TriExtract: Chaga, Reishi, Lion's Mane

Three Mushrooms, One Powerful Blend for Wellnes

Our 3x Extract combines three of nature's most researched mushrooms : Chaga, Reishi, and Lion’s Mane. Each is known for its unique bioactive compounds, offering potent, science-backed support for your health and vitality.

Chaga (Inonotus obliquus)
Recognized for its high concentration of antioxidants and immune-supportive properties, Chaga offers promising contributions to overall health and vitality:

• Immune Support: Contains polysaccharides and triterpenoids that help modulate immune responses and support a balanced inflammatory response.
• Cellular Protection: Rich in melanin and polyphenols, Chaga's compounds help defend cells against oxidative stress, which is associated with age-related cellular changes.
• Energy and Vitality: Supports glycogen stores in liver and muscles, which can help reduce feelings of fatigue.
• Digestive Health: Research suggests Chaga may positively influence gut microbiota, encouraging a balanced digestive environment.

Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum)
Revered in both traditional and modern wellness practices, Reishi is known for its adaptogenic properties, immune system balance, and support for healthy aging:

• Immune Modulation: Polysaccharides and triterpenes in Reishi are associated with immune system balance, promoting resilience by supporting the body’s natural defense mechanisms.
• Cardiovascular and Liver Health: Triterpenes may play a role in cardiovascular and liver function, supporting the body's natural detoxification processes.
• Longevity and Anti-Aging: Reishi contains antioxidant compounds that support cellular DNA and mitochondrial health, associated with cellular longevity.
• Natural Killer Cell Activation: Known to influence natural killer cells, Reishi may play a role in the body’s defense mechanisms.

Lion’s Mane (Hericium erinaceus)
Renowned for its neurotrophic benefits, Lion’s Mane supports brain wellness and cognitive function:

• Cognitive Support: Contains hericenones and erinacines, compounds that have been shown to stimulate nerve growth factor (NGF), essential for neuron health.
• Memory and Learning: Research highlights Lion’s Mane’s role in hippocampal activity, which is crucial for memory processing.
• Oxidative Stress Defense: Antioxidants in Lion’s Mane help protect brain cells from oxidative stress, supporting cognitive wellness.
• Neuronal Health and Regeneration: Promotes axonal growth and synaptic health, supporting neural pathways and neuroplasticity.

Together, Chaga, Reishi, and Lion’s Mane work synergistically, offering a blend of natural ingredients studied for their encouraging effects on:

• Cognitive clarity and memory
• Balanced immune function and cellular wellness
• Energy support and vitality
• Antioxidant properties linked to healthy aging

Our 3x Extract combines these carefully studied natural ingredients into a comprehensive formula for brain and immune support, providing a science-backed approach to promoting wellness and vitality.

As we age, the immune system gradually weakens through a process called immunosenescence, starting around age 20 and accelerating after 50.

This decline increases the risk of age-related diseases, with nearly 95% of adults aged 60 and above experiencing at least one chronic condition, and approximately 80% managing two or more. Data from National Council on Aging (NCOA)

Our 3x Extract, combining Chaga, Reishi, and Lion’s Mane, is formulated to support cognitive clarity, immune resilience, and cellular health - ideal for those seeking a natural & proactive wellness support.

This blend may be especially beneficial if:

You’re 60+ and seeking support for memory, cognitive function, and immune health.

You’re 40+ and you want to maintain vitality and balanced energy levels as you age.

You have factors associated with:

• A family history of cognitive decline (e.g., dementia, Alzheimer’s)
• A sedentary lifestyle
• High levels of stress
• Chronic fatigue
• Extended recovery times
• Mental or brain fog
• Smoking or other lifestyle factors affecting wellness

1. Shake well before use.

2. Start with 2 drops and gradually increase to your desired dose:

• For Cognitive Support: Up to 50 drops per day (2x Dropper Pipette)

• For maintaining vitality and balanced energy levels: 35 drops per day (1x Dropper Pipette)

3. Add the drops to a large glass of water (24cl).

4. Wait one minute before drinking.

5. Take before or during meals, 2x to 3x times a day.
