Ashwagandha
A 2011 scientific report on this ancient herb published in the Journal of Stress Physiology & Biochemistry indicated that it has anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidizing, and anti-stress properties. The herb is also thought to improve musculoskeletal problems such as arthritis and rheumatism. Its adaptogenic properties tend to be at the forefront of modern supplemental use, believed to help significantly with symptoms of anxiety, in addition to issues with insomnia and brain fog. It is generally recommended to take around 500mg – 600mg of Ashwagandha powder daily, which tends to be around a teaspoon of powder in each approximate serving size found in our creamers. Read More
Coconut Milk
Coconut milk contains medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), which stimulate energy through a process called thermogenesis. Studies indicate that MCTs work to reduce unwanted body weight, and may also balance out unstable gut microbiota. In addition, coconut milk contains many beneficial compounds such as lauric acid, antimicrobial lipids, and capric acid; all of which have antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral properties. Read More. The powdered makeup of the organic coconut milk used as the base of all of our products is significantly more shelf stable than the otherwise compositionally identical liquid versions. We have also found that our specific choice of coconut milk carries an extremely neutral taste so that our products can be enjoyable to those who may typically dislike coconut "flavor."
Lavender
In addition to its pleasant scent, lavender has a variety of researched benefits, which include its ability to relieve stress, improve mood, promote restful sleep, lower skin irritation, prevent infections, reduce inflammation, eliminate dandruff, and soothe stomach bloating. Read More
Maca Root
The commonly recognized health benefits of maca root include relief from problems related to menstruation and menopause, increasing energy/stamina levels, improving sexual health, and boosting bone and immune system health. Read More. The maca used in our products is deliberately cooked (often referred to as gelatinized or activated maca) because raw maca root is made of a structure of complex starches which are almost impossible for our digestive systems to break down, and this is a common mistake people make when purchasing maca products. Read More
Cinnamon
Available evidence suggests that cinnamon has anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antioxidant, cardiovascular, cholesterol-lowering, and immunomodulatory effects. Most commonly, cinnamon has been linked to improvement in blood sugar regulation. Read More
Peppermint
There is a wide range of health effects associated with peppermint including its ability to relieve hay fever symptoms, prevent nausea, vomiting, and improve memory and cognitive performance, among many others. Read More

Since the time of Ayurveda (1900 BC) numerous therapeutic activities have been assigned to turmeric for a wide variety of diseases and conditions, including those of the skin, pulmonary, and gastrointestinal systems, aches, pains, wounds, sprains, and liver disorders. Read More
Fermented Mushrooms
Not the same as common button mushrooms, the traditional dynamic mushroom combo used in our products is a powerful immune choice that is naturally rich in vitamins, minerals, and immunomodulating polysaccharides. This blend contains four of the most well-known potent mushrooms, including reishi, himematsutake, shitake, turkey tails, and maitake. These specific species offer a high-value of important prebiotic dietary fiber and probiotic-fermented nutritional support. Mushrooms are also a good source of vitamins and minerals including vitamin C, B-vitamins (niacin, riboflavin, thiamin, folate), vitamin D, selenium, potassium, phosphorus, magnesium, and sodium.

Cashew Milk
The powerful health benefits of cashews may include a healthy heart, strong nerve and muscle function, and improved bone and oral health. They have also been studied to provide some relief from diabetes, anemia, and gallstones. By offering an antioxidant defense, they also encourage a better immune system. Read More
The powdered consistency of the organic cashew milk used in our products is far more shelf stable than the otherwise identical liquid versions.
Ginger
For thousands of years, ginger has been used in traditional medicine, thanks to its rich supply of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds, such as gingerol, beta-carotene, capsaicin, and curcumin. It is probably known best for its digestive benefits, especially in aiding with symptoms of nausea. Read More
Prebiotics
Prebiotics are compounds that are naturally occurring in specific foods that are able to improve the health of the gut microflora, specifically the beneficial bacteria that play a key role in digestion and immune protection. Some of the specific prebiotic compounds used in our products are gum acacia, fructooligosacharide (FOS), resistant dextrin, and inulin. As reported in Digestive and Liver Disease, FOS specifically can help suppress Clostridium perfringens, a toxic bacteria associated with food poisoning. One animal study reported in The Journal of Nutrition indicated that FOS may also provide some protection against salmonella, and other food-borne illness. Read More
Probiotics
Probiotics are commonly used to maintain a healthy balance of microbes in the lower intestinal tract, help us digest food, fight harmful bacteria, and regulate the immune system. They can reduce gastrointestinal symptoms that are not due to acute illness, such as gas, bloating, and constipation by helping to maintain the vital "good bacteria" in our digestive tract. Our products use 13 Probiotic Strains including: Lactobacillus reuteri (100mg), Lactobacillus thermophilus (100mg), Lactobacillus acidophilus (100mg), Lactobacillus rhamnosus (100mg), Baby lactic acid bacteria (25mg), Bifidobacterium lactis (20mg), Lactobacillus gasseri (10mg), Bifidobacterium (10mg), Lactobacillus casei (10mg), B. Breve (10mg), Lactobacillus salivarius (10mg), Lactobacillus paracasei (5mg), Lactobacillus plantarum (2mg). Read More
Cayenne Pepper
The health benefits of cayenne pepper, also known as mirchi, include weight loss, good digestion, strong immunity, good blood circulation. Additionally, it may provide relief from heart diseases, dyspepsia, inflammation, headaches, and throat congestion. Read More
Vanilla Extract Powder
Besides being a decadent and common flavor used in our everyday foods, vanilla has been shown to have a number of important benefits, including its ability to reduce acne, improve hair growth, speed healing, reduce inflammation, prevent chronic diseases, protect the heart, and much more. Read More. The vanilla we use in our products is specifically water extracted, meaning there is no alcohol used in the process, and no alcohol content whatsoever unlike typical liquid vanilla extract.
Pumpkin
Pumpkins are far more than a seasonal treat, as they are packed with nutrients such as vitamin A, beta carotene, as well as moderate amounts of many other important compounds including copper, iron, B vitamins, folate, vitamin E, phosphorous and magnesium. In a single cup of this vegetable, there are only 30 calories, which makes it ideal for many weight loss diets. There are also several types of polyphenolic antioxidants, low levels of fat, and small amounts of protein and dietary fiber. Pumpkin has been connected to a number of health benefits, such as the ability to improve vision, protect cardiovascular health, boost immunity, increase fertility, and improve bone mineral density, among others.

Acerola (Barbados Cherry)
Apart from containing an exorbitant amount of ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) the fruit also contains several phytonutrients like carotenoids, phenolics, flavonoids, and anthocyanins. It also possesses numerous biofunctional properties, making this super fruit of great functional importance. Read More on the latest research publications.
Camu Camu
The most commonly considered benefits of the camu camu fruit include its ability to aid in weight loss, boost the immune system, protect against liver injuries and chronic diseases, and reduce inflammation. It is rich in Vitamin C which helps to detoxify the body and prevent viral infections. It is also thought to be good for reducing mood swings, promoting eye health, improving sexual health, and preventing cognitive disorders. Read More
Monk Fruit
Monk fruit is a small green melon frequently utilized in Eastern medicine as a cold and digestive aid. Removing the seeds and skin of the fruit, crushing it, and then collecting the juice transforms the solid fruit into a zero-calorie, sugar-like substance that provides natural sweetness. Mogrosides are the specific compounds that give monk fruit their sweet flavor and allow it to travel through the body undigested. Meaning, they do not contribute any caloric value, nor do they raise blood sugar levels. Rather than being absorbed in the upper gastrointestinal tract like most food, mogrosides travel to the colon. Gut microbes use the glucose molecules for energy while the rest is excreted through the urinary system. Considering these factors, monk fruit is the primary natural sweetening agent in our creamers.

Dates
Dates contain a plethora of vitamins and minerals including calcium, vitamin K, and magnesium, which are all needed for healthy bones. Dates also contain selenium which is an antioxidant that helps prevent tissue and cell damage from toxins, and folate which is a B vitamin involved in healthy red blood cell formation and important in pregnancy. While we use dates as a form of sugar content and flavor, dates are also high in fiber, which helps to slow down digestion and may prevent blood sugar level spikes. Eating dates with some protein and healthy fats found in our creamers, will slow down this unwanted spike (and crash) in blood sugar levels further. Read More
