The reishi or lingzhi mushroom is often considered the gold standard when it comes to medicinal mushrooms.

It’s a polypore, which means it’s a tough cork-like mushroom that grows on the side of trees and is to tough to eat. It’s quite rare in the wild, but luckily it is now cultivated on hardwood logs or sawdust on a commercial scale.
