Caffeine

Caffeine, an energy-boosting central nervous system stimulant found naturally in over 60 plants including coffee beans, tea leaves and cocoa pods, as well as synthetically produced and added as dietary supplement to some drinks, foods and medicines to increase energy levels.

Blocking the adenosine receptor in brain cells by preventing it from binding and slowing cellular activity allows nerve cells to speed up and stimulates release of the hormone epinephrine which increases heart rate and blood flow to muscles; as well as causes liver release of glucose and kidney excrete water.

Caffeine enhances performance on psychomotor tasks such as concentration and decision-making thanks to its central and peripheral effects. Caffeine can improve mood, increase alertness and lower depression risk; regular coffee consumption reduces this risk as well. Furthermore, regular consumption decreases Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s risk.

Although caffeine is technically considered a drug, taking small doses (up to 400mg per day) does not cause harm. The stimulating agent can be found naturally in several plants and used as food additive for its stimulating effects. Furthermore, caffeine may also be found in over-the-counter medicines like antacids and pain relievers.

Caffeine is widely acknowledged for both its energy-boosting and antioxidant activities. Furthermore, caffeine acts as a diuretic that allows your body to rid itself of excess fluid through urine output – this is especially helpful for people living with chronic illnesses like diabetes or high blood pressure. Furthermore, caffeine has been known to help prevent kidney stones forming among women as well as decrease gout risk by dispelling excess uric acid from your blood vessels.

Reishi

Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum in Chinese medicine) is widely revered as a spiritual “spirit plant”, used by monks for spiritual journeying and development, meditation, transcendence and enlightenment. Additionally, Reishi can act as a potent hepatoprotective, meaning it protects liver tissue against damage while encouraging normal cell growth and repair. Reishi contains several active compounds believed to reduce high blood pressure, lower LDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels as well as discourage platelet aggregation; furthermore Reishi has also been shown to aid healing cirrhosis and hepatitis while simultaneously decreasing inflammation as well as encouraging normal cell growth and proliferation.

Reishi mushroom, commonly referred to as the “mushroom of immortality,” can also act as an effective immune-booster and modulate certain genes responsible for our immune responses. Tests on human tumor cells demonstrate this; extracts of Reishi have shown potential in inhibiting tumor cell growth while stimulating natural killer cells and T lymphocytes activity.

Reishi can serve as an antidepressant, improving mood and aiding sleep. Additionally, its anti-inflammatory properties may help relieve fibromyalgia symptoms while its polysaccharides boost neurotransmitters such as serotonin in order to elevate mood.

Reishi can be prepared as either a tea, or ground into powder form for addition to coffee, beverages, and soups. Reishi features woody texture with its complex polysaccharides and chitin similar to insect exoskeletons and crustacean shells – challenging our digestive systems to break down – leading to its adaptogenic and immune-supportive properties; its polysaccharides also account for its unique therapeutic effects such as lowering cholesterol, supporting cardiovascular health, decreasing high blood pressure, and fighting cancer.

Lion’s Mane

Lion’s Mane mushrooms are beautiful edible species belonging to the Hericium family with cascading tendrils resembling those seen on lions, making this an attractive edible choice that has long been used medicinally and as culinary herb alike for centuries – much like Reishi; centuries of cultivation have created this mushroom’s rich harvest for medicinal use and culinary consumption alike; also considered an adaptogen, research supports its ability to improve memory retention and brain health.

Nutrients published a study which demonstrated how extracts of lion’s mane could enhance cognitive function, reduce anxiety and depression symptoms in short-term trials, measured using psychological tests as well as vital sign monitoring such as heart rate. Further investigation must be done in larger scale studies in order to validate these results and replicate them successfully.

When purchasing a lion’s mane product, make sure to look for third party testing and avoid those containing starch fillers as this degrades quality and bioactive compounds. Real Mushrooms uses only whole food mushrooms in its supplements without using grain substrate in production processes.

Gluten Free

Gluten is a protein found primarily in wheat, barley, rye and triticale that is used in various food items ranging from cakes, biscuits and pancakes to processed food additives like malt flavouring. People who need to avoid gluten for celiac disease or intolerance purposes must carefully read labels to identify naturally gluten-free ingredients and source these instead.

Many vegetables and fruit naturally contain no gluten, such as potatoes, sweet potato, carrots, squash pumpkin beetroot kale. To get all of the necessary vitamins and nutrients it’s recommended that people follow a vegan diet which allows all beans lentils chickpeas (without seasoning or processing that contains gluten) but check that any seasoning or processing does not contain gluten either. Incorporating meat and fish as part of your meal plan requires caution: just ensure any rubs or marinades do not contain it too! Additionally some vegetable proteins like tofu can become contaminated so it’s best if possible when shopping organic alternatives to ensure safe consumption of its nutritional values.

Many beverages, including milk and dairy products, cider, wines, spirits (such as gin, whisky and vodka) as well as beverages made with barley malt such as soft drinks are naturally gluten-free; it is important to read labels prior to purchasing beers which might contain gluten. Also note that many soft drinks don’t tend to contain it either and should only be enjoyed occasionally (unless specifically marked gluten free)
