MEET THE CHAMPIGNONS
TREMELLA
Tremella mushroom (Tremella fuciformis), also known as snow fungus, is prized for its skin-hydrating properties. Its polysaccharides help retain moisture and it acts similarly to hyaluronic acid by attracting moisture to the skin, promoting a youthful and glowing complexion by improving skin elasticity and hydration.
Additionally, Tremella supports immune function and overall health. It is known for its antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties that protect against oxidative stress and bolster the body's defences.
REISHI
Reishi mushroom (Ganoderma lucidum), is known for its potential benefits in improving sleep quality. It contains compounds that can help regulate the sleep-wake cycle and promote relaxation.
Reishi's adaptogenic properties help the body manage stress, which is often a contributing factor to sleep disturbances. By reducing stress and anxiety levels, Reishi may enhance sleep duration and quality, allowing for more restorative rest.
Additionally, Reishi is known for its calming effects on the nervous system, which can contribute to better sleep patterns. It has been traditionally used to alleviate symptoms of insomnia and improve overall sleep efficiency.
MAITAKE
Maitake mushroom (Grifola frondosa), is known for its immune-boosting properties, thanks to compounds like beta-glucans that stimulate the immune system and enhance its response to infections.
It also contains polysaccharides and antioxidants that help to reduce inflammation and protect against oxidative stress, promoting overall health and vitality.
It is also recognised for its potential to regulate blood sugar levels. Studies suggest that it may improve insulin sensitivity and help manage blood glucose levels.
