Reishi Babies

About 15 -20 years or so ago I got super into Chinese herbs and walked into Master Herbalist, Ron Teeguarden’s store and he told me all about the “REISHI babies”. He shared with me articles, research and told me that pregnant women in Asia seek Reishi mushrooms as an immune builder for themselves and their growing babies and these Reishi babies are born like little Buddhas; super peaceful, zen and alert. He also saw some of these children, older and newborn, and they appeared uniformly calm and focused.

The infants had little or no inflammations on their face or hands, cried little, and appeared to take in their surroundings with incredible acuity." I told a few clients about this and they all took Reishi throughout their pregnancies and I’m not gonna lie, I watched these kids be born and they definitely were super chill and alert and have continued to be so.

I am a huge fan of Reishi mushrooms and take them daily myself as it boosts immunity, reduces stress and anxiety, helps with sleep, supports the nervous system and regulates cortisol response. I love this brand Host Defense or you can add a powdered version to your Seedlyfe Pregnancy Smoothie Blend daily!
