SEVA Reishi Mushroom Triple Extracted Tincture

Reishi mushrooms (Ganoderma lucidum) have been a part of some traditional medicine practices for more than 2,000 years to boost the immune system, help fight cancer, and relieve symptoms of many other health conditions. They are very rare mushrooms that grow at the base of deciduous trees and contain polysaccharides, peptides, and triterpenoids, which provide some of their unique health benefits. They also contain dietary fiber and various minerals, vitamins and amino acids.

Wild. Organic. Non GMO. Vegan. All of our SEVA products are grown in our own organic permaculture farm, foraged and extracted with love for the Earth and all inhabitants.

BENEFITS
- Boost the immune system - Historically, reishi mushrooms have been used as an immune system enhancer—they're even used in Asian cultures as an immunostimulant for patients with HIV and cancer. The beta glucans (complex sugars) in the mushroom are believed to stimulate the immune system to prevent infection.
- Alleviate stress and fatigue - Reishi mushrooms are adaptogens, plants that help the body combat stress. In one study of 132 patients suffering from neurasthenia (a condition characterized by physical and mental exhaustion), consumption of a compound found in reishi mushrooms was shown to improve aches, pains, and feelings of irritability.
- They may be an ally against cancer - Numerous studies have been done on reishi mushrooms' effect on cancer cells. The results have been intriguing - one small study in the Journal of Oncology found that tumors shrunk in three cancer patients that were taking reishi mushrooms. Additional research indicates that the mushrooms could alleviate chemotherapy-induced nausea and improve the efficacy of radiation therapy.
- Help lower blood pressure - Compounds in reishi mushrooms may help keep high blood pressure at bay, according to a study carried out in 2014.
- Good for the brain - Research indicates that reishi mushrooms may be therapeutic for neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease and may also be able to protect the brain from seizures.
- Allergy-fighting potential - Some studies have shown that reishi mushrooms may have antihistamine effects and can improve the body’s oxygen supply, which is key to those suffering from chronic and allergic asthma.
- Contain cholesterol-lowering compounds - Both triterpenes and beta glucans may reduce total cholesterol and LDL- commonly referred to as "bad cholesterol."
- Helpful for type 2 diabetes - A medical study has shown that Reishi mushrooms were found to decrease blood sugar. Plus, after seeing noticeably reduced kidney stress and lower blood-sugar levels in test subjects, a different group of researchers concluded that reishi mushrooms may prevent or halt kidney complications in type 2 diabetes patients.
- Improve liver function - In another study, Reishi mushroom spores were found to promote liver cell regeneration, improving the organ’s ability to shuttle toxins out of the body. A healthy liver can also be critical to supporting other health benefits mentioned above, including managing blood sugar and allergies.
- Rich in antioxidants - Despite the fact that their other nickname is "the mushroom of immortality," reishi mushrooms won't, in fact, make you live forever. But they do have antioxidant properties that can reduce the risk of disease and premature aging - and we can never have too many foods like that in our diets, right?
