Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

LucidiSPORE is a single-ingredient softgel: reishi spore oil made using supercritical CO2 extraction, a method that concentrates the active compounds from reishi mushroom spores. The capsule itself is made from gelatin.

Does it work?

Not established
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Not established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use — see Reishi Mushroom's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: immune function, stress and sleep support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Stress, Insomnia, Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), Psychological well-being, fatigue, restlessness — and 1 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Reishi Mushroom is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Reishi Mushroom is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Cancer-related fatigue, Insomnia, Stress, Psychological well-being.

The data we hold shows reishi mushroom is possibly ineffective for high cholesterol (hyperlipidemia). For altitude sickness, Alzheimer disease, and athletic performance, there isn't enough reliable evidence to rate whether it works.

If you're considering LucidiSPORE for one of these uses, the evidence doesn't yet support it.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Reishi Mushroom

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Reishi mushroom is generally well tolerated in the short term, but long-term safety hasn't been well studied. Common side effects include dizziness, dry mouth, itching, nausea, rash, and stomach upset.

Some people have reported respiratory allergy to reishi spores, as well as sore throat and runny nose. Rarely, dizziness, insomnia, and headache have been noted.

There isn't enough safety data to recommend LucidiSPORE during pregnancy or breastfeeding. If you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using this product.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Reishi Mushroom

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Reishi Mushroom.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 375 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Before taking LucidiSPORE, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take blood thinners (anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs) — reishi may increase bleeding risk at higher doses. Also double-check if you're on blood pressure medications, since reishi can lower blood pressure and might cause yours to drop too much.

If you take diabetes medications, confirm it's safe, because reishi may add to their blood-sugar-lowering effects.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

LucidiSPORE may be worth considering if you're interested in reishi for general wellness, though evidence for most uses is limited or absent. If you take blood thinners, blood pressure medications, or diabetes drugs, you'll need to check with your doctor or pharmacist first — the interactions are documented and could affect how your medications work.

Start by confirming it's safe for you and your prescriptions with your own healthcare provider.

Reishi Spore Oil Supercritical CO2 extract3 drug types · 375 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, high doses of reishi mushroom might increase the risk of bleeding.
A dose of 1.5 grams daily of reishi mushroom does not seem to decrease platelet aggregation, but a higher dose of 3 grams daily does.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, reishi mushroom might have additive effects with antidiabetes drugs.
Animal research suggests that reishi mushroom decreases blood sugar. However, in patients with type 2 diabetes, taking reishi mushroom does not reduce fasting glucose levels, and its effects on glycated hemoglobin are inconsistent.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, concurrent use of reishi mushroom with antihypertensive drugs might increase the risk of hypotension.
Reishi mushroom has shown hypotensive activity in animal research. Clinical evidence suggests that reishi mushroom reduces blood pressure in some, but not all, patients with hypertension.

Why does reishi have so many drug interactions?
