Benefits

Brave Mood™ helps to harmonize the gut-brain axis, leading to improved energy, memory, immunity, digestion, mood and skin.*

Per serving:

• 14 G of complete hemp seed protein to promote energy and stamina*
• Custom probiotic blend of 10 billion CFUs to enhance immunity, soothe digestion, and support glowing skin*
• 1.5 G of plant-based prebiotic yacon root to balance gut flora*
• 2 G of adaptogenic and nootropic lion’s mane mushroom to increase concentration, memory, and cognitive function*

Unlike other plant proteins, hemp seed protein is a non-bloating complete protein with all 20 amino acids including the 9 essential amino acids, omegas 6 & 3, and is one of the most earth-friendly protein sources on the planet. Hemp can grow up to 12 inches per week, and uses a tiny fraction of the water per gram of protein as animal protein.

Probiotics improve gut flora. They work by affecting the nerves that control gut function. The microbes that make up our microbiome weigh more than a human brain, and scientists are starting to see how they can have just as much influence over our minds as our bodies. Our gut flora can absorb nutrients in ways that the human body cannot, making a healthy gut essential for well-being and a balanced mood. 

Each strain in our custom probiotic blend occurs naturally in a healthy microbiome and is responsible for creating some of the most healing fermented foods in the human diet.

⚡️ Bifidobacterium breve

• Plays a role in how our bodies retain weight
• Found in sauerkraut & pickles

• Strengthens gut, helps with cavities and bloating
• Found in cheese

• Occurs naturally in the human stomach and mouth, and vaginal and genito-urinary microbiota
• Found in yogurt & kefir

• Present in our saliva
• May help with the treatment of depression
• Found in kimchi, sourdough, olives, & pao cai

Probiotics work best when paired with a prebiotic—the dietary fiber that feed the friendly bacteria in our guts. Yacon root is an abundant source of fructooligosaccharides, which cannot be fully digested by our GI tract, and so do not raise blood glucose levels, even though yacon adds a slightly sweet flavor profile to Brave Mood.

Lion’s mane contains compounds that stimulate brain cell growth and regenerate nerves including the vagus nerve that runs from our brain to our abdomen, transmitting and receiving information. Lion's mane is a daily adaptogenic mushroom and grows rapidly and sustainably.

Ingredients

Organic hemp seed protein, organic lion’s mane mycelium powder, yacon root powder, inulin, bifidobacterium breve, lactobacillus rhamnosus, lactobacillus acidophilus, lactobacillus plantarum.

How to use
