About This Product
Host Defense Reishi Extract is a mushroom-based supplement, presented as a liquid extract with a serving size of 1mL. This product achieved an N+ Score of 45, resulting in an 'F' grade, indicating a below-average quality rating. The formulation lists a "Proprietary Blend" at 1.000mL, which, despite 100% label transparency, does not disclose the specific concentrations of active compounds within the Reishi extract. This lack of detailed ingredient breakdown makes it challenging to assess ingredient adequacy or whether any components are present at clinically studied doses. Reishi mushroom is commonly used in traditional practices for various health aspects, but the proprietary blend nature limits specific evaluation. This product may appeal to those interested in mushroom extracts, but its low N+ Score highlights concerns regarding the transparency of its active components.
