I keep telling them i haven't looked into it enough, because i wasn't sure how it interacted with reishi, and if it perhaps interfered with reishi instead of energized, or maybe it would cause health problems taken together- point is, idk, would taking saw palmetto be good addition, assuming my only current AA is my estrogen monotherapy and my reishi?
Hi Aria, so you just started taking reishi right? I wouldn't mix saw palmetto, let reishi do its thing. Are you taking RR in capsules or as tea?

I sound like a caveman, don't I?
i ordered reishi liquid extract from hawaiinphrams on amazon. not sure how much more or less powerful it is vs the powder. i would imagine the extract would be a bit more powerful, since its concentrated? i am going to try it sublingual. would it be better to let the liver handle it?
