For November’s health P.O.M (product of the month) I’m still in the Thanksgiving spirit with this one — turkey tail mushroom extract powder! This is something I’ve only tried once, but it’s on my Christmas wish list for sure.
I am a huge fan of powder-based health enhancements lets say: collagen, vitamins, protein, etc. What I love about powder-based items like this, rather than chews or pills, is that it forces me to mix it into something — usually water or a liquid. I am notorious for not drinking enough water in a day, so this is a perfect excuse for me to get a good batch in, on top of all the benefits the powder item is giving me too of course. FreshCap’s powder is easily mixable in coffee, tea, smoothies, and so on — and no don’t worry about the taste, the “mushroom” doesn’t mask over anything trust me.
Here’s why I liked this FreshCap Powder so much:
Turkey Tail mushroom is crazy good for your immune system — which is great for someone like me with an autoimmune disease; why they are good for your immune system is because of these polysaccharopeptides (yep, can’t say that word) they have in them. Now I can’t explain the whole science of why those peptides are immune boosting, but all I know is they help with suppressing inflammation and activating lets say the good immune cells
Contains prebiotics — great for gut health! Another big thing for people with autoimmune diseases — or just people in general really
Great source of antioxidants —another great benefit for your immune system
Lots of studies shown that it is full of a lot of compounds that actually help fight off certain cancers!
Some studies show too that it could help with anti-aging side-effects, as well as boosting your exercise performance — may be the ‘least qualified’ reasons here, but heck if it can do this then I am all in
FreshCap’s powder is non-gmo, vegan, gluten free & paleo
