Reishi Mushroom Coffee Promises a Healthy and Tasty Alternative to Caffeine
By Mike Vincent

While coffee is apparently the most popular drink worldwide with 1.4 billion cups consumed every day, there is a growing concern among coffee drinkers to find a healthy form of coffee.

And recent research for such a coffee has lead to a newfound popularity for a style of coffee featuring an ancient mushroom known as reishi.

Reishi has been used for thousands of years to treat medical ailments in Chinese medicine. It was so rare that it was reserved only for the royal family. But in the past 25 years, scientists have learned how to grow the reishi mushroom in a greenhouse environment. It is 100% organically grown, using no chemicals or pesticides.

M ore precisely, this new breed of coffee features a Reishi mushroom extract that is commonly know in the United States as ganoderma.

Why use this instead of normal coffee? While normal coffee tastes great and is a great pick-me-up, we also know that caffeine increases your heart rate, elevates your blood pressure, and can contribute to the development of heart disease.

Anxiety and irritability are also associated with too much caffeine int ak e.

The high acid content of most coffees can lead to gastrointestinal problems because coffee increases the secretion of hydrochloric acid leading to an increased risk for ulcers. Coffee, including decaf, works on the stomach in such a way that the highly acidic contents of the stomach passes up to the esophagus leading to heartburn and gastro-oesophageal reflux disease. With America ’s high consumption of coffee, it’s no wonder the best selling over-the-counter drugs are the so-called antacids.

So, since we’re not likely to give up our taste for coffee, it might be a good idea to move to a healthy version.

The ganoderma version of coffee actually helps to remove toxins from your body, and with every cup you drink, you can feel better and realize increasing health benefits.

And this particular coffee tastes good!

Besides taste, this new healthy coffee has been known to increase oxygen to your brain, help balance your weight, and boost your overall health. As I said earlier, it has been known since ancient times in China for its health benefits, where its name means, “goodness of health, life and eternal youth.”

But that’s not all. Its essential ingredient, reishi mushrooms, has been used as an immune stimulant for both HIV and cancer patients and has even been found to improve immune response in advance-stage cancer victims. These mushrooms have also been used to help the healing of lungs for people with asthma and lung disorders. It is also know to help relieve hypertension, liver disorders and arthritis.

And an added bonus is that as it’s low in caffeine, it won’t have negative affects on sleep patterns.

It is of course easy to say this without proof, but a considerable number of studies in Japan, China, USA and the UK over the past 30 years have shown that the consumption of red reishi has been linked to the treatment of a vast range of diseases, common ailments, and conditions.

However, most of the scientific research that has been conducted appears to strongly support red reishi's role as a normalizing substance -- a nutritional supplement that can yield medical benefits through its normalization and regulation of the body's organs and functions.

Last but not least, let’s consider the pesticide and chemical factors that I mentioned earlier. Unlike your average coffee bean, which is one of the most heavily pesticide sprayed crops, reishi coffee beans are grown and processed organically without the use of any chemicals or pesticides. This healthy coffee will help remove toxins from your body and boost your immune system. With every cup that you drink you can feel revived, rejuvenated and experience increased health benefits.

So, just imagine a coffee that can boost your immune system, increase your circulation and just m ak e you feel better. I’ve found that since switching to Ganoderma healthy coffee, I can have as much or more enjoyment of my daily cups of coffee, and have no more worries about negative physical or psychological effects.

So, what a bonus: you can improve your health and enjoy your daily coffee. Now that’s something to drink to!
