These herbal supplement powders are blends of powerful, medicinal herbs, mushrooms + spices. Each blend is adaptogenic and formulated to provide different “functional” benefits, such as supporting:
✨ energy & helping prevent stress-induced fatigue
✨ immune function
✨ cognitive function
✨ better sleep
✨ digestive function & more
The dictionary defines “elixir” as a medicinal concoction — that’s pretty bang on! They’re also vegan, paleo & keto-friendly 😊

Unlike “superfoods”, which are generally thought of as ingredients that are a particularly high source of nutrients, “functional” ingredients and products provide health benefits beyond just nutrition — they impact the actual functioning of the body.

The term “adaptogens” refers to certain well-studied herbs and mushrooms that have been shown to:
🍄 help the body adapt to stress and provide a defense response to stress
🍄 help restore & maintain balance of (1) hormones, (2) the immune + nervous systems, and (3) the entire body’s functioning.
You can think of the activity of adaptogens as being similar to that of a thermostat. Just like a thermostat regulates a room’s temperature, preventing it from getting too hot or cold, adaptogens help maintain balance in our bodies during stress by enhancing the overall resistance of the body. 💪
