The Ultimate Functional Coffee
Adaptogens are herbs and mushrooms that help your body adapt to stress. Combined with coffee, they create a balanced, sustained energy that supports rather than depletes your system.
Understanding Adaptogens
- Ashwagandha: Reduces cortisol and anxiety
- Maca: Supports energy and hormone balance
- Chaga: Immune support and antioxidants
Why This Combination Works
Coffee alone can spike cortisol and trigger anxiety. Adaptogens help modulate that stress response, creating calm, focused energy instead of jittery alertness.
The Chaga Foundation
Chaga Coffee is already an adaptogenic mushroom coffee. Adding ashwagandha and maca creates a triple-adaptogen powerhouse for comprehensive stress support.
Start Slow
Adaptogens are potent. Start with smaller amounts (half doses) and build up as your body adjusts. Effects compound over time with consistent use.
Building Your Adaptogen Routine
For best results:
- Take daily for at least 4-6 weeks
- Cycle off occasionally (1 week per month)
- Pay attention to how your body responds
