Reishi, known as the all-powerful king of traditional Chinese medicine, boasts multiple benefits, including boosting immunity, improving sleep, protecting the liver, and regulating "three highs" (hypertension, hyperglycemia, and hyperlipidemia). It inherently possesses a high-profile status due to its multifaceted effects.

However, many people hope that consuming Reishi will immediately invigorate their bodies. If desired results are not seen within a few days, they may become skeptical or even abandon Reishi altogether, which compromises its efficacy.

It would be unusual for Reishi to have an immediate effect.

Professor Ruey-Shyang Hseu from National Taiwan University, who specializes in Reishi research, has stated that Reishi is a health supplement and a biological modulator that adjusts the body's constitution and functions. Noticeable effects usually take more than a month to manifest after consumption.

If noticeable effects are felt soon after consumption, it might indicate that the body is in a very poor condition, which is why the Reishi appears to work immediately. Since Reishi is a health supplement, it should not be treated as a medicine with expectations of instant results. Instead, it should be taken with the mindset of disease prevention, aiming to regulate the body to a healthy and positive state. This approach indirectly inhibits the progression of diseases, leaving no opportunity for viruses and cancer cells to take hold.

Unlike the rapid effects of Western medicine, the value of Reishi lies in its comprehensive regulation of both body and mind.

The primary function of Reishi in the body is to strengthen the body's resistance, which essentially involves enhancing energy metabolism and promoting the body's repair capacity. This is a process that requires time.

Therefore, Reishi is effective in treating many conditions such as neurasthenia, insomnia, hyperlipidemia, and chronic bronchitis. However, noticeable results typically require a period of medication before becoming evident.

In the program "Reishi Vitality Theory", renowned traditional Chinese medicine practitioner Du Jian discusses the nourishing effects of Reishi on the five internal organs from a TCM perspective. Reishi enters the heart, liver, lungs, and kidneys meridians, and its sweet taste nourishes the spleen. Hence, it can nourish the five internal organs, assist in balancing the body's vitality while dispelling pathogenic factors, and ultimately improve one's constitution, mental state, and sleep quality. Achieving these effects requires long-term consumption of Reishi.

Choosing the right Reishi is also very important.

Since long-term consumption is necessary, careful selection is indeed imperative.

Not all products labeled with the word "Reishi" can deliver its effects. It is essential to choose Reishi products with the "blue hat sign" certification or pharmaceutical batch numbers. Additionally, attention should be given to the product's testing reports for compliance, whether the company owns Reishi plantations and factories, as these factors ensure Reishi quality.

Ancient people consumed Reishi less meticulously, consuming whatever they harvested and still experiencing its benefits. This was because their diet, environment, and lifestyle were less complex and contaminated than modern times.

However, modern individuals face a more complex environment. Therefore, only high-quality Reishi with consistent provenance, clear composition, and stable content, consumed regularly over a long period, can achieve the desired long-term health benefits.

Ultimately, if you are willing to believe in Reishi, manage to procure the qualified type, and commit to long-term consumption, Reishi will undoubtedly not disappoint you.
