Also known as “the mushroom of immortality,” the reishi mushroom is an adaptogen that supports resiliency and life force for every individual. Reishi shines in many ways, but she is most known for helping the body to combat stress on a spiritual and physical level. She supports nerve growth and cognitive function, aka brain power, and is also an important ally for those with allergies, particularly histamine reactions. She supports healthy liver function and the immune system. Perhaps most famous for producing "reishi babies," a reishi baby is a phenomenon that has developed a cult following of mothers who claim that by taking reishi during pregnancy, their babies are more calm, content, and wise!
