RYZE FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
How does Reishi support sleep?
Reishi is our go-to for falling asleep (and staying asleep). Research backs the benefits, showing that Reishi works through two key pathways—GABA and serotonin.1
GABA (Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid) is like an off switch for your brain, slowing things down to help you unwind. Research suggests Reishi supports this process, making it easier to relax and fall asleep. The serotonin pathway helps regulate mood and melatonin production, which controls your sleep cycle. Some studies suggest that Reishi may support serotonin levels, which could be another reason it helps support restorative rest without the groginess.
Does Reishi really relieve stress?
Absolutely. Reishi is an adaptogen, meaning it helps you adapt to stress. Whether it’s a packed schedule, endless to-do lists, or just the ups and downs of daily life, Reishi mushroom can help bring your body back into balance.
One way it does this is through the HPA axis (hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis), the system responsible for regulating your body’s stress response. Chronic stress can throw this system out of whack, leading to cortisol spikes and stress-related fatigue. Studies suggest that Reishi may help regulate this system, keeping cortisol and stress levels in check.
Reishi’s stress-relieving benefits also extend to inflammation and gut health, and in turn, mood and resilience. Research shows that Reishi may lower stress-related compounds that contribute to feelings of burnout. Another study found that Reishi positively influences gut bacteria, which play a surprising role in regulating mood and emotional wellbeing.
What about immune support? How does that work?
A balanced immune system is a thriving immune system. And that’s where Reishi comes in. This stress-soother is packed with naturally occurring compounds that keep your immune system strong and regulated.,5 Three of the most notable groups of compounds are polysaccharides, triterpenes, and antioxidants. Here’s how they work:
Polysaccharides, specifically beta-glucans, help activate your immune cells. These are your body’s first line of defense, working to fight off invaders and keep your system flowing.5 Polysaccharides also have anti-inflammatory and prebiotics properties, nourishing your gut and supporting smoother digestion.
Triterpenes are immune regulators. These compounds have antiviral and antimicrobial properties, making it easier for your immune system to fight invaders.5 They’ve also been shown to help calm inflammation,4 bringing relief for allergies and autoimmune flare-ups.
Finally, Reishi is rich in antioxidants, which support cellular health and protect against oxidative stress. These compounds help reduce signs of aging, support brain health, and help keep the immune system strong.
