freeztar Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 Thanks for the information, can you by this in local stores or just on line? You can find it growing in your back yard. I have some growing at the edge of my driveway right now. :) Of course, you can always find the tea or extract at your local health food store, or perhaps a chinese market if you have one nearby. When I worked at a health food store some 10 years ago, we had a bottle of pills that was a mixture of shitake, maitake, and reishi, very healthy stuff. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougF Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 I haven't seen anything like that groing around here but I do have a small local health food store, no chinese market, perhaps I'll get lucky. :shrug: Thank's freeztar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ganogirl Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 If you visit this website *spam link removed*you will find various products containing ganoderma. the testimonials of the benefits it has had have been pretty amazing. it is sold as capsules and for those who aren't into popping vitamins... coffee, mocha, tea... (it is tasteless in these products, and yes the coffee tastes like coffee (take it from a starbucks fan.) the prices and opportunities are more than reasonable and all the products are from a farm in china... check it out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
