Some mushrooms will get you high as a kite. Some could kill you. Let's get that out of the way. Because it's important to know that so many other mushrooms out there are totally functional and can heal you. Don't believe us? Ask two thousand-year-old ancient healers - you can't. They're long gone. But the history and powerful evidence remain true: Functional mushrooms like the ones found in Hear Me Roar are not psychedelic and have potent power that should be integrated into anyone's wellness plan.
Whether physical, chemical or biological, adaptogens can work to resist stressors. Centuries of ancient Chinese medicine and tribal discoveries of what each plant or mushroom can do - all that work and risk, all that blood sweat and tears to document on parchment paper with quill pens by candlelight - all culminate into one powerful Zac Efron documentary on Netflix. Just kidding, that was helpful, Zac. You're perfect.
In this Hear Me Roar moment, we're discussing the myths, benefits, and popular uses of adaptogens in culture right now. You've seen so many peak athletes talk about the benefits and how they mix it into their coffee and make it 'super' or mix it into water and just benefit from the stand-alone potency of adaptogens.
One thing we want to remind you of is this: Adaptogens are not miracle plants. Like anything, just ripping into Hear Me Roar for the adaptogenic benefits won't suddenly give you boosters. A consistent diet of super whole foods over an extended period of time will be the best way to increase and sustain your power in most activities.
Adaptogens (like Hear Me Roar) only work if you do. Here's another one: Your mind is like a parachute; it only works when you open it.
One more: Smooth seas never made a skilled sailor.
We have tons of these.
First, the term "adaptogen" is basically what describes a natural product like herb or plant-based product like a mushroom.

Adaptogenic mushrooms are mushrooms that A. fit the criteria you see above and B. no that's it. Just A.
