PLANT & MUSHROOM PROPERTIES

ANTI-INFLAMMATORY ~ ANTIOXIDANT ~ ADAPTOGENIC

Anti-inflammatory refers to a substance or treatment that reduces inflammation in the body. Inflammation is a natural response of the immune system to injury, infection, or harmful stimuli. It's characterized by redness, swelling, pain, and sometimes heat in the affected area such as joints, muscles, or organs. While inflammation is a protective process, chronic or excessive inflammation can contribute to various health problems, such as arthritis, allergies, autoimmune diseases, and even heart disease. Anti-inflammatory agents work by reducing the production of certain chemicals in the body that cause inflammation, or by blocking the inflammatory response altogether.

Antioxidants are substances that help protect your cells from damage caused by free radicals, which are unstable molecules that can harm your body. Antioxidants neutralize these harmful molecules and help keep your body healthy.

Adaptogens help balance cortisol levels, which is known as the "stress hormone," reducing the negative effects of chronic stress and promoting overall hormonal balance, including thyroid (metabolism and energy), sex (mood and reproductive health), and insulin (blood sugar) hormones.
