A. There are some publications regarding benefits of Reishi to Lupus patients. Particularly, Reishi or ReishiMax GLp will help to modulate the body’s immune system, enhancing immune protection and reducing abnormal immune responses. There are a number of distributors with Lupus currently using ReishiMax GLp, but Pharmanex recommends that anyone with an existing medical condition consult with their physician before taking any supplements. Reference: Lai NS, et al. Prevention of autoantibody formation and prolonged survival in New Zealand Black/New Zealand White F1 mice with an ancient Chinese herb, Ganoderma tsugae. Lupus 10(7):461-465.
