The different types of

Reishi

In ancient times, only wild Reishi was available. Reishi was classified by color into 6 types:
Red, Green, White, Black, Yellow and Purple.

In 1972, researchers at Kyoto University in Japan successfully cultivated Reishi in the laboratory. From a single species, Ganoderma Lucidum (Red Reishi), all six colors could be grown by varying the temperature, humidity, carbon dioxide content, and the available nutrients. The six types of Reishi are thus shown to be one species.

Red, Green, White, Black, Yellow and Purple.

Wild Reishi is extremely rare. Only one or two mushrooms can be found on a hill. Due to damage by insects and weather, the quality of wild Reishi is unpredictable. Only the fruit body can be harvested, when the active ingredients have already decreased. The dried mushrooms may not have the potency of the fresh mushroom.

When buying wild Reishi, expertise is required in order not to confuse Reishi with the hundreds of other mushrooms (some of which are poisonous). After it matures, the fruit body is hardened by fibers which make it more difficult to extract and digest the active ingredients. The spores are of microscopic dimensions, similar to the size of bacteria. They are protected by two layers of hardened cell walls. These cell walls trap the active ingredients inside and are indigestible.

Although wild Reishi fruit body and the spores are all effective products, our ancestors had to use a large quantity of Reishi to get a little benefit. As it was impossible to cultivate, this rare mushroom was available only to emperors.

Modern bio-engineering technology has made Reishi available to the general public in large quantities. The quality can be carefully controlled by providing the best conditions and sufficient nutrients. The largest amount of active ingredients exists in the mycelium, and that the mycelium is more digestible. The extraction process can be timed at the precise stage when the
mycelium contains the largest amount of active ingredients. Fresh mycelium is available, and there is no chance for mistaken identity.

It is not commonly known that the coffee berry can be fermented.

We all know coffee, the roasted beans of the coffee plant? Coffee or Coffea. The word "coffee" may have been derived from the Ethiopian "keffa" or the Turkish equivalent found in their word for coffea the word "qahveh." The Arabs still call the beverage "qahwa," meaning "strength."

One of the characteristics of the coffee bean is that it ferments well. Fermentation is the process of making alcohol from organics with high sugar content

The word "qahwa" in Arabic means wine. Qahwa is the origin of the word coffee.

In Europe, coffee was called "the wine of Arabia."

In Ethiopia and some Arabian countries fermenting and wine making from the coffee berries continues today

• TURKISH COFFEE ; Turkish coffee is not a degree of roast or an indicator of Turkish heritage, although usually dark Turkish is not a degree of roast. Turkish coffee means "super extra fine grind". Coffee beans ground to a very fine powder. Typically, the coffee bean is roasted to a dark brown to attain a brittle quality increasing the beans ability to be ground fine. Turkish coffee can be a blended two or three bean affair or flavored, I assure you a nice crispy "Master Dry Roasted Dark" bean of the highest quality ground and fresh brewed in the grand Turkish style will amaze you.

• ESPRESSO ; Espresso is a particular and very distinct way of making coffee. It stands on its own. Espresso means at its root or origin EXPRESS. Modern "high end" machines are a wonder, steel tank of super heated water. Freshly ground coffee is packed with a small damper into a handle containing a small sieve. The handle is fitted with precision and steaming hot water is allowed to force through the grounds and the delicious essential golden brown mosaic that is crème forms.

Red Reishi Mushroom / Ganoderma lucidum / Ling Zhi: 'Red Reishi Mushroom General Information
Even though there are several different colors of Reishi mushrooms, Red Reishi is the one that is most well known and used. For over 4000 years, Red Reishi mushrooms have been most revered in traditional Chinese medicine equaling ginseng as a premier substance for the attainment of radiant health, longevity, and spiritual attainment. Traditionally, Reishi has been used as an anti-aging herb to treat many diseases and disorders. Daoist traditionalists rever this mushroom as the elixir of immortality, claiming it promotes calmness, centeredness, balance, and inner awareness and strength. Reishi contains sterols, coumarin, mannitol, polysaccharides, and triterpenoids called ganoderic acids. It is thought that ganoderic acid lowers blood pressure, LDL (low density lipoprotein cholesterol), and triglyceride levels. Those triterpenoids also play an important role in lowering the risk of coronary artery disease.'"
