Medicinal mushrooms such as Reishi, Shiitake and Cordyceps support immunity, reduce stress and enhance resilience. Discover their traditional and modern uses.
Medicinal mushrooms – also called vital mushrooms – are functional fungi used for centuries in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and increasingly supported by modern science. They contain bioactive compounds such as beta-glucans, polysaccharides, triterpenes, and enzymes that show immune-regulating, anti-inflammatory, and adaptogenic properties.
Most researched species include:
- Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) – calming, immune-balancing, antioxidant
- Shiitake (Lentinula edodes) – metabolism support, cholesterol-lowering
- Cordyceps (Cordyceps sinensis) – energy boosting, stress-regulating
- Plus: Maitake, Hericium, Chaga, Agaricus blazei, etc.
