Ingredients & How They Scientifically Work
Chaga
High in betulinic acid and polyphenols: known for immune modulation and antioxidant activity. Also rich in beta-glucans to support immunity.
Reishi
Contains triterpenes (ganoderic acids), studied for their ability to support immune resilience and reduce stress levels.
Green Tea
Rich in catechins and L-theanine: powerful antioxidants that support immune function and cognitive alertness.
What is the scientific literature behind these ingredients?

Chaga:
- Major: Betulinic acid & polyphenols – potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compounds.
- Major: Beta-glucans – known for modulating immune system function.
Reishi:
- Major: Triterpenes (ganoderic acids) – enhance immune response and stress adaptation.
- Minor: Beta-glucans – supportive, but less dominant in effect compared to triterpenes.
