What is MicoVital ® Reishi?
MicoVital ® Reishi is a dietary supplement based on the extract of the reishi mushroom (Ganoderma lucidum), of which the fruiting body is used exclusively. It contains more than 400 active substances, including beta-glucans and triterpenes such as ganoderic acid, lucidones and lucidenic acid, which contribute to natural immune defenses. In addition, reishi has traditionally been used to promote rest
.
For the extract, an exclusive method of cultivation is used in the form of an antler, on birch bark, which maximizes the surface area of the fruiting body and, therefore, its yield. The extraction is performed by ultrasound (UAE), with hot water and alcohol. With this innovative extraction method, we are able to maximize the bioavailability of the compounds of interest found in reishi
.
The product is available in bottles with the liquid extract, which contains the reishi extract in a convenient presentation: a 50 ml bottle. It can be taken by adding it to coffee, tea or smoothies, or directly sublingually.
Ideal to take before going to sleep and promote rest.
With Nordic Mushrooms seal.
What are medicinal mushrooms?
Although until a few years ago fungi were classified as vegetables, today they are considered to constitute an independent kingdom of equal rank as animals and plants. With a high nutritional profile of proteins, micronutrients and important bioactive compounds, they are an important nutritional tool for taking care
of our health.
They represent an important source of biologically active polysaccharides in fruiting bodies or in some cases sterile heads. Most of these polysaccharides belong to the beta-glucan group; they have beta- (1—>3) bonds in the glucan backbone and additional beta- (1—>6) branch points that are responsible for the properties of these
medicinal fungi.
Advantages of using fruiting bodies and sterile heads vs mycelium
In the MicoVital ® line of medicinal mushrooms, we only use the fruiting bodies of fungi, using birch bark from the forests of Finland as a substrate. As an exception, we have the Chaga mushroom, which is collected from birch trees in the forests of Finnish Lapland and whose sterile heads are used, and the Cordiceps, which is a fungus that concentrates the compounds of interest in the mycelium.
Ultrasound-Assisted Extraction (UAE)
Ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) is an innovative extraction technique that significantly improves the performance of compounds of interest in the final extract
.
During extraction, mechanical vibrations are sent through the liquid suspension that cause enormous pressure flows on or within small areas located in the liquid suspension.
This causes what is known as acoustic or ultrasonic cavitation, which forms small pressure bubbles on the surface of the mushroom cells present in the solvent; these eventually implode or “collapse”, causing an opening in the cell wall of the fungus and exposing the internal constituents to the solvent of the extract.
In this way, the UAE is similar to a key that “opens the treasure chest” enclosed within the walls of fungal cells, easily releasing compounds of interest and optimizing extraction.
Reishi
Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) is possibly the best-known medicinal mushroom today, although it has been used for more than 2000 years.
Also known as lingzhi in Chinese, it is a revered mushroom in Asia that has balancing properties for body and spirit. In Spain we know it as a “pipe” because of its characteristic shape, it has an intense and bright tone that can range from red to mahogany to orange tones. Although edible, it offers a bitter taste and a leathery texture
.
Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) fruiting body extract contains polysaccharides (beta-glucans) and triterpenes such as ganoderic acid, lucidones and lucidenic acid, which contribute to natural immune defenses. Also, reishi has traditionally been used to promote a nights rest
.
Why is MicoVital ® Reishi extract so special?
- Only the fruiting bodies of reishi, organically grown on birch bark from the forests of Finland, are used.
- The crop is rod-shaped, which maximizes the surface area of the fruiting body and, therefore, its yield.
- “Ultrasound-Assisted Extraction (UAE)” technology, spring water and alcohol are used as a preservative for the final extract. With this innovative extraction method, we are able to maximize the bioavailability of the compounds of interest found in reishi .
- Miron violet glass bottles are used, a unique type of glass container known as a biophotonic. Miron glass also filters harmful rays while filtering infrared, ultraviolet and violet lights, extending the lifespan and effectiveness of the product. Due to a particular mix of minerals present inside the Miron glass, this bottle also guarantees optimal nutrient preservation .
