ProFuel REISHI medicinal mushroom 180 capsules

To reach the recommended daily dose of 2000 mg Reishi extract in the ProFuel REISHI Vital Mushroom Treatment, 3 capsules should be taken daily. Each capsule contains 667 mg Reishi extract. One container of 180 capsules is therefore sufficient for 60 days.

When taking Reishi medicinal mushroom capsules, interactions with certain medications may occur and should be considered. Reishi can potentially affect the efficacy of blood pressure-lowering medications by further lowering blood pressure, which can lead to dangerously low blood pressure. Reishi can also slow blood clotting. Taking it concurrently with blood-thinning medications such as warfarin, aspirin, or clopidogrel may increase the risk of bleeding and bruising. It is recommended to consult a doctor before taking Reishi capsules in combination with such medications, as an adjustment of the medication dosage may be necessary. Furthermore, Reishi can also interact with medications used to treat diabetes by lowering blood sugar levels, which can lead to hypoglycemia. When taking blood pressure-lowering or anticoagulant medications, it is advisable to closely monitor blood pressure and blood clotting and seek medical advice.

Yes, the Reishi extract contained in ProFuel REISHI Vital Mushroom Capsules is standardized to a specific polysaccharide content of 30%, thus ensuring a consistent concentration of active ingredients and high quality in every capsule. While the manufacturer does not explicitly state on the packaging that the product contains beta-glucans, these constitute a significant component of the polysaccharides.

Since the effects of medicinal mushrooms develop over time, REISHI capsules should be taken continuously for an extended period. To achieve noticeable support, it is recommended to observe the effects for at least 4 to 8 weeks, with a course of use lasting 3 to 6 months being ideal. A course of treatment with breaks is not recommended; for optimal results, consistent intake is recommended.
