Lion's Mane Matcha
Lion’s mane matcha latte is our perfect coffee replacement for extra focus in the morning. This superfood drink combines the benefits of Japanese ground green tea and the medicinal mushroom into a delicious latte for mental clarity, focus, productivity and creativity.
Along with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, matcha contains significant amounts of the amino acid L-theanine, which is thought to help with calm and focus. Green tea is also considered a nootropic that assists in focus, memory, and learning. It may even have mild adaptogenic properties and help maintain healthy cortisol levels in response to stress
With antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory characteristics, lion’s mane has a reputation for aiding in the improvement of memory and focus. It’s also believed to have neuroprotective qualities, which may help in restoring and preserving cerebral function
This energizing beverage is warm and comforting and supports mental calm and focus. It’s a wonderful substitute for your morning coffee and makes a terrific addition to study sessions or any other activity that calls for focus and mental work.
