Laboratory analysis has revealed three powerful compounds in Reishi mushroom extract: adenine, adenosine, and hypoxanthine. These natural molecules explain why Reishi has become one of the most trusted natural sleep aids available.
The Science Behind Better Sleep
Unlike synthetic sleep supplements, Reishi mushroom contains naturally occurring molecules that work together to support your body's natural sleep processes.
Adenine: Cellular Energy
Essential for DNA and energy production. Supports gut health, which research connects to deeper, uninterrupted sleep.
- Enhanced cellular energy
- Better gut health
- Stronger immune function
Adenosine: Natural Sleep
The key player in how your body naturally falls into deep sleep. Promotes nervous system relaxation.
- Natural drowsiness
- Enhanced sleep depth
- Reduced sleep anxiety
Hypoxanthine: Recovery
Supports DNA repair and cellular renewal. Benefits exercise recovery and brain function.
- DNA repair
- Improved cognitive function
- Better recovery
Why Our Extraction Method Matters
Traditional alcohol-based extracts often destroy these delicate compounds during harsh processing. Our alcohol-free extraction preserves these sensitive molecules, ensuring you receive the full spectrum of sleep benefits.
How to Use Reishi for Best Results
- Take 30-60 minutes before bed
- Use consistently for best results
- Combine with good sleep hygiene
- Most people notice improvements within 1-2 weeks
