Product Description

NOW Foods processes reishi fruiting bodies and concentrates polysaccharides and triterpenes. The 100-serving bottle suits long adaptogen protocols.

What We Like

  • Low price per serving at high count
  • Dual extract covers water- and alcohol-soluble fractions
  • Vegan and free from magnesium stearate

What We’re Missing

  • 200 mg per serving is on the conservative side
  • Earthy taste if capsules are opened

Usage Recommendation

1–2 capsules daily with a meal; for immune protocols, may increase to 3 capsules.
