So if i want to get R R it would have to have R R in the name correct? How is the taste and what mg need? Any other info i need?
I would always opt "pure" stuff, not mixes. Btw. I am using Reishi in powder format. It's slightly bitter, but when mixed with yogurt quite palatable. There are also capsules available, and then there is no worries regarding taste, but the price is higher, and extraction methods may lead to actually different amounts of the active stuff: How a less than one gram capsule can have 6000 mg Reishi, if nothing is removed? Also, is the "missing" 80-90% only inactive parts of the dried mushroom? Therefore I prefer powder made only by grinding from dried Reishi mushrooms.

Lotus had suggested this brand at one time, so it's the one I use.
