Lo que deberías hacer

Por lo general, está bien tomarlos juntos. Sin embargo, si tienes programada una cirugía, deja de tomarlos al menos dos semanas antes.

Si tienes diabetes o tomas medicamentos anticoagulantes (como warfarina o aspirina), controle su nivel de azúcar en la sangre y esté atento a moretones o sangrados inusuales.

Consulte a su médico de cabecera antes de comenzar esta combinación si tiene una condición médica preexistente.

Si tienes alguno de los síntomas mencionados, deberías:

• Stop taking the supplements and see if your symptoms improve.

• Speak to your GP or pharmacist for personalised advice.

• Seek urgent medical help if you develop severe allergic reactions, such as swelling of the face or difficulty breathing.

• Informe a su profesional de la salud sobre todos los medicamentos y suplementos que está tomando.

• Avoid restarting the supplements until a healthcare professional confirms it is safe.

Precauciones importantes

Trastornos de la coagulación o próxima cirugía

Both supplements may slow blood clotting and increase the risk of bruising and bleeding. You must stop taking them at least 2 weeks before any scheduled surgery.

Presión arterial baja (hipotensión)

Reishi can lower blood pressure significantly. If you already have low blood pressure or take medication to control it, this supplement could cause your blood pressure to drop to dangerous levels.

Advertencias sobre alimentos y bebidas

Alcohol

It is best to avoid or strictly limit alcohol when taking these supplements. Both Lion's Mane and Reishi can have calming or sedative effects on the central nervous system; combining them with alcohol may increase drowsiness, dizziness, and impaired coordination. Additionally, Reishi may affect liver function in some individuals, and alcohol can further strain the liver.

Cafeína

Reishi is often used for its potential to lower blood pressure and promote relaxation. Caffeine is a stimulant that increases heart rate and blood pressure. Consuming high amounts of caffeine may counteract the calming effects of Reishi.

Foods with anticoagulant properties (e.g., Garlic, Ginger, Turmeric)

Reishi may slow blood clotting. Consuming very large medicinal amounts of other foods that also thin the blood might increase the risk of bruising or bleeding.
