Contemporary research hints at its potential to enhance sleep quality and reduce stress, yet concrete evidence remains elusive. This study aims to bridge the gap between folklore and science, assessing Reishi's true impact on sleep and stress. It's time to demystify Reishi's real potential in enhancing our nightly rest and daytime vitality.

Product Description: UK-grown organic Reishi tincture, cloned in our lab and extracted in the tincture kitchen on our mushroom farm in Somerset. We are the only organic certified UK-native functional mushroom producer currently in the UK. What makes Bristol Fungarium's Reishi tincture unique? 100% Organic Certified The only UK-grown organic certified Reishi Mushroom Tincture. All our mushrooms are grown on an organic mushroom farm in the green county of Somerset UK, and are certified by the Soil Association. Our organic functional mushroom tinctures are triple extracted with distilled water and organic UK ethanol. Grown in Somerset, UK Our Reishi is grown on our organic mushroom farm, where we crop almost half a ton per month. We also prepare the tinctures and pack the orders in-house - meaning origin can be traced back to one location in the clean green pastures of Somerset with absolutely no tampering by third parties. Triple Extracted, 1: 4 Ratio (Super Strength) We carry out two hot water extractions and a final organic ethanol extraction to gain access to all the bioactive compounds responsible for Reishi’s beneficial properties. Many capsules and supplements are shipped across the world in powder form as it is a more commercially viable way of transporting extracted products. However, our tinctures are prepared on-site at a 1:4 ratio (1g of mushrooms to every 4ml of water). Tinctures have a longer shelf life than capsules, provide a faster absorption rate, enable flexible dosage, and are easy to prepare by simply taking one squeeze of mushroom tincture twice per day either directly under the tongue or into a short glass of water. Fully Transparent & Short Supply Chain Each bottle of our organic Reishi tincture contains 128g of Reishi fruiting body*. Because our supply chain is so much shorter, and we prepare our tincture in comparatively small batches, you can be sure that the extracts you buy from us haven't lost bio-active compounds due to sitting around for a long time or being shipped halfway across the world. *fresh value Bottle size: 50ml We recommend speaking with a qualified medical practitioner if you are on any medication and unsure of how it may interact.
