Different microbiomes in and on the body are supported by different strains of bacteria that originate in the gut. Yep! The gut microbiome is different than the vaginal microbiome or skin microbiome, but acts as the home base for all of them. Because of this, we’ve created different blends of probiotics that each focus on supporting a different part of our bodies via the gut.

You may notice the terms adaptogen and nootropics used interchangeably, that’s because some plants and herbs can act as both an adaptogen and a nootropic and as such, and their benefits may cross over. However, the primary aim of nootropics and adaptogens is different and distinct. Nootropics work to enhance brain health and cognitive performance (Coffee, Green Tea, L-theanine, Creatine), whereas adaptogens focus on reducing both mental and physical stress (Lion’s Mane Mushroom, Cordyceps, Ashwagandha, Turmeric).

The gut-brain axis (GBA) consists of bidirectional communication between the central and the enteric nervous system, linking emotional and cognitive centers of the brain with peripheral intestinal functions. In other words, when you have butterflies in your stomach, that’s a signal of your gut and brain being connected. Studies show that your brain affects your gut health and your gut may even affect your brain health. The communication system between your gut and brain is called the gut-brain axis.

Phosphatidylserine (PS) is vital for the brain because this phospholipid is found in all cells, but most highly concentrated in brain cell wall membranes. Phosphatidylserine helps in the storage, release and activity of neurotransmitters and their receptors. As its production declines as we age it can be a good idea to invest in supplementation of this nootropic, which can help boost cognition, focus, memory, and recall. Also ours is derived from sunflowers, how cool is that?

Mushroom consumption provides loads of plant compounds that can support your brain health. They can help with memory, mental clarity, cognitive functions, and some fatigue. Lion’s Mane, along with most other medicinal mushrooms has shown the ability to pass the blood-brain-barrier and can support learning and memory, while Reishi supports brain health by boosting mood and immunity.
