BENEFITS OF HERBS :
Reishi Mushroom : Reishi is used in herbal medicine as an adaptogen. It helps your body adapt to stress. It is non-toxic and safe for long-term use. This grounding mushroom helps you to chill out and adapt to whatever life throws your way. Reishi may also help support your immune system. It has many polysaccharides, antioxidant properties, and beta-glucans that can help with immune function. They have allergy-fighting potential, because some studies have shown that reishi mushrooms may have antihistamine effects and can improve the body’s oxygen supply, which is key to those suffering from chronic and allergic asth*ma.
Reishi mushrooms contain cholesterol-lowering compounds, both triterpenes and beta glucans may reduce total cholesterol and LDL—commonly referred to as "bad cholesterol." Despite the fact that their other nickname is "the mushroom of immortality," reishi mushrooms won't, in fact, make you live forever. But they do have antioxidant properties that can reduce the risk of disease and premature aging—and we can never have too many foods like that in our diets, right? But let's keep it real here....Reishi is not the most delicious mushroom you will ever taste. Because of this, it has very little use as a culinary mushroom. It is incredibly bitter. Yet has endless benefits that outweigh the not-so-tasty cons. Many that are health conscious will know that the most bitter foods are often the ones that are best for us. In fact, properly extracted fruiting bodies of Reishi will be much more bitter than mycelium products, which often taste like rice. The flavor of Reishi will grow on you the more you feel its benefits.
Chaga Mushroom : Chaga has a reputation of being a natural immunity booster, which has been the subject of several different studies. The results of these studies on Chaga suggest that this tree mushroom actually promotes the formation of specialized proteins which stimulate white blood cells. These are essential for fighting harmful bacteria and viruses. Also, just like other edible mushrooms, Chaga contains a wealth of important nutrients. These include, manganese, potassium, calcium, iron, magnesium, zinc, copper, phosphorus. All of these nutrients contribute to your overall health and give your body the fuel it needs to thrive. Chaga mushrooms are high in antioxidants so they naturally reduce inflammation in the body. This is very important as long-term inflammation is linked to various diseases, such as heart disease, and rheumatoid arthritis. So the anti-inflammatory properties of Chaga may help lower your risk of these diseases. Both the increased white blood cell production and anti-inflammatory properties are a clear indication that Chaga can help you fight off infections, from minor colds to even more serious ailments. By ‘cleaning up’ your system of bad and infected cells and assisting in the growth of healthy ones, Chaga promotes greater efficiency to combat disease.
Turkey Tail Mushroom : (Our chosen mushroom for the logo of this label! A personal favourite!) & One of the most researched of all functional mushrooms, turkey tail is in a level of its own. It is known in particular for its potent natural polysaccharides, including polysaccharide K (PSK) and polysaccharide peptide (PSP). These protein-bound polysaccharides help to support a healthy and robust immune response as well as manage the inflammatory response on a cellular level. Turkey tail also features a broad array of naturally occurring compounds that help to improve stamina and support gut health, which, in turn, correlates with a healthy immune system. It is packed with antioxidants, including powerful flavonoids and more than 35 phenols. They promote immune system health by helping to manage inflammation and by stimulating the release of immune-supportive compounds. It’s also replete in prebiotics, which help nourish the beneficial bacteria in the gut and assist in the restoration of a balance of good flora in the gastrointestinal tract, supporting improved digestion and healthy immune response.
Maitake Mushroom : Maitake, is among the world's most beneficial functional mushrooms. Its name which is translated as the "dancing mushroom", it is known as the “hen-of-the-woods” in Europe and North America. This feathered mushroom offers a large range of health benefits, including its ability to help support healthy blood sugar levels and immune health benefits. The mushroom's bioactive polysaccharides support the body in helping to ward off pathogens - particularly useful when there's a cold going around, or you're experiencing stress and have a weakened immune system. As a beneficial adaptogen, Maitake helps to promote natural balance and healthy stress response in the body. In another study, Maitake has also been shown to support healthy blood sugar levels, help reduce insulin and support weight management.
Oyster Mushroom : Oyster mushroom is a rich source of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants like selenium that protect body cells from damage that might lead to chronic dise*ases and help to strengthen the imm*une system.
Cordyceps Mushroom : There are many important cordyceps mushroom benefits. For instance, cordyceps are touted as the ultimate supplement for bringing the immune system back to normal function after life-threatening illnesses or infections. It is an excellent supplement for a pre-workout as it helps in oxygen utilization, as well as blood circulation, and libi*do support. Cordyceps contains an active constituent, some discussion around cordycepin, such as having antimicrobial, antimetastatic, insecticidal and immunomodulatory properties. Also inhibiting cellular proliferation, stimulating cellular apoptosis, slowing down the aggregation of platelets, limiting cellular invasiveness/migration, inhibiting inflammation, limiting the polyadenylation of mRNA, reducing tum*or development and progression. Cordyceps are thought to increase the body's production of the molecule adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is essential for delivering energy to the muscles. This may improve the way your body uses oxygen, especially during exercise.
Artist Conk Mushroom : Medicinal fungi powerhouse such as Artist's conk has good reason for being a prized wild medicine. This is considered to be antiviral, antibacterial, anti-fungals, anti-inflammatories, plus many additional vitamins and minerals. Artist conk has also shown to be useful for cardiovascular health due to its ability to increase nitric oxide synthase. Nitric oxide is a vasodilator which increases blood flow through the arteries, and also plays a role in cardiac function, peristalsis and sexual arousal in men and women. Artist’s conk has laxative and diuretic effects. It is studied and is known to be beneficial for the lungs and respiratory system and has anti-tumor effects.
Due to the potency of our tinctures, sediment may naturally occur. Shake well before using.
