InvestorsHub NewsWire -- The

for smoothies.
Flourish Mushroom Labs Ayurvedic mushroom
coffee
"These formulations
provide powerful brain and immune-boosting benefits thanks to their
powerful antioxidant and nutrient-rich formulas," said Penny White,
CEO of The Yield Growth Corp. "Along with their powerful health
profile, these products are made with fair-trade, organic
ingredients."
The Ayurvedic coffees and botanical
shots are planned for launch in early summer of 2020 and contain
immune-boosting medicinal mushrooms: reishi, chaga, lion's mane and
turkey tail. According to Mordor Intelligence, the global market
for functional mushrooms is forecasted to reach $34.3 billion by
2024, growing at a CAGR of 8.04% between 2019 and 2024.
"Immune-boosting
foods and supplements are in high demand throughout the cold and
flu season and are particularly important for anyone who is
especially susceptible to illness, including older individuals or
those with chronic conditions may be more vulnerable. The recent
Coronavirus outbreak has also sparked increased interest in
immune-boosting foods and supplements."
Chaga mushrooms have been used for
centuries in Siberia and Asia as medicine to reduce inflammation,
boost immunity and improve overall health. Chaga also has the
ability to lower high blood sugar and combat abnormal and mutagenic
cell growth.
Turkey Tail also contains a community
of powerful antioxidants and other compounds that may help boost
your immune system and may even fight certain cancers. Some
scientific studies have also shown that Turkey Tail may also
improve gut bacteria balance.
Reishi is one of the most popular
medicinal mushrooms and is known to be used to assist in weight
loss, boost immunity and fight certain cancer cells. What makes it
unique though are its calming properties thanks to a compound
called triterpene that it contains. This can help to promote
healing, sharpen focus, alleviate anxiety, ease depression, and
encourage better sleep.
Lion's Mane is also packed with antioxidants and also
strengthens the immune system, but it also has other unique
benefits that foster mental clarity and brain health. For example,
it aids in the production of the bioprotein nerve growth factor
(NFG) and myelin, which acts as "insulation" around nerve fibers
and helps to fight the onset of neurological diseases such as
Alzheimer's and multiple sclerosis.
"For centuries humans around the globe have used herbs and
plants to cure or prevent illness. Plants are the life force energy
for our food, oxygen, and medicine," said Bhavna Solecki, director
of product development for The Yield Growth Corp. "We are working
to bring these ancient traditions and plant-based remedies
mainstream."
The Ayurvedic shots contain herbs
such as holy basil and moringa.
Holy
basil, known as the "Queen of Herbs" helps to build natural
immunity, detoxify blood and promotes cellular regeneration. It
also acts as a strong antiseptic against many kinds of
disease-causing organisms, including bacteria, fungi, and
parasites.
Moringa is referred to as the "Tree of Life" in India. Moringa leaf
is a rich source of nutrients and antioxidants and has super
immune-boosting powers. It supports the liver as an antioxidant,
helps to relieve allergies and stomach disorders and also is known
to act as an antidepressant.
