L-Theanine
L-Theanine is an amino acid found in tea leaves that offers many health benefits, such as stress management. It works to create feelings of calmness and relaxation without drowsiness or giving the same jitters associated with caffeine consumption, and may help boost focus and concentration – research has even indicated its ability to improve performance on tasks like the Stroop test and four-part continuous performance task.
L-Theanine can help improve your mood because it acts as a neurotransmitter in the brain. It interacts with glutamate receptors and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), relaxing both body and mind. Furthermore, L-theanine can increase production of Acetylcholine for memory retention and learning purposes.
L-theanine not only acts as a natural relaxant, but it can also improve sleep quality. A study demonstrated this fact: L-theanine was shown to reduce anxiety and improve overall quality of rest for children with ADHD; furthermore it can reduce insomnia in adults while simultaneously decreasing nightmare frequency while improving architecture of restful night’s rest.
L-theanine has also been demonstrated to aid attention in healthy people with an anxiety propensity, significantly decreasing response times on the Stroop test and increasing correct answers on four-part continuous performance tasks. Furthermore, its use was found to decrease rates of omission errors on working memory tasks.
Studies have also demonstrated that L-theanine can prevent psychological stress and pain-induced blood pressure increases by engaging glutamate receptors, upregulating GABA receptors, and increasing antioxidant enzyme production.
KetoBrainz Nootropic Coffee Creamer is formulated from an assortment of mushrooms and brain-boosting ingredients, including C8 MCT which has been shown to double ketone energy reaching the brain, Alpha GPC which converts into acetylcholine across blood-brain barriers to boost mental clarity and focus, Lion’s Mane mushroom known to protect against oxidative stress, as well as Lion’s Mane mushroom which protects against it all resulting in a non-dairy, sugar free, vegan and keto friendly formula that will keep you focused, clear-headed, alert, focused and productive all day long!
MCT Oil
MCT oil has quickly gained a following among ketogenic dieters, athletes, and those seeking cognitive and weight management support. This type of fat converts directly to ketones for energy while simultaneously creating feelings of fullness in the stomach. MCTs typically come from coconuts or palm kernel oils but it can come in liquid form, powder form, or soft gels as well.
MCTs feature shorter carbon chains than most other fats, enabling them to pass more quickly through the digestive tract and be absorbed more easily into the body. By contrast, most fats require the production of bile to digest them – slowing down absorption. MCT oil contains medium chain triglycerides that are quickly absorbed by the body; caprylic acid is often the preferred MCT since it quickly dissolves in water without leaving behind residue behind on dishes or plates.
MCT oil can be easily added to coffee, smoothies and soups – you could even sprinkle a pinch in baked goods or salad dressings! Most experts advise starting off slowly and working up to three tablespoons daily; everyone’s digestive systems respond differently so it is wise to start out small before increasing dosage gradually.
Some studies have demonstrated the benefits of MCTs to help with weight loss and may promote feelings of satiety, in addition to supporting healthy metabolism and decreasing accumulation of new fat cells. More research needs to be conducted before conclusively confirming these claims; nonetheless, before trying any supplement it is advised that you speak with your primary care physician first.
Although there are various MCT supplements on the market, you should opt for those made from coconut and palm oils because these two sources do not contain trans fats or glycerol that could harm your health. Furthermore, high temperatures could damage its molecular structure.
Calcium
Calcium may be best known for its role in bone health, but this mineral also plays a vital role in other bodily processes. According to registered dietitian Beth Czerwony, calcium aids with muscle contraction and nerve transmission, regulates blood pressure levels and hormone production levels, as well as aiding communication among cells.
The daily recommended allowance of calcium is 1,000 milligrams. Foods such as yogurt, cheeses and buttermilk provide excellent sources of this mineral; other dairy products enriched with vitamin D such as milk fortified with it as well as ready-to-eat cereals are also great sources. Calcium supplements are also widely available, with calcium carbonate (Rolaids or Tums) being among the easiest-to-absorb forms. While this medication can be taken either with food or alone, eating seems to aid the body in better absorbing it. Calcium citrate, calcium gluconate, and calcium phosphate are among the many forms of calcium available in food and supplements. Short-term high intake usually does not lead to side effects; however, prolonged high consumption could potentially lead to kidney stones for those lacking enough vitamin D absorption.
To reduce osteoporosis, it is vital that sufficient amounts of calcium exist in the blood. This is achieved through self-regulation by your body when senses that too little calcium exists – when too little, the body borrows calcium from bones in order to keep a balance and ensure that adequate levels are available – though too often this practice could lead to weakened and more easily broken bones.
Calcium is one of the few nutrients that can be easily absorbed from food directly into bloodstream and tissue. Therefore, it’s crucial that we consume appropriate foods as part of a balanced diet while taking calcium supplements in moderation.
Lion’s Mane Mushroom
Lion’s mane mushrooms may help improve cognitive health. Initial studies have demonstrated its efficacy by improving brain function and increasing blood flow to the head, providing mental clarity and increasing mental clarity. It may also promote inner calmness while supporting healthy aging processes.
However, research on this hairy fungus remains limited; most studies on animals or cells in vitro were completed; there is currently only one randomized controlled study for human participants comparing Lion’s Mane with placebo (which should soon be concluded), so more evidence needs to be accumulated before establishing whether this adaptogen works effectively or not.
Lion’s mane extract has been demonstrated in some trials to reduce anxiety and depression, possibly through raising serotonin levels responsible for creating positive moods. Other research indicates it may even help improve memory retention or decrease brain fog.
Lion’s mane nootropic creamers offer an easy and efficient way to reap the benefits of this herb without over-consumption of caffeine. Concocted using organic ingredients like MCT oil, L-theanine, and lion’s mane mushroom powder; these nootropic products help improve focus, reduce jitters, and maintain healthy blood sugar levels while supporting overall wellbeing.
Many non-dairy nootropic creamers also include various other functional mushrooms and herbs to boost their effects, including cordyceps, tremella and turkey tail mushrooms as well as turmeric and ashwagandha which have been shown to increase energy levels and decrease stress levels.
Mushroom elixirs and tinctures are concentrated liquid extracts made by soaking mushrooms in alcohol or another solvent, which can then be taken sublingually for rapid absorption or added to tea, broths, beverages or foods for enhanced bioavailability. They provide numerous health benefits that make these supplements highly bioavailable.
A great nootropic coffee creamer should contain high-grade ingredients without fillers, additives, and synthetic substances. Look for one that is independently lab-tested and organically produced; look out for products cultivated organically from lion’s mane mushrooms which have higher concentrations of hericenones and erinacines which provide neuroprotective benefits.
