Reishi Fruiting Body Extract Capsules

Fruiting body only. Dual extract. Fully verified.

A considered Reishi extract, not generic mushroom powder.
Measured, analytically verified, and made entirely from fruiting body material.

A high-quality Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) extract combining a 1:1 fruiting body extract with a concentrated 15:1 dual extract.

60 Capsules | Vegan Capsules

• 400 mg Reishi extract per capsule

• 100% fruiting body, no mycelium

• 50:50 blend of 1:1 and 15:1 extract fractions

• Beta-glucans above 30%

• Triterpenes above 2%

• Every batch verified by LC-ESI-QTOF-MS

• Vegan capsules, no unnecessary fillers

Overview

Reishi has one of the most distinctive chemical profiles within our mushroom range, which is why extraction and verification matter.

This product uses only Reishi fruiting bodies and combines two extract fractions rather than simply placing powdered mushroom into a capsule.

Half of the extract is a 1:1 preparation. The other half is a concentrated 15:1 dual extract.

Each capsule provides 400 mg of the finished Reishi extract.

• Fruiting body only

• No grain-grown mycelium

• Blended 1:1 and 15:1 extract fractions

• Standardised for measurable beta-glucans and triterpenes

• Batch verified through advanced compound analysis

Background

Reishi has been known and prepared in East Asia for centuries and is one of the mushrooms most strongly associated with traditional mushroom preparations.

It looks and behaves very differently from an everyday culinary mushroom.

The mature fruiting body is firm and woody, with a distinctive lacquered appearance. Because of that structure, Reishi has traditionally been prepared using processes such as prolonged hot-water extraction rather than simply eaten like an ordinary mushroom.

Modern extraction gives us a more controlled way to work with the material.

For this product, we selected a fruiting-body-only preparation with defined extract fractions and measurable specification markers.

We then go a step further by verifying the compound profile analytically.

The result is a Reishi product built around the material itself rather than around the claims commonly attached to the Reishi name.

Why This Product

• Uses 100% Reishi fruiting body

• Avoids grain-based mycelium

• Combines 1:1 and concentrated 15:1 extract fractions

• Standardised for measurable beta-glucans, polysaccharides and triterpenes

• Uses analytical compound verification rather than relying on extraction ratio alone

Key Characteristics

• Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) fruiting body extract

• 50% 1:1 extract powder

• 50% 15:1 dual extract powder

• Beta-glucans above 30%

• Polysaccharides above 35%

• Triterpenes above 2%

• Fruiting body identity verified using NMR

How It Fits

Reishi can be taken as a standalone mushroom extract or incorporated into a wider mushroom routine.

Our previous Four Mushroom Blend contained 100 mg of Reishi in each capsule, providing 200 mg in its two-capsule daily serving.

Each capsule of this standalone Reishi extract contains 400 mg.

At the two-capsule serving, that provides 800 mg of Reishi extract and gives you the option to make Reishi itself the main mushroom within your routine.

You can also pair it with Lion’s Mane, Chaga or Cordyceps while following the recommended intake for each product.

Composition / Structure

Reishi contains a complex matrix of naturally occurring fungal compounds rather than one isolated ingredient.

The extract specification includes:

• Beta-glucans

• Polysaccharides

• Triterpenes

• Ganoderic acids

• Lucidenic acids

• Ergosterol

• Ergothioneine

The complete extract is retained rather than reducing the product to a single isolated compound.

Compound Profile & Verification

Each batch is tested using LC-ESI-QTOF-MS.

Certificate of Analysis data is available for compounds including:

• Adenosine

• D-Mannitol

• Ergosterol

• Ergothioneine

• Ganoderic acid A

• Ganoderic acid B

• Ganoderic acid C1

• Ganoderic acid C2

• Ganoderic acid C6

• Ganoderic acid D

• Lucidenic acid D

This allows us to look beyond simple mushroom identity and verify the presence of characteristic compounds within the extract.

Processing / Production

The finished Reishi extract combines:

• 50% 1:1 fruiting body extract

• 50% 15:1 dual fruiting body extract

The dual extract fraction uses both aqueous and alcohol-based extraction stages to work with different components of the fruiting body.

The resulting material is dried into a consistent extract powder before encapsulation.

Quality & Sourcing

• Certified organic Reishi extract

• 100% fruiting body

• Fruiting body identity verified using NMR

• Every batch subject to LC-ESI-QTOF-MS compound verification

• Extract produced in China

• Encapsulated in EU

• Encapsulation carried out under GMP, HACCP and organic-certified systems

• Vegan HPMC capsule shell

• No unnecessary fillers

How It Compares

• Uses fruiting body rather than grain-grown mycelium

• Combines two defined extract fractions

• Provides measurable beta-glucan and triterpene specifications

• Verifies characteristic compounds rather than assuming their presence

• Gives Reishi its own place rather than fixing it at one-quarter of a mushroom blend

Who It’s For

• Individuals looking for a standalone Reishi extract

• Those who prefer fruiting-body mushroom products

• Users who prioritise extraction quality and analytical verification

• Existing mushroom users moving beyond fixed blends

• Those building a more personalised mushroom routine

How to Use

• Take 2–3 capsules daily with water

• Can be taken with or without food

• Use according to the directions on the label

• Can be used alone or alongside other mushroom products while following the directions for each
