Reishi Mushroom Extract by 7 Gates Apothecary promotes immune resilience, emotional calm, and graceful aging through its powerful adaptogenic and Shen-tonifying properties rooted in classical Chinese medicine.

Reishi Mushroom: Tranquil Longevity by 7 Gates Apothecary is a therapeutic extract derived from Ganoderma lucidum, known as Ling Zhi (灵芝) in Traditional Chinese Medicine. This full-spectrum tincture is produced through a tri-extraction method using water, organic alcohol, and USP-grade vegetable glycerin to capture its full range of beneficial compounds.

Reishi has been revered for centuries in both Daoist and herbal traditions as a longevity tonic that supports the Heart, Liver, and Lung systems. Known for its ability to calm the spirit (Shen), nourish Heart Blood, and support immune balance, it is often used in formulas for anxiety, insomnia, fatigue, and immune challenges.

This adaptogenic extract may support:

  • Emotional balance, restful sleep, and mental clarity
  • Immune system modulation and cancer adjunctive care
  • Healthy blood pressure, cholesterol, and liver function
  • Allergic responses, asthma, and respiratory health
  • Recovery from chronic stress and adrenal fatigue

Formulated by neuro-mycology expert Dr. Doug Wingate, all 7 Gates Apothecary mushroom extracts are crafted from 100% organic source material. These premium tinctures reflect a synthesis of ancient herbalism and modern scientific research. Gluten-free and GMO-free (unless otherwise noted).
