What are adaptogens?

Adaptogens are natural plant and fungal substances that help the body cope with stress and improve hormonal balance. Their role is to support the body in dealing with challenging situations, enhancing immunity, endurance, and emotional stability.

Due to their properties, adaptogens support the immune system, reduce fatigue, improve concentration, and help restore balance in bodies exposed to chronic stress. When added to various beverages or dishes, they can provide powerful support for both body and mind.

Lion’s Mane and Chaga – adaptogens in Barista Mushroom Drops

Lion’s Mane (Hericium erinaceus) is a mushroom that supports brain health by improving cognitive abilities, concentration, and memory. It contains compounds like hericenones and erinacines that stimulate the production of nerve growth factor (NGF), which supports the regeneration of neurons and improves brain function. Lion’s Mane can be particularly beneficial for older individuals who want to enhance their memory and maintain high cognitive abilities.

Chaga (Inonotus obliquus) is a mushroom known for its powerful anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and detoxifying properties. Thanks to the presence of triterpenes, betulinic acid, and other bioactive compounds, Chaga supports detoxification, strengthens the immune system, and improves overall well-being. It also helps reduce stress and supports liver health, making it an excellent choice for daily use to improve health.
