Reishi, "the mushroom of immortality", is a type of polypore which grows on trees. It is often used to promote relaxation and improve sleep quality. Known to reduce inflammation, improve gut barrier and enhance respiratory wellbeing.

A recently published study in BMC Microbiology even suggests Reishi supplements have an anti-insomnia effect.

The potent anti-inflammatory effects of this bracket fungus has been gaining great interest in regards to how it can help support women experiencing  menopausal symptoms.

I use a small proportion of Reishi in this truffle blend to work in harmony with the other mushrooms. The flavour is a strong one to balance and has taken me over a year to get the recipe to be pleasurable. I want you to enjoy my chocolates not just for their mushroom benefits but for the taste in themselves!

This striking fungus is one you may have come across and is gaining popularity and recognition with good reason; supporting a healthy inflammatory response and enhancing brain function.
Lions Mane has a longstanding history as a brain-boosting supplement. Chinese Buddhist monks incorporated Lions Mane powder into their tea, asserting its efficacy in enhancing focus during meditation and overall brain power.
Compounds found within Lions Mane have been shown to help boost mood and alleviate symptoms of anxiety and depression whilst promoting the growth of NGF (Nerve growth factor), a key protein in the brain.
