REISHI
Historical records surrounding the medicinal use of Reishi mushrooms extend over thousands of years. Traditionally in China, it was employed religiously by Taoist monks to attain a long and healthy life. Reishi is noted for its adaptogenic, immunomodulating and anti-inflammatory activity and is often prescribed for patients with autoimmune conditions, chronic bacterial and viral infections, inflammatory disorders, for cancer prevention and as an adjunct to chemotherapy or radiotherapy. Additionally, Reishi has an affinity for the liver, protecting against hepatotoxicity. Reishi is considered to be a primary phytomedicine for immune dysregulation and fatigue due to chronic disease.SHIITAKE
Shiitake is one of the most used medicinal mushrooms in the Orient due to its powerful effects in reducing the risk of chronic disease development and progression, and to prevent premature ageing. Shiitake is considered a nutritive functional food and is highly regarded for its production of the beta-glucan lentinan, which is responsible for some of the mushroom’s anticancer activity and bioactive effects upon the immune system. Shiitake is an immune strengthening tonic with extensive organ-protective activity; especially indicated in cases involving chronic or recurring illness.MAITAKE
Maitake is prized in Traditional Chinese Medicine as a medicinal mushroom to enhance Qi, fortify the immune system and improve vitality. Maitake was also treasured for its longevity properties and was thought to bring vigour to the body. This medicinal mushroom is a profound immunomodulating phytomedicine that helps to fortify bodily defences against disease-causing pathogens and agents and is specifically indicated in cases of cancer and cancer prevention, as well as hepatic/endocrine disturbances.TURKEY TAIL

TCM use of Turkey Tail includes the treatment of cough, asthma, bronchitis, cancer, cirrhosis, hepatitis and rheumatoid arthritis. Turkey Tail also has a long traditional use as a medicine in the treatment of cancer and illnesses related to immune deficiency. It is a key cancer therapy adjunct phytomedicine and may be utilised to reduce side effects of conventional cancer treatments.CORDYCEPS
Cordyceps is valued as a tonic herb in Traditional Chinese Medicine and is used to treat a wide range of disorders including respiratory, kidney, liver, cardiovascular, and hyperlipidaemia, as well as being used as a tonic to promote energy, reduce fatigue, and strengthen the body after serious illness.
