What is reishi mushroom?
Reishi is the commonly used name for Ganoderma lucidum.
It is a wood-growing mushroom that naturally develops on trees and decaying wood. Reishi has a long history of use in Asian traditions.
Today, Ganoderma lucidum is also used as an ingredient in dietary supplements.
ReishiMax GLp does not simply contain powdered mushroom. Instead, it uses a standardised extract, helping to control the level of characteristic compounds naturally found in reishi.
What does standardised reishi extract mean?
One of the most important features of ReishiMax GLp is that its extract is standardised for:
- triterpenes;
- polysaccharides.
Standardisation means that the extract is prepared to meet specific parameters relating to selected compounds that are characteristic of the raw material.
This is an important difference between a standardised extract and a product containing only ordinary mushroom powder.
Polysaccharides in reishi
Polysaccharides are a group of naturally occurring compounds found in mushrooms, among other sources.
They are one of the groups of compounds for which the extract used in ReishiMax GLp is standardised.
When comparing reishi supplements, it is therefore worth looking not only at the presence of Ganoderma lucidum itself, but also at the way the extract has been prepared and standardised.
Triterpenes in reishi
Another important group of compounds naturally associated with reishi mushrooms is triterpenes.
The extract used in ReishiMax GLp is also standardised for its triterpene content.
This means the product provides not only a specified amount of Ganoderma lucidum extract, but also an extract produced according to defined quality parameters.
ReishiMax GLp and the body’s natural defence mechanisms
The immune system is a complex network of cells and mechanisms involved in the body’s natural defence processes.
Reishi is traditionally associated with the body’s natural defence mechanisms. However, health claims relating to botanical and mushroom ingredients can be subject to different rules depending on the individual country.
For this reason, ReishiMax GLp is best described primarily as a dietary supplement containing standardised Ganoderma lucidum extract, without attributing medicinal or disease-prevention properties to the product.
How much reishi extract does ReishiMax GLp contain?
The recommended daily serving provides:
2 capsules = 1 g of reishi mushroom extract – Ganoderma lucidum.
The extract forms the main part of the product formula.
With the recommended use of one capsule twice a day, the daily intake therefore provides 1 g of reishi extract.
Who may be interested in ReishiMax GLp?
The product may be suitable for people who:
- are looking for a dietary supplement containing reishi;
- prefer standardised extracts;
- want to add Ganoderma lucidum to their daily supplementation routine;
- are interested in traditionally used natural ingredients;
- already use other Pharmanex products;
- prefer a convenient capsule format;
- are looking for a simple and concentrated formula.
ReishiMax GLp vs ordinary reishi powder – what is the difference?
Reishi products can differ significantly depending on the form of the raw material used.
Simpler products may contain only ground mushroom powder. ReishiMax GLp instead contains Ganoderma lucidum extract standardised for triterpenes and polysaccharides.
This standardisation is one of the key features to consider when comparing different reishi products.
How should ReishiMax GLp be taken?
Recommended use:
Take 1 capsule twice daily with food.
This equals:
2 capsules per day.
At this recommended intake, one pack containing 60 capsules lasts approximately 30 days.
Should ReishiMax GLp be taken with food?
Yes.
The recommended use is 1 capsule twice daily with a meal.
This makes it easy to include the product in a regular routine, for example with breakfast and dinner.
How long does one pack last?
One pack contains 60 capsules.
At the recommended intake:
2 capsules per day → approximately 30 days of use.
One pack therefore provides roughly one month of supplementation.
