Reishi has been consumed since the dawn of Chinese civilization for its various health-promoting properties. Continuous consumption of Reishi helps to support healthy functioning of our whole body system, supporting the immune system, and helping to promote healthy blood circulation, digestion, metabolism, reducing fatigue, enhancing alertness, helping people handle stress better, etc., in normal healthy individuals. Reishi Spore Oil is a superb tonic for those who wish to promote their health, age slowly and preserve their youthfulness.

Every growing season, the Reishi mushroom produces its “fruiting body,” that part which we see and think about when we think “mushroom.” At the end of the growing season, Reishi produces “spores,” which are like microscopic seeds. Each Reishi "fruiting body" (mushroom cap) produces millions of spores and these spores form a coating of lovely chestnut brown powder all over the fruiting body and beyond. These spores are collected. They cannot be used in this raw state because each spore has an impermeable cell wall that humans cannot digest. However, the spores are extremely rich in phytochemicals, so scientists have developed an effective way to “crack” these cell walls, allowing the material inside to be extracted. The spores are rich in Reishi spore oil, and this oil is of great health value. This oil can be extracted using high-tech methods.

Dragon Herbs Reishi Spore Oil is the pure essence of Reishi spores, the most bioactive Reishi material. Dragon Herbs Reishi Spore Oil is a golden, semi-transparent oil. Reishi Spore Oil is extracted directly from cracked-shell Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) spores by advanced proprietary CO2 super-critical extraction technology. Reishi Spore Oil is the concentrated essence of all the lipid-soluble substances contained in Reishi spores, including all triterpenes, nucleosides, andsome water-soluble constituents as well. The essential nutrients of Reishi are contained in its spore. Reishi Spore Oil Softgel is a superb tonic for those who wish to promote their health, age slowly and preserve their youthfulness.

Reishi Spore Oil is easily absorbed by our body.

It is VERY concentrated. 100 kg dried Reishi fruiting bodies (mushrooms) produces approximately just 1 kg of spores. And it takes over 100 kg of spores to produce only 1 kg of spore oil. Cracked-shell Reishi spores can be up to 70 times more therapeutic than the whole original Reishi mushroom of the same weight. Ron Teeguarden’s Reishi Spore Oil Softgel is 70 times more concentrated than Reishi powdered extract.

Just one Reishi Spore Oil Softgel (500 mg) of Reishi Spore Oil contains over 150 mg of triterpenes, the most active constituent of Reishi oil.

Why are Reishi Spores so expensive?

Collection of it is very meticulous as it is a super fine dust-like powder on the Reishi mushroom. It takes a large amount of Duanwood Reishi – 700 lbs –to get just 1lb of spore oil. Reishi spores themselves are 70X more potent than the mushroom, and oil is 700X more potent – and more immune potent. Our Reishi spores are collected from organically grown Reishi mushrooms grown in a pristine forest on a remote mountain, fed only by a fresh mountain stream. The Reishi spores are thus pristine and the technology used to extract the oil is state of the art in the world. We use no filler oils to dilute our oil.

Side effects are very uncommon. If you are allergic to mushrooms, consult a professional herbalist or your physician before using this or any other herbal product that may contain fungal material. If you believe you are having an allergic reaction after consuming Reishi, stop using this product and consult your physician and/or herbalist for further advice. Negative reactions to Duanwood Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) are extremely rare, but if they were to occur, the symptoms will generally disappear upon discontinuation of the product. However, we advise that you consult your herbalist or physician.

Remember Ron Teeguarden’s “First Rule of Tonic Herbalism,” summed up in a single word – Compliance. If you don’t take the herbs, they won’t work.”
