Powerful Ingredients:
Reishi mushroom (Ganoderma lucidum) dual-extract (500 mg)
“The queen of mushrooms” calms you down and ensures better sleep by naturally regulating the hormonal system and lowering cortisol levels.’ Reishi has over 4000 years of history of use, and to this day it is one of the most widely used medicinal mushrooms in the world. Reishi is so praised because of its power to balance us on all levels - physically, mentally and spiritually.
Each packet contains 500 mg of log-grown red reishi mushroom dual extract with at least 30% polysaccharides (15%+ beta-glucans) and 2% triterpenes. No starch, sugars or any fillers at all.
Cacao powder
Our cacao is grown on the volcanic soils of Indonesia. Cacao is an effective mood enhancer, an antioxidant source, and a perfect delivery system for the herbs and mushrooms because it opens up the capillaries. About 50% of each packet is this smooth and flavourful, minimally processed cacao powder.
Coconut palm sugar
Coconut palm sugar is a mineral rich alternative to refined sugars and it has an exceptionally low GI (glycemic index). It is made by boiling down the sap of the coconut palm - it is the maple syrup of tropics! One serving has only 2.5 grams of it for a nice texture and hint of sweetness - the amount compares to about one tenth of the sugars in one banana!
Cinnamon
Sometimes believed to be a panacea, cinnamon sure is an amazing medicinal plant that effectively balances blood sugar levels. The sweet and pungent flavour stimulates your taste buds to complement the fullness of cacao and leave you perfectly satisfied and without any further sweet cravings.
Cardamom
This valued ayurvedic spice brings an awesome flavour and digestion supporting effects to the blend.
Stevia
We add a pinch of stevia leaf extract for calorie-free sweetness to round out the extreme bitterness of the reishi. The amount is barely 0.1% as our stevia is high-quality concentrated extract without any metallic aftertaste.
