Fine-Mesh Drinks
Fine-mesh drinks keep 1250-mesh reishi powder suspended. The taste is still reishi, because this is the milled conk, not an extract.

Product Description
1250 mesh is the specification. This Ganoderma lucidum powder is the mushroom, milled fine enough to stay in a drink. It is not an extract, and shell-broken spore powder is a different product.
Polysaccharides, beta-glucan and triterpenes may sit at whatever level the conk had. They are not concentrated, so an extract percent does not belong on the label. Buy the mesh, taste it as reishi, and still ask for heavy metals.

Applications
Tablets
Tablets are pressed from the whole powder, so the serving is larger than an extract tablet for the same marker intake.
Whole-Powder Capsules
Capsules are filled with reishi powder. An extract claim would need an extract, which this grind is not.
Mesh Check
Mouthfeel in the drink depends on the 1250 mesh. Coarser reishi powder settles and feels gritty.
FAQ
Is 1250-mesh reishi powder an extract?
No. It is the mushroom ground fine. An extract is concentrated and carries an assay.
Does the mesh size raise the triterpene percent?
No. Mesh changes particle size, not the amount of triterpenes in the mushroom.
How is this different from shell-broken spore powder?
Spore powder is the cracked spore. This is milled mushroom powder.
What should the COA show?
Identity, mesh, microbiology and heavy metals. Add a marker only if you claim one.
