Reishi (Ganoderma Lucidum) has been called the mushroom of immortality; in Chinese this mushroom is known as Ling Zhi. Native to Europe,Asia, and North America, Reishi has been revered in China for thousands of years.

It can be found in varying climates throughout the world, preferring tropical, sub-tropical and temperate climates where deciduous hardwood trees are abundant. Despite its adaptability to different climates and topography, Reishi remains elusive.

Only two or three out of 10,000 mature hardwood trees have Reishi growing on them, with oak and maple being the most common.

The Fruiting bodies of this mushroom emerge from the substrate on which they grow to become the part of the mushroom we recognize. They’re the above-ground part that we can see when we walk through the woods, and they’re also what have been traditionally foraged and consumed, in food and supplements.

The Reishi Mushroom Gaia Herbs® uses is sourced from Nammex from their Certified Organic growing operations in China.​ They pioneered Organic Certification for mushroom growers in China.

These mushrooms are grown in remote mountainous regions in open air farms more similar to the their natural environment. However, they do not contain any substrates or mycellium, only fruiting bodies.

Cordyceps Sinensis were so highly valued in traditional Chinese herbalism that they were exclusively available to the emperor’s family in ancient China. Recently, cultivated varieties (Cordyceps Militaris) have been developed. The fruiting bodies of these are cultivated on nutritious substrate, and they are therefore vegan.

Research has shown that C. Militaris and C. Sinensis provide similar support, and they are used interchangeably in traditional Chinese herbalism and other branches of herbalism.
