Not many people realize the power of the gut-brain and how important a happy gut is to our overall health and well-being!
The gut has hundreds of millions of neurons that can function fairly independently and are in constant communication with the brain—explaining the ability to feel “butterflies” in the stomach. Stress, diet, and lifestyle can affect this brain-gut communication, and may trigger pain, bloating, and other gut discomfort to be felt more easily. The gut is also inhabited by millions of bacteria which can influence its health and the brain’s health, which can impact the ability to think and affect emotions.
We designed this stack to ultra-boost your gut health. Starting with Immunity– this heavy hitter was designed with a focus on the gut-brain connection through the vagus nerve. Most people don’t realize but this is the second largest data highway in our body connecting directly to the serotonin and dopamine systems. The Immunity blend provides beta-glucans and polysaccharides to the gut to improve overall immunity, organ and microbiome health.
Next, we have our natural killer Turkey Tail. Turkey Tail is high in the protein-bound polysaccharides PSK and PSP – both types of beta-glucans. It is these compounds, that are thought to be responsible for their powerful immune boosting properties – improving the ability of the immune system’s natural killer cells which protect the body against viruses and bacteria. Turkey Tail is also known to contain anti-inflammatory and antioxidant compounds, which can further support gut health by reducing inflammation and oxidative stress in the digestive tract. This can help to improve the integrity of the gut lining and reduce the risk of conditions like leaky gut syndrome.
Last but not least we have the King of the mushroom kingdom Lion’s Mane, used for centuries in traditional Chinese medicine to support gut health. It is rich in bioactive compounds, including polysaccharides, beta-glucans, and erinacines, that have been shown to have prebiotic effects on the gut microbiome. Compounds that are believed to promote the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut, while inhibiting the growth of harmful bacteria. This can lead to a healthier gut microbiome, which is essential for proper digestion and overall health. There is also research to suggest Lion’s Mane may have neuroprotective and cognitive-enhancing properties. By supporting the health of the nervous system and brain, the Lion’s Mane may indirectly benefit the gut by promoting better digestion and reducing stress, which can improve gut health as a whole. This whole spectrum mushroom bundle contains all the needs for a healthy gut and overall wellness to boost the body to the moon and above
This can be stacked as a high-impact immunity and gut health routine or cycled month-to-month product by product.
Here’s to you and your new gut!
