Reishi contains several major constituents, including sterols, coumarin, mannitol, polysa- ccharides, and triterpenoids called ganoderic acids. Ganoderic acids may lower blood pressure as well as decrease LDL (bad) cholesterol. These specific triterpenoids also help reduce blood platelets from sticking together - an important factor in lowering the risk for coronary artery disease. Two controlled clinical trials have investigated the effects of reishi on high blood pressure in humans and both found it could lower blood pressure significantly compared to a placebo or controls...

Testimonials
I found Reishi Essence through a referral and I am glad I acted upon learning more about Reishi. Today most of my family members are taking the Mikei Reishi extracts. I definitely notice that none of my family members were sick for the last 10 months. We usually catch the common cold and flu throughout the year. My 73 year old mother is praising the Reishi for giving her more energy and the overall well being feelings she is having. I know it is a small investment, but it is worth it. I am pretty sure I will be a long term customer of Reishi Essence for its great products at the lowest price on the internet.

Selection of your Red Reishi
In order to assist you as you plan to make a smart investment for better health, we put together some guidelines to educate you in choosing the right red reishi products. When shopping for a reishi product, we recommend that you consider the following properties:
Origin: Country where the product is manufactured. Beware of south-east asian manufacturers as their quality control differs from the standard we've come to expect. Consider Japan or USA made products.
Type: Insist on Red Reishi as it is proven to possess medicinal values.
Part used: Fruit body and mycelium.
Essence extraction method: Hot Water Extract - the most traditional extraction method preserving its natural state at a higher concentration. Advanced pulverization is becoming more popular with today's sophisticated technologies.
% of polysaccharide: (the most common measurement used to indicate the level of concentration). The higher the better.
Total weight: of red reishi used to produce the final product.
Good Manufacturing Process certification alone would not suffice as the seal does not guarantee a great product at the end, but basically showing a company followed some industry standard processes. Third party certifications are desired.
Beware of mix mushrooms ingredients claiming better quality. The content of the expensive beneficial Reishi is usually low thus the low price.
Beware of Reishi spore products as they have been reported as scams. See this official announcement from the chinese government outlining its acknowledgement of false advertisement of such products.
If the origin of the mushrooms and manufacturing processes are dubious, they probably are.
The content of questionable reishi in coffee or tea based products is so low to reap any benefits out of it. Coffee or tea should probably be considered a delicious beverage as they were originally intented to be.
If you can't get all of the factual information you need from a vendor, stay away from their products.
Make sure to find out the total cost of your purchase as there are often inflated shipping or handling fees that will negate any advertised sales or low price offers.
Last, but not least, buy from a reputable online store.
When it comes to your health, there really is no second choice. Remember, use good judgement and, when in doubt, rely on the saying "you get what you pay for".
