Reishi - Honey Pearls

Immune potentiating
Powerful Shen tonic

The bioactive constituents within the mushroom are considered as potent agents for enhancing the immune system, as well as potentially having high antioxidant and anti-microbial capacities [1-3].

In China the Reishi mushroom is regarded as a symbol of health, longevity, success and divine power. It has been used for many millennia in Chinese medicine to various diseases [1-2].

The bioactive constituents within the mushroom are considered as potent agents for enhancing the immune system, as well as potentially having high antioxidant and anti-microbial capacities [1-3].

The mushroom is also well known for its beneficial effects on sleep and relaxation. [4-5].

Our honey pearls are raw, unique, and based on a 2000 year old preparation method that optimises the absorption of mushrooms. By making our mushrooms into Honey Pearls, the active constituents of the mushrooms are absorbed slowly and gradually over time, making them highly bioavailable and slow to release. The strength of our mushrooms is therefore in the delivery. We call this real deal herbalism!

We take the whole fruiting body, and powder it ourselves in Australia - this means that the mushrooms are correctly identified and guaranteed. When you start with an extract or powder (which we refuse to do), you can't be guaranteed of the purity of the raw ingredients. Our products don't have any unnecessary additives, sugars or carriers - just the WHOLE mushroom combined with honey.

Honey Pearls make the mushrooms more bioavailable than other preparation methods by bypassing the stomach, and therefore not being consumed by digestive acids. This enables them to travel further down the digestive tract and into the small intestine, at which point, they pass through the walls of the intestines and are absorbed directly into the bloodstream, and then systematically throughout the body. This administration method has been shown to be more effective than other administration methods at treating chronic conditions, of which mushrooms seek to remedy, and has been used in Chinese medicine for millennia.
