What Makes ReishiMax GLP Different
Two things set the Pharmanex extract apart, in Nu Skin's own description: cracked spore technology and a meticulous multi-step extraction process. Together, Nu Skin says, these mean ReishiMax GLp “boasts some of the highest levels of active ingredients found in any Reishi product worldwide” and “unlocks the full benefits and bioavailability of Reishi Mushrooms.”*
Each capsule is standardized to 13.5% polysaccharides and 6% triterpenes — the two active compound classes in reishi. Many generic reishi supplements are not standardized to a stated level of either, so potency can vary between batches and brands.
What Does ReishiMax GLP Do?
Nu Skin lists three benefits for ReishiMax GLp:*
- “Supports healthy immune system function.”
- “Promotes the proliferation and activity of your body's own defensive immune cells.”
- “Boosts your body's natural defensive immune cells.”
Nu Skin adds that ReishiMax GLp is “proven to fortify a healthy immune system* by boosting the activity of antibodies and Natural Killer Cells, essential in the fight against foreign organisms.”
Reishi also has, in Nu Skin's words, “a long history of traditional use.”*
How ReishiMax GLP Compares to Generic Reishi Supplements
The practical difference is standardization and source. ReishiMax GLp states its actives on the label — 13.5% polysaccharides and 6% triterpenes — and is made from red reishi using cracked spore technology. Generic reishi extracts are frequently sold without any stated standardization, and are often grown on grain substrate rather than made from the mushroom itself, so what is in the capsule can vary considerably from one product to the next.
Recommended Use
Nu Skin's directions: “As a dietary supplement, take two capsules daily with food and drink. Store in a cool, dry place.”
- Timing: Take with meals
- Consistency: Taken daily rather than occasionally
Safety, Side Effects, and Contraindications
ReishiMax GLP is manufactured under Pharmanex's 6S Quality Process. Reishi has a long history of traditional use. Important considerations:
- Generally well-tolerated: Most users tolerate ReishiMax GLP without side effects. Mild digestive sensitivity is occasionally reported — taking with food minimizes this
- Immunosuppressant medications: Consult your physician before use if you take immunosuppressants
- Blood thinners: Consult your physician before use if you take blood thinners (warfarin, aspirin therapy)
