Support overall health and well-being with Swanson Reishi Mushroom Extract. For more than 2,000 years, traditional Chinese herbalists have valued reishi as one of nature's premier tonic mushrooms for promoting health and wellness. We now know that reishi mushroom contains several beneficial nutraceutical compounds, including polysaccharides, sterols, triterpenoids and coumarin. Mushrooms such as reishi deliver antioxidant defense for the liver and immune system and also promote healthy aging.
Polysaccharides are compounds that the body uses for cellular communication and energy. They help support immune system function and may even demonstrate prebiotic potential which could further promote immune, digestive and overall wellness. Swanson Reishi Mushroom Extract is standardized to 10% polysaccharide concentration for guaranteed potency in each capsule.
