Cordyceps Mushroom

Famed for giving Chinese Olympic athletes the energy boost they needed to win multiple gold medals, cordyceps holds the reputation of enhancing stamina and endurance. Studies show consuming it can optimize a person's oxygen intake. It helps stabilize blood sugar and speed up muscular recovery after exercise. The benefit that has made cordyceps so in demand in Asia, though, is its reputation for increasing the libido.*

Schisandra Berry

This bright red berry from China is considered extremely valuable because it contains all 5 flavors, sour, sweet, salty, bitter, and pungent that affect all the systems in the body. It is an important tonic herb in Chinese medicine for its revitalizing and harmonizing properties. The berries contain lignans, plant polyphenols that are antioxidants, which have been shown to protect the liver.*

Ramón Seeds

Wild harvested in Guatemala’s Maya Biosphere Reserve, this nutritious seed that combines flavors of coffee and chocolate when roasted provides a source of food and income for rural communities.

Comparable to walnuts for their ability to fight free radicals, Ramón seeds contain more potassium, fiber and calcium than any other bean or grain. It has a complete protein that is high in tryptophan to help calm your nerves in stressful times.*

Chicory

Roasted chicory root, France’s favorite coffee alternative, imparts a smooth, non-acidic, full-bodied depth to Teeccino.

Chicory root contains the highest amount of inulin of any food. Inulin is the prebiotic soluble fiber that feeds your beneficial digestive flora, also called probiotics. Brewing chicory root in hot water naturally extracts its inulin.*
