01

About this ingredient

Reishi refers to Ganoderma species used in traditional and modern mushroom products, often Ganoderma lucidum or Ganoderma lingzhi. The fruiting body is typically dried and processed into powder or extract because the mushroom itself is woody and bitter.

Reishi products can vary by species, growing method, fruiting body versus mycelium, extraction method and concentration. These details should be documented carefully to avoid vague ingredient claims.

For Eluneya, reishi is suitable for a traceability-focused product passport because the customer can see the mushroom material, processing method, source and supporting quality documentation connected to a specific batch.

02

Benefits

Reishi is traditionally valued in East Asian mushroom traditions and is commonly chosen by consumers interested in functional mushroom routines. It is often positioned around calm, balance or resilience, but these descriptions need careful handling.

Eluneya should avoid disease, immunity or stress-treatment claims unless approved. Safer wording focuses on traditional mushroom heritage, bitter character, product form and transparent sourcing.
