Organic Red Maca
Organic Red Maca also known as Peruvian Ginseng is actually a root vegetable. Our maca is grown by a co-operative of local farmers in Peru at just above 4,000 metres, in the Carhuamayo province of the ‘Meseta del Bombón’. The maca seed is sown in September at the start of the rainy season. After sowing, the seeds are buried using branches or sheep are released into the field to trample them into the ground. The maca roots are dug out by hand using a small hoe called a cashu to avoid damaging them, then laid out under the sun for 10-15 days until they are dried. They are quickly transported to a local processing plant where they are carefully weighed, cleaned and only the best quality roots selected for processing. Without the use of chemicals they are milled into a fine powder and tested for microbes. This plant was first documented in the Peruvian Andes, where the Incas used it as a stamina and strength booster for their warriors. It is an adaptogen, a natural substance that promotes homeostasis in the body by normalising the production of stress hormones, keeping you calm during stressful situations. It is also known as a powerful aphrodisiac for both men and women and a powerful source of antioxidant activity, stimulating glutathione and antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD) production. This powerful antioxidant action provides tremendous support to a healthy immune system, promoting overall health and longevity. These antioxidants work to fight off free radicals in the body that damage the cells and cause disease. We’ve chosen red maca for our Woman 01 powder as it has been shown to be the best maca for women looking to boost their fertility and regulate menstrual cycles. Red Maca is the type of Maca that is highest in phytontutrients and could improve female libido. Due to the levels of glucosinolate, maca also contains wonderful hormone-balancing properties.
Organic Raw Camu Camu
This berry is so good they named it twice. The Camu Camu berry is a shrub that grows in the Amazon rainforest. It is one of the world’s highest source of vitamin C on the planet. It has 60 times more Vitamin C than an orange and 56 times more Vitamin C than a lemon. In fact, one single teaspoon of camu camu powder has 1180% of your recommended daily intake! Don’t panic you can’t overdose on vitamin C you just excrete it! There is a lot of evidence in fact to vitamin C therapy in curing a whole host of illnesses by stimulating white blood cell production, which significantly boosts the immune system. The natural antiseptic qualities of camu camu make it ideal for fending off bacterial and viral infections. The high levels of Vitamin C in Camu Camu can also stimulate the brain to produce more serotonin, which enhances mood, protecting against depression. The powerful antioxidants work to reduce free radicals in the body and have the ability to slow down and improve the aging process and reduce inflammation.
Organic Ashwaganda
Organic Ashwaganda is from the same family as the tomato, it is a plump shrub with oval leaves and yellow flowers but it is the root of organic plants that is used for our powder. One of the most popular adaptogens and for good reason. Its ability to induce calmness and clarity by regulating neurotransmitters such as serotonin and the stress hormone cortisol means it can have a calming effect on your body, relieving stress which can come from daily modern life, such as chemicals in non organic food, pollutants and the stress of work and home life. On the other hand, it can fire up your body and give you energy when you’re feeling fatigued and burned out. Ashwagandha increases your antioxidant levels, high antioxidant levels trigger production of collagen. This allows the skin to keep its youthful appearance and helps in the production of natural oils. It also fights off free radicals that cause wrinkles, dark spots and blemishes. Ashwagandha may be of particular benefit to athletes because of its ability to reduce cortisol levels, increase energy, enhance endurance, reduce recovery time between exercise sessions, boost overall exercise performance, exert antioxidant effects, and boost immune system function adrenal function. It is right at the top of the super dooper crazy good adaptogenic tree. Believe us.
Organic Wild Chaga
The ‘king of the medicinal mushrooms’, often referred to as “black gold” and one of the only vegan protein powder on the planet (we can find) that contains it. It is a rare and highly prized mushroom that grows on birch trees under extreme climatic conditions. We’re also just a little excited to be using Wild Organic Chaga. After harvesting, our supplier uses low temperature drying techniques to preserve all the vital enzymes and nutrients. Many of Chaga’s enzymes, antioxidants, and antibiotics appear to develop only as a side effect of years in a harsh environment. Cultivated Chaga is not involved in a struggle for survival and therefore will not develop the same range of complex antioxidants and other components. Chaga constitutes perhaps the greatest storehouse of medicinal healing properties of any single mushroom— or any herb, for that matter. This alkalising tree mushroom is composed of a dense configuration of antioxidant pigments, distinguishing it from other medicinal mushrooms chaga helps to reduce the workload of the immune system as a whole. Chaga mushroom strengthens and stimulates the liver to speed up the metabolising of fats and the removal of toxins from the blood all of which could reduce cellulite. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is present in chaga in substantial quantities. SOD efficiently neutralizes the damage done by free radicals, protects against disease and slows down the aging process. In the ORAC scale, a scale which was designed to measure the ability of food to deal with oxidative stress and absorb free radical damage, chaga has the highest rating. It has up to 50 times more SOD enzymes than fruit juices, leafy greens, truffles, and seaweed. Chaga gets its distinctive dark color because of its very high melanin content. Melanin is a powerful antioxidant that is known to protect the genes and the DNA. Melanin is also the main pigment present in our skin and experts suggest that Chaga’s melanin content can enhance the health of your skin, keeping it beautiful and supple. Researchers found that the chaga can significantly improve physical endurance the glycogen content of both muscle and liver increased while lactic acid levels in the bloodstream decreased. Simply put, the chaga mushroom can offer less fatigue and better endurance.
