Our assessment
The evidence shows that this product, Herb Pharm Professional Reishi, is a dietary supplement containing a medicinal mushroom. However, the data provided does not include any specific clinical studies or health claims for reishi mushroom itself. Our assessment is based on the only ingredient data available: calcium. For general health, calcium is essential for bone mineralization and neuromuscular relaxation [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural building block for your bones and a signal regulator for your nerves and muscles. It supports bone density by aiding mineral deposition and helps your muscles relax and nerves signal properly [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
Data not available for the specific side effects of this product. The FDA has received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplements, but report counts specific to this product are not provided. Regarding calcium, which is listed as an ingredient, high intakes can cause constipation, nausea, and abnormal heart rhythms [NIH ODS] [FDA data].
Our recommendation
Because no specific clinical studies or safety data for this reishi product are provided in the available data, we cannot make a confident recommendation for its use. If you are considering this supplement, consult your healthcare provider, especially if you take medications like bisphosphonates or thyroid hormones, as calcium can reduce their absorption [NIH ODS].
