As a powerful a partner in wellness as CBD is, it’s not the only compound we rely on at HempLucid. You’ve probably heard about adaptogens, a class of plants and fungi that support our health in an astonishingly wide variety of ways. And when it comes to fighting stress, we rely on four key adaptogens in our immune support capsules:
- Reishi: In addition to supporting the adrenal glands which create the stress hormone cortisol, Reishi mushrooms can also support your body’s innate immune system
- Cordyceps: This adaptogenic mushroom can reduce physical stressors related to free radicals and inflammation, while also stimulating the immune system
- Turkey Tail: Turkey Tail may bolster immune response, while improving the health of another important player in general immunity: the gut’s microbiome
- Chaga: This mushroom is an excellent antioxidant that also possesses antiviral and immune-stimulating properties
We use the highest quality extracts to stack the benefits of these adaptogenic mushrooms with hemp-derived CBD in our Immune Stacks Capsules.
You’ll find reishi and cordyceps in our Stress Mushroom Gummies, while our Stress Stacks Capsules blend this full suite of adpatogenic mushrooms to compound stress relieving benefits and lighten your load.
In addition to promising data suggesting that Lion’s Mane can enhance the activities of neurotransmitters, Lion's Mane compounds have been shown to potentially increase the levels of nerve growth factor (NGF) in the brain. NGF is a protein that plays an important role in the health of nerve cells, which is vital for cognitive function, memory, and concentration.
