Product Information
Use
Coriolus versicolor has been used for centuries in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Known as Yun zhi in China and Kawaratake in Japan this mushroom was referenced in the Chinese Compendium of Materia Medica as far back as the 15th century.

The Ming dynasty edition of the Materia Medica states that " The black and green Yun zhi are beneficial to one's spirit and vital energy, and strengthen one's tendon and bone. If Yun zhi is taken for a long time, it will make one vigorous and live long."

Modern clinical research has focused on using the water extracts of this mushroom to stimulate and strengthen the immune health of people facing serious immune challenges.

In Traditional East Asian Medicine the texts call for 6-12 gram of dried mushrooms per day, prepared in a tea. The daily amount, taken as tea, should be split between morning and evening.

The dried mushroom can easily be ground to a powder in a coffee grinder, or can be purchased already ground (please specify in order).

Bring the tea just to a boil then immediately turn down to a simmer. Do not boil the tea past the initial boil, it will degrade the medicinal compounds. For maximum benefit you can simmer the tea from 2-4 hours, although a fairly strong tea can be made in 20-30 minutes. The grounds can be re-heated with benefit, discard the grounds when they no longer produce color in the tea.

Filter the tea through a coffee filter before drinking. As mentioned the grounds can be re-used as long as they produce color in the tea. Any un-used portion of the tea can be refrigerated and used up to two days later. Shake the stored tea before using it.
