DXN Lingzhi Black Coffee is made from high-quality Brazilian Arabica coffee beans combined with Reishi medicinal mushroom (Ganoderma) extract.

Benefits of DXN Lingzhi Black Coffee

1. Protects against cardiovascular diseases

Ganoderma is rich in antioxidants which neutralise harmful free radicals in the body, and has anti-inflammatory effects to combat inflammation which is the root cause of many heart diseases.

Ganoderma also acts as a vasodilator which widens blood vessels to improve blood circulation. This improved circulation enhances oxygen and nutrient delivery throughout the body and helps remove waste products more efficiently, reducing workload on the heart.

Ganoderma also reduces LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol), which could accumulate to block vessels. Together, all these effects reduce the chances of high blood pressure and other cardiovascular heart diseases.

2. Optimises immune system

The components of Ganoderma has been shown to activate receptors on white blood cells, boosting immune function. This triggers interferon production which alerts other cells to viral attacks and strengthens immune defense. It also activates other immune cells such as macrophages and T-killer cells which ingest pathogens, and increases Immunoglobulin G (IgG) production, a key antibody for fighting pathogens.

3. Supports liver health and reduce blood cholesterol

The liver is responsible for detoxification and blood cholesterol regulation. Ganoderma’s anti-inflammatory and anti-hepatotoxic action protects liver cells from damage induced by toxins and inflammation. This enhances its function of eliminating toxins and waste products while improving metabolism to reduce LDL cholesterol production. These effects help to prevent against liver diseases and maintain its health

4. Enhances digestive process

Coffee stimulates the secretion of gastric acid, pancreatic juices which includes digestive enzymes and bile which emulsifies fat to aid its digestion. These secretions enhances the overall digestive process.

In addition, coffee stimulates motility in the colon, which promotes regular bowel movements and help prevent constipation. This enhances the body's ability to eliminate toxins effectively.

5. Promotes relaxation

While most conventional coffee products are known to cause side effects such as jitters, restlessness, and increased anxiety due to their high caffeine content, DXN Lingzhi Black Coffee contains less caffeine. Moreover, Ganoderma helps the body adapt to stress by reducing anxiety, stabilise mood, and promoting calmness. This makes Lingzhi Black Coffee a gentler alternative for those who are sensitive to stimulants, supporting better quality sleep.
