Red reishi 8:1(immune modulator) for autoimmune

Original post in this thread

Akashii7 · 12 points

nootropic depot is clearly one of the best brands out there so I'd like to know some things about red reishi product as I'm trying that for a autoimmune disease that I have.
Nootropic depot says that 8:1 extract has high amount triterpenoids which consists of main components of immune modulator and cognition benefits ( which also i was looking for ) but on some research I saw the beta glucan has immune modulators so whats going on here can someone explain?
I know 8:1 extract also has good amount of beta glucan but I just want to know can nootropic depot red reishi also be used for its benefits of immune modulator?
I didn't take 1:1 extract because I'm not looking for immune boosting and inflammation that much as I have green tea and other good things.
Last thing does lions mane 8:1 only has cognitive benefits? Because lions mane also has some immune modulator in them is that at all there in nootropic depot 8:1 extract ?
If someone could help me out here thanks alot either way I know red reishi and lions mane will be beneficial for me alot
Also please tag misteryouaresodumb if someone can I don't really know how to tag lol
Peace
Also im not looking for immune boosting and infl…

It's hard to generalize things as complex as autoimmune diseases. That being said, the 8:1 reishi absolutely does modulate the immune system. The triterpenes are immune modulators along with the beta-glucans.

Is ND done launching new products?

Replying to midwestworld13 · I emailed them about restocking red reishi products and was met with a very unsatisfying reply... I'm low on other sups but kinda trying to find somewhere else if I'm being honest.

Reishi products are all being restocked. We were just doing some optimization on them. Because we developed methods to test for ganoderic acids, our first step was releasing our Ultra Concentrated 9% extract. However, st
