  Ingredient research · Vitamin C

  Vitamin C is an essential water-soluble nutrient that supports collagen production, antioxidant defenses, and the normal function of immune cells. Supplementation reliably prevents or corrects deficiency, can improve absorption of plant-based iron, and may modestly shorten the duration of common colds when taken regularly.

  • Supports lower common-cold risk during brief periods of severe physical exercise or cold stress.
  • Supports circulating Vitamin C status across studied healthy and clinical populations.
  • Supports short-term blood-pressure and endothelial-function outcomes in studied adults.
  • Supports fasting-glucose and HbA1c outcomes in adults with type 2 diabetes.

  • organic Maitake

    Ingredient research · Maitake

    Maitake is an edible mushroom whose extracts are commonly supplemented for their beta-glucan-rich polysaccharides, compounds that can interact with immune signaling. It may modestly support immune or metabolic health, including blood-sugar regulation, but human research on Maitake itself remains limited and benefits can depend on the extract used.

  • organic Reishi

    Ingredient research · Reishi Mushroom

    Reishi Mushroom is a medicinal fungus containing polysaccharides and triterpenes, traditionally used and now supplemented mainly for immune support, fatigue, stress, and sleep. These uses are biologically plausible, but demonstrated human benefits remain limited and inconsistent, and effects may depend heavily on the extract and preparation.

  • organic Yamabushitake

    Ingredient research · Lion's Mane

    Lion's Mane is an edible mushroom containing compounds that may influence nerve-growth signaling, making it a popular supplement for memory, focus, and nerve health. Human research suggests possible cognitive and mood benefits, but these effects remain uncertain, and mushroom-part and extraction differences can produce substantially different products.

  • organic Shiitake

    Ingredient research · Shiitake Mushrooms

    Shiitake Mushrooms are edible fungi rich in polysaccharides, including beta-glucans, that can interact with immune pathways. Supplements and extracts are mainly used with the aim of supporting immune function and cardiovascular health, but benefits from the whole mushroom are not established and cannot be assumed from research on isolated constituents.

  • organic Chaga

    Ingredient research · Chaga

    Chaga is a dark fungal growth formed mainly on birch trees and consumed as tea or extract for its concentrated polyphenols and other bioactive compounds. It is taken chiefly for proposed antioxidant and immune effects, but meaningful benefits for human health remain uncertain because research is largely laboratory-based.

• organic Ginger

  45 mg

  Ingredient research · Ginger

  Ginger is a pungent botanical commonly supplemented for its effects on the digestive tract. It can help relieve nausea, especially during pregnancy, and may modestly ease menstrual cramps or osteoarthritis-related pain through compounds that influence gut signaling and inflammatory pathways.

  • Supports nausea and vomiting measures during pregnancy.
  • Supports menstrual pain and heavy-bleeding measures in young women with primary dysmenorrhea or heavy menstrual bleeding.
  • Supports glycemic and lipid markers in adults with type 2 diabetes or related cardiometabolic conditions.
  • Supports selected inflammatory and oxidative-stress markers across adults with metabolic and inflammatory conditions.
  • Supports arthritis symptom and disease-activity measures in adults with knee osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis.
