What are reishi mushrooms?

Reishi mushrooms (also known as lingzhi mushrooms or Ganoderma lucidum) grow on decaying hardwood trees found in tropical and subtropical rainforest regions in Asia, Africa and the Americas. They often feature a reddish or red-brown cap and can be found in the wild or cultivated. Tea from these mushrooms has traditionally been associated with a long list of health benefits, but these are not currently supported by scientific study.

What are the reported health benefits of reishi mushroom tea?

Reishi mushrooms have been used for millennia in traditional medicine, as they are believed to improve immunity. However, no significant evidence supports a direct link between reishi mushroom tea, supplements or extracts and any specific health benefits.
