In the Know
The Reishi mushroom, also known as the Lingzhi mushroom, has been given lofty titles throughout history, including the “mushroom of immortality,” and "divine plant of longevity." This highly respected fungus makes its home in East Asia, and has been an important part of Chinese culture for more than 2,000 years. In fact, reishi is the oldest mushroom to be used among herbalists the world over.
What Exactly is Reishi Mushroom
This highly beneficial fungus likes dead things … really! Reishi grows on trees that are either dead or dying, and, ironically, prefers a particular type of hemlock. (Socrates is said to have committed suicide by ingesting a drink made with hemlock.) It boasts a shiny, red hue that gets darker as it ages. These mushrooms are loyalists, committing to growing on the same tree for years.
If you’re into etymology, the two-thousand-year-old Chinese history of the name of the lingzhi fungus provides enthusiasts with some intrigue. In the Chinese language, lingzhi is a compound. Ling means ‘spirit, spiritual; soul; miraculous; sacred; divine,’ and zhi translates to ‘plant of longevity; fungus; mushroom.’ * Put together, the name truly does make sense, and tell you all you really need to know about this well-reputed mushroom.
The Health Benefits of Reishi Mushroom
A compound isolated from the Lingzhi mushroom has been shown to contain a similar chemical make-up to that of steroid hormones. The medical field has tested this component, and some results indicate that reishi mushroom has the potential to stimulate one’s immune system.
