Reishi mushrooms contain triterpenes that may reduce inflammation by modulating inflammatory pathways. This could benefit conditions associated with chronic inflammation.
Triterpenes, a class of compounds found in reishi mushrooms, are believed to exert anti-inflammatory effects by modulating the inflammatory response pathways within the body. This modulation can potentially reduce the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and other inflammatory mediators, thereby alleviating inflammation throughout the body. This reduction in inflammation may offer benefits for individuals experiencing conditions characterized by chronic inflammation.
