Adaptogens. Let's start here. What are they? Adaptogens are herbs and mushrooms that help your body cope with external stressors, toning your body and keeping it balanced (normalizing your adrenal response) when under stress. They improve your body’s adaptability and they do what your particular body needs them to do.

One serving of Matcha Bliss has 1000mg of reishi mushroom and 1000mg of maca root, both adaptogens great for mood and stress support. Plus, it has mood-boosting cacao and energizing matcha.
