Insomnia is a common problem that affects many people around the world.
If you are looking for a natural solution to improve the quality of your sleep, Reishi could be the answer to your need.
French Mush reveals the beneficial properties of Reishiand how it can help you overcome the insomnia and thus regain optimal sleep.
What is Reishi?
Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) is a medicinal mushroom used for millennia in traditional Chinese medicine for its positive effects on health.
It is also called "mushroom of immortality" or "spiritual mushroom" because of its recognized therapeutic virtues.
Initial research revealed several bioactive components present in Reishi, including triterpenes, polysaccharides and peptides, which are responsible for its many benefits.
Among these, we find in particular:
- improving immune function
- reducing inflammation
- protection against oxidative damage
- stress regulation
- supporting sleep quality
- support for falling asleep
How does Reishi work on insomnia?
Effects on the nervous system and stress
Stress is one of the main factors causing or aggravatingsleep disorders.
Indeed,lack of sleep linked to stress has negative repercussions on vitality and general well-being and thus forms a real vicious circle.
Reishi has adaptogenic properties, which means that it helps the body resist stress and restore the balance of its vital functions.
These effects are partly due to the triterpenes present in the mushroom, which act directly on stress-related receptors in the brain.
Additionally, studies have shown that Reishi can increase the production of certain molecules such as GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), an inhibitory neurotransmitter that promotes relaxation and sleep by slowing neuronal activity.
This suggests that Reishi may have a calming effect on the nervous system, helping to combat insomnia and achieve restful sleep.
Anti-inflammatory action and benefits for sleep
Chronic inflammation is another potential cause of insomnia because it disrupts the body's hormonal balance and normal functioning.
Reishi polysaccharides have demonstrated anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties, helping to reduce inflammation and support the immune response.
The polysaccharides of Reishi have also been found to influence the production of cytokines, proteins involved in the regulation of sleep.
By rebalancing the level of cytokines, Reishi can help improve sleep quality and relieve insomnia.
