About adaptogenic substances.

Water-soluble adaptogens and functional ingredients, what each one is, and exactly how much of it is in every can.

Adaptogens, and what they are doing in the can

These beverages are infused with adaptogens and functional ingredients, are alcohol-free, and are crafted exclusively with natural flavors. They contain no additives or preservatives, providing plant-based support intended to help the body manage daily stress and maintain balance.

Lion's Mane mushroom

A functional mushroom named for its shaggy white fruiting body, used here as a water-soluble extract standardized for beta glucan.

Known for its potential to enhance cognitive function, Lion's Mane helps support memory, focus, and mental clarity. Studies suggest that it may stimulate the production of nerve growth factor (NGF), which is vital for the growth and maintenance of neurons. This could contribute to improved cognitive performance and neuroprotection. Lion's Mane may also promote nerve health, support mood regulation, and reduce mild symptoms of anxiety and depression. Additionally, it may have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that help protect the brain from oxidative stress.

Cordyceps

A cultivated functional mushroom, grown and extracted for the Brightside line and standardized for beta glucan.

Revered for its ability to boost stamina and athletic performance, Cordyceps may increase cellular energy (ATP) production, reduce fatigue, and improve oxygen utilization. Cordyceps is also believed to support cardiovascular health, help regulate blood sugar levels, and possess anti-aging properties. Beyond supporting immune function, some research suggests that Cordyceps can help the body respond to physical stress and may enhance libido by supporting hormone balance and overall vitality.

Ginseng

A cultivated root, standardized as a liquid extract and blended into the Energy Spark can.

Traditionally used to combat fatigue, ginseng can enhance energy, support immune health, and improve brain function. It may also help the body adapt to physical and mental stress.

Ginseng is often studied for its potential effects on libido and sexual function. Research suggests it may have positive effects on libido through several mechanisms:

Improved blood flow
Ginseng contains compounds called ginsenosides that may relax blood vessels and improve circulation. Better blood flow can enhance sexual arousal and performance.
Hormonal modulation
Some studies indicate ginseng may regulate hormones involved in sexual function, including increasing testosterone levels that influence libido in both men and women.
Energy and mood enhancement
Ginseng has adaptogenic properties that help the body manage stress and fatigue. Reduced stress and increased energy can contribute to a healthier sex drive.
Erectile dysfunction support
Clinical trials found ginseng may improve symptoms of erectile dysfunction, which is closely linked to libido.
Conclusion

Ginseng may offer modest improvements in libido and sexual function, especially for people with low energy, stress, or mild erectile issues. However, results vary, and consulting a healthcare provider is recommended before starting any supplement for sexual health.

Reishi mushroom

A woody functional mushroom, extracted and blended into Brightside Calm, standardized for beta glucan.

Often called the "mushroom of immortality," Reishi is valued for its calming effects, stress reduction, and immune system regulation. Reishi contains bioactive compounds, such as triterpenes and polysaccharides, which have been shown to modulate immune responses, support liver health, and provide antioxidant protection. It may help reduce fatigue, promote better sleep quality, and has potential anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties. Reishi is also used to support cardiovascular health and overall longevity.

L-Theanine

An amino acid found naturally in tea leaves, used here in its free water-soluble form.

An amino acid commonly found in tea leaves, L-Theanine is recognized for promoting relaxation without drowsiness. It can reduce stress and anxiety, improve focus, and support restful sleep.
