Reishi (Mannentake / Lingzhi)
霊芝 / 万年茸 (Reishi / Mannentake)
Pourquoi sourcer au Japon
Nagano and Niigata's high-altitude cultivation produces reishi with triterpene concentrations the wild Chinese supply rarely matches; domestic Japanese R&D drives modern spore-extract methodology.

Produit fini typique
Premium immune-support supplements, functional coffee blends, sleep-support nutraceuticals.

À propos de cet ingrédient
A foundational TCM/Kampo medicinal mushroom (Ganoderma lucidum). Japanese cultivation, primarily in Nagano and Niigata, evolved beyond traditional wild collection into standardised indoor cultivation in the 1970s. Modern Japanese reishi suppliers produce both fruiting-body and spore (hoshi) extracts, with the spore variant carrying premium pricing on the back of triterpene concentration. FFC notifications support immune-support positioning domestically. Substantial export to North American supplement and functional-coffee categories.
