The use of Coriolus has been referenced in Traditional Chinese Herbology as early as the 15th century. The Chinese Compendium of Materia Medica from the Ming Dynasty records that Coriolus “...benefits one’s spirit and vital energy and strengthens one’s tendon and bone. If Coriolus (Yun zhi) is taken for a long time, it will make one vigorous and live long.” Today, Coriolus is the most widely-used product in China and Japan. It is known as a general tonic for the immune system, supporting healthy Liver function.

Coriolus clears Damp, reduces Phlegm, benefits the Lungs, stops cough, strengthens the constitution and energy.
