Why do some people age slower than others, even though they are the same age? Because they consume Champignon Reishi.
Depuis l'Antiquité, Reishi has been regarded as a substance that promotes a “good complexion” and is believed to have the effect of beautifying and rejuvenating skin and delaying aging.
Le Shen Nong Ben Cao Jing (Le classique de la matière médicale du Divin Fermier) records that Reishi“replenishes essence and energy, strengthens muscles and bones, and improves complexion.” There is an ancient saying that consuming Reishi for thirty days makes the skin “as white as jade,” illustrating how precious Reishi is for women!
Recent pharmacological studies demonstrate that Reishi provides specific benefits for women’s physical and mental health. For women aiming to support healthy aging and overall wellness, increasing Reishi consumption may offer a scientifically supported option.
1. Enhances Antioxidant Capacity and Reduces Free Radical Damage
Reishi Delays Skin Aging
Skin aging due to oxidation is an inevitable process. In recent years, considerable research has been conducted on Reishi’s ability to delay aging, avec Reishi spore powder, spore oije, et extraits all demonstrating impressive results.
Reishi spore powder extract can reduce the content of the peroxide MDA (malondialdéhyde), increase the activity of the cellular antioxidant enzyme SOD (superoxyde dismutase), stabilize the mitochondrial membrane potential of cells, effectively mitigate oxidative damage, and delay skin aging [1].
Reishi spore oil, rich in unsaturated fatty acids and four fat-soluble vitamins, possesses the ability to scavenge free radicals and superoxide anion radicals, showing a clear dose-dependent relationship [2]. This means that the higher the dose of spore oil, the stronger its ability to eliminate free radicals.
Reishi water extract and L-cysteine both exhibit antioxidant and free radical-scavenging effects. The latter can also inhibit the reactions of dopa and tyrosinase, reducing the activity of melanocyte enzymes, thereby achieving spot-removing and whitening effects. When used together, they demonstrate effective spot removal, dermatitis inhibition, and anti-aging effects [3].
The advantages of Reishi in spot removal, skin whitening, anti-âge, skin repair, and enhancing skin radiance are far superior to those of conventional skincare products[4]. Each of these benefits helps us age more beautifully and healthily.
2. Alleviates Depression, Irritability, Hormonal Imbalances…
Reishi Improves Menopausal Symptoms
While skin aging is a surface issue, internal aging is even more critical, such as the bothersome “menopausal symptoms.”
“Menopause” is an unavoidable topic for women. Due to the decline in female hormones, various physiological and psychological issues arise, including endocrine disorders, menstrual irregularities, insomnie, aging, irritability, depression, and mood swings.
According to clinical research from the Affiliated Hospital of Wuhan University of Science and Technology, women with menopausal syndrome who took 60 ml of Reishi syrup daily experienced significant relief or complete disappearance of symptoms such as irritability, nervosité, instabilité émotionnelle, insomnie, bouffées de chaleur, transpiration, and night sweats after 15 days of treatment. The effectiveness surpassed that of some commonly used traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions.
Reishi likely achieves this by regulating the immune and nervous systems, indirectly stabilizing the endocrine system [5].
3. Reishi Significantly Improves Sleep
Good sleep naturally leads to better skin condition and complexion. Cependant, “poor sleep quality” has become one of the biggest concerns for many older women.
Heureusement, Reishi plays a very clear and positive role in aiding sleep. Studies confirm that consuming Reishi products typically shows noticeable effects within 1 à 2 semaines, with overall improvements in sleep, appetite, prise de poids, reduction or disappearance of palpitations, maux de tête, et des vertiges, as well as improved spirits, mémoire, and physical strength [6].
En tant que “calming herb,” regular consumption of Reishi Slice significantly improves sleep.
Compared to skincare products, medical aesthetic treatments, and ordinary supplements, what the revered Reishi can achieve is fundamental nourishment of both body and spirit, comprehensive support for the entire body, and the cultivation of true, healthy beauty that radiates from within.
