Your complexion and skin are the first things that get noticed by others. For people suffering from unhealthy skin, it is normal to feel self-conscious and dejected which often leads to depression. Taking care of the skin is as important as taking care of your body, but what is it that makes your skin unhealthy? There are several factors leading to unhealthy skin such as your genes, bad diet, dehydration, harmful radiation from the sun, unhealthy lifestyle that includes excessive smoking and alcohol.

Environmental factors have a significant impact on the health of our skin. External factors such as exposure to harsh weather conditions, air pollution and harmful UV rays can lead to various skin problems. Prolonged sun exposure can accelerate the skin’s ageing process and even lead to the risk of skin cancer. The nicotine in cigarettes is a leading cause of psoriasis that leads to itchy patches of red, scaly skin. Smoking makes your skin lose elasticity and causes early wrinkles. An improper diet consisting of junk foods, devoid of all important nutrients is a leading cause of unhealthy skin. The skin is the biggest organ of the body which needs proper nutrition and care to function at its best and prevent diseases that could also lead to skin cancer. The lack of essential nutrition from a daily diet eventually takes a noticeable toll on a person’s skin.

Skin is like a mirror to what’s happening inside the person’s body. From lack of sleep to Parkinson’s disease, skin, hair and nail conditions can reflect a wide range of ailments in the human body. Eczema causes dry, itchy skin while Seborrhea is the medical name for common dandruff on the scalp. Acne indicates an underlying hormonal abnormality, such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in women. Grey skin reflects an underlying illness in the human body while yellowish-looking skin can be a sign of liver or kidney disease. High cholesterol causes small yellow bumps around the eyes. Even minor rashes indicate a change in the overall health of the human body.

The good news is it can be fixed and the world can be better again for all those suffering from skin issues. Some lifestyle changes can help you achieve clearer and glowing skin by treating your skin right from the outside as well as through a proper diet that helps your body achieve the proper nutrition. At Organic Mushrooms, we have brought together the goodness of medicinal mushrooms which have been known to help achieve better glowing skin for centuries in traditional practices and medicines.

Everyone needs sleep as it is an essential part of what makes our bodies function. However, a large proportion of people around the globe have sleep disorders, the most common among them are insomnia, sleep apnea and narcolepsy. The modern lifestyle is just adding to the problem as insufficient sleep is prevalent across various age groups, considered to be a public health epidemic that is often unrecognized and under-reported. Insomnia is a lifestyle-related issue and has been found prevalent even in young kids. It can begin at any time, from infancy through adolescence and can develop into a long-term problem.

Sleep disorders involve problems with the quality, timing and amount of sleep, which could result in daytime distress and impairment in functioning. Certain medical conditions involving poor mental and physical health are responsible for sleep disorders. It is common for people suffering from mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety or cognitive disorders. Several reasons can cause a disruption in the body’s cycle of sleep including medical conditions such as asthma, heart diseases, genetic factors, side effects of medication, working night shifts thereby challenging the body’s natural routine and excessive use of drugs, caffeine or alcohol among others.

When a person does not get the proper amount and quality of sleep, it can affect the body in more ways than just tiredness and lethargy. A sleep disorder can lead to difficulty in learning and remembering things or making decisions. It can make a person irritable and lower the reaction time, which has been a leading cause of accidents. Sleep disorders can lead to the development of health conditions like depression, diabetes, obesity, heart disease and dementia among others. In some extreme cases, sleep disorders can be life-threatening too.

As per the 2023 WHO estimates, over 3.8% (280 million) of the world’s population suffers from depression irrespective of their culture, age, race or economic status. Depression is a leading cause of disability worldwide and is a major contributor leading to diseases and deaths. An estimated 700,000 people take their lives each year due to depression as it is the fourth leading cause of death between the age group of 15-29 years. Depression is more common among women than among men, especially among pregnant women closer to the delivery of their child.

Depression is way more complex than a chemical imbalance in the brain. There are millions, even billions of chemical reactions going on within your brain and nervous system that affect your mood, perceptions and your outlook on life. Two people with depression will have entirely different reasons for their depression and hence there is no single treatment that works best. Scientists are still working on the biology of depression and trying to identify the communication patterns among cells, the brain reactions and how genetics and lifestyle events affect the development of depression and anxiety.

There is no single root cause for depression and anxiety, it can evolve from varied social, psychological and biological factors. People who have experienced traumatic life events are more likely to develop depression and anxiety towards situations. Physical inactivity, social awkwardness and excessive use of alcohol and drugs lead to poor mental activity and diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, obesity, diabetes, respiratory diseases even Cancer which leads back to depression and anxiety.

A person suffering from depression and anxiety would feel sad, restless, erratic, irritable and empty. There is a general loss of a sense of belonging and a loss of interest in activities. Some other symptoms of depression and anxiety that affect daily life may include poor concentration, restlessness, constant feelings of guilt and low self-worth, hopelessness, erratic sleep, poor metabolism, low energy and suicidal thoughts.

Depression and anxiety are closely related to and affected by physical health. Good physical health is the most important factor in saving people from the clutches of depression and anxiety. With time, the world has developed effective psychological treatments to fight depression and anxiety that include behavioural activation cognitive therapies. Antidepressant medications include selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) which may or may not be the ideal solution for people suffering from depression and anxiety.  Studies reveal that psilocybin therapy helps towards the treatment of depression, anxiety and other mental health disorders. Psilocybin, which is a bioactive compound in mushrooms has also shown effectiveness in easing fear and anxiety in people. Practised in oriental medicine for centuries, scientists agree that some mushroom species offer an abundance of bioactive compounds with miraculous biological properties helpful in brain development and easing stress.

The health of your gastrointestinal (GI) system refers to gut health. A healthy gut facilitates proper digestion, a stable microbiome, an effective immune system and the absence of illness. Your gut health is responsible and linked to aspects of your physical and mental well-being. Poor gut health has been known to be a reason for poor physical health, weight gain, occasional fatigue, aching joints, skin issues, emotional stress and chronic illnesses.

The modern lifestyle has brought up the unhealthy gut as one of the rising health concerns among young and aged alike.

Lately, there has been an increased focus on probiotic supplements to improve the health of your gut health as it is known to provide the important bacteria to boost and restore gut health under certain conditions. For centuries, some medicinal mushrooms have been known to positively improve the microbiome required for a healthy gut. The bioactive compounds in some mushrooms encourage the proliferation of beneficial bacteria while inhibiting the growth of harmful ones creating a balance that is essential for efficient digestion, nutrient absorption and a well-functioning gut.

Studies have shown that adaptogenic mushrooms can help reduce the effects of stress on your body. Adaptogenic mushrooms are not the same as hallucinogenic mushrooms and do not act on the mind or perception, but help enhance your health and wellness. An adaptogen is a substance that helps reduce the adverse effects of stress on the body. Researchers believe that adaptogens increase the body’s resistance to physical, biological, and chemical stress and protect against stress-related damage. A combination of four such mushroom types have been known to positively impact and improve gut health including Reishi, Turkey Tail, Chaga and Lion’s Mane. Reishi mushroom offers a calming effect as it alleviates digestive troubles linked to excess stress and stomach acid secretion. Another medicinal mushroom Turkey Tail contains prebiotics which may help support the digestive process, making this supplement a good choice for those with digestive issues.

Beta-glucans are a recent discovery of modern science. Beta-glucans are a group of polysaccharides found as an active component in mushrooms and cereals with multiple health benefits. The benefits of these soluble fibers for human bodies are vast and scientists are continually expanding on this knowledge.

There are studies showcasing the scope of Beta-glucans as they lower the risk of heart disease by absorbing cholesterol from food. They have also been known to restore and strengthen the human immune system by preventing infections. Products with at least 750mg of Beta-Glucans are allowed to claim that they might reduce heart disease risk by the US FDA.

Benefits of Beta-D-Glucans in Organic Mushrooms

Multiple fungi such as Reishi, Shiitake and Turkey Tail are rich in Beta-glucans and have a multitude of potential health benefits, from supporting immune health to fighting infections that lead to tumors and cancer. Many functional organic mushrooms are rich in Beta-glucans and bioactive ingredients, especially Beta-glucans, which are an important biological response modifier and help you get better and healthy.

Mushrooms have been used for medicinal purposes for centuries and are generally recognized as functional foods. This is because their bioactive compounds have proven to be immensely helpful in enhancing the human mind and body. Most Beta-glucans are derived straight from the fruiting bodies of mushrooms. Generally, Beta-Glucans are found in cereals, yeasts, some bacteria and seaweed other than mushrooms. However, the Beta-glucans derived from mushrooms are quite different from those other sources and have shown success in defending the human body against tumors by strengthening the immune system. For example, the fruiting body of Shiitake Mushrooms consists of Beta-glucans that have shown effectiveness in fighting tumor cells and enhancing the immune system in the human body.

The extraction of Beta-glucans from fruiting bodies of mushrooms is a complicated process and requires attention to detail. At Organic Mushrooms, we use our patented double and triple extraction processes to separate the bioactive components from the fruiting bodies. 100% of the goodness of mushrooms including all of the important bioactive compounds are extracted from fruiting bodies before converting the extracts into tinctures, extract powder, capsules, gummies and other forms of health supplements.

Beta-glucans specifically have a multitude of benefits as they strengthen the immune system, combat tumors and cancerous cells, help in maintaining blood sugar levels, regulate cholesterol in the body, fight inflammation, reduce cardiovascular issues and promote heart health. The beta-glucan in mushrooms have proven helpful in improving overall gut health by acting as a prebiotic, affecting the growth of bacteria and balancing intestinal health. It proves to be anti-inflammatory for those with irritable bowel disease.

Beta-glucans have the potential to improve immunity in humans by stimulating the production of macrophages that help combat pathogens and foreign cells in your body. Being a soluble fibre, beta-glucans dissolve in water to slow the transit of food in the intestine and the digestion of carbohydrates, helping you feel satisfied for a longer period while reducing blood sugar absorption.

Let us look at some of the health benefits of Beta-glucans in detail.

• Strengthening the Immune System

Beta-glucan polysaccharides can regulate and enhance the immune response. Beta-D-glucan can activate various immune cells such as macrophages, natural killer cells and neutrophils. Beta-glucans help the body in defending against infections and diseases more effectively by stimulating these essential components of the immune system. Studies reveal that beta-D-glucans can increase the production of cytokines, signaling molecules that aid in cell communication during immune responses. Additionally, they can boost the production of antibodies, providing further support to the body’s defence mechanisms.

• Cardiovascular Health

Regular use of Beta-glucans in the daily diet has been associated with several cardiovascular benefits. Beta-glucans help in the reduction of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels, commonly referred to as “bad” cholesterol. With the lowering of LDL cholesterol, beta-D-glucans help prevent the formation of arterial plaques and drastically reduce the risk of atherosclerosis and related cardiovascular issues.

There has been evidence that Beta-glucans have been effective in controlling blood pressure, contributing to better overall heart health. Their ability to promote healthy blood flow and reduce inflammation further aids in maintaining a healthy cardiovascular function.

• Blood Sugar Management

With the current hyper-active lifestyle and deficiency of essential nutrition in regular diet, Diabetes has become a common ailment in today’s society. Diabetes and insulin resistance are becoming increasingly prevalent health concerns. Beta-D-glucans have the potential to offer support in managing blood sugar levels, especially for individuals with type 2 diabetes. When regularly consumed in the form of health supplements, these fibres form a gel-like substance in the digestive tract, which slows down the absorption of glucose. This slower absorption leads to manageable blood sugar levels, reducing the likelihood of dangerous spikes and crashes.

• Better Gut Health

Beta-glucans have proved to be effective in managing and maintaining a healthy gut. Your gut microbiome plays a fundamental role in your overall health, affecting digestion, and nutrient absorption while affecting your physical and mental well-being. Beta-glucans act as prebiotics, providing useful bacteria to your gut. As these fibres pass through the digestive system, they reach the colon intact, where they serve as a food source for beneficial microbes. A balanced gut microbiome contributes to a stronger immune system, improved digestion and better mental health.

• Respite from inflammation

The modern lifestyle exposes us to various environmental stressors, leading to oxidative damage and chronic inflammation. Beta-glucans exhibit antioxidant properties, neutralizing harmful free radicals and reducing oxidative stress. Additionally, they possess anti-inflammatory effects, which help mitigate inflammation, a common underlying factor in various chronic diseases.

In conclusion, incorporating Beta-glucans into your daily diet is a form of preventive healthcare against several illnesses and life-threatening diseases. It is time to embrace the benefits of this powerful beta-glucan by incorporating them as a part of your diet through Organic Mushrooms health supplements.

What are tinctures?

Tinctures are concentrated herbal extracts made by soaking plant parts in alcohol or vinegar and extracting the active ingredients. Tinctures from Organic Mushrooms are a convenient way to deliver essential nutrients from mushrooms to the body and are prescribed for various issues, including relief from stress and anxiety, pain, lethargy and insomnia. Regular use is believed to help prevent major diseases as well.

How are tinctures made?

The process of making Organic Mushrooms tinctures starts with gathering useful parts of natural mushrooms. Unwanted parts are then removed and the useful matter is washed and coarsely chopped to be put into an airtight jar. The jar is filled with hot water and organic cane alcohol for a specific period depending on the specific mushroom type and its benefits. The active components of the mushrooms are extracted during the soaking process. We normally use glacier hot water and organic cane alcohol as the preferred liquid to extract the active components that are not water-soluble.

What do tinctures taste like?

When consuming an Organic Mushrooms tincture, only a small amount of alcohol is typically ingested. This method is considered to be safe and effective in delivering the benefits of mushrooms. Now, tinctures may not taste great to a lot of people and would taste like alcohol. Hence, it is recommended to mix the suggested dosage with juice or hot water mixed with honey among other drink choices.

Why are tinctures good?

It is important to know that our bodies effectively utilize about 98% of herbal extracts and tinctures, but only around 50% of capsules and tablets. This is because tinctures contain a higher concentration of mushrooms in a smaller dose, making them more potent. When it comes to fulfilling nutrition gaps, there is evidence that tinctures can be stronger than edibles in certain circumstances. It is worth noting that tinctures deliver the effects of mushrooms faster than edibles, but the degree of difference depends on the method of consumption. Direct intake through the dropper under the tongue is the quickest way to absorb the nutrients, however not recommended due to its alcohol-like taste.

The best way to consume tinctures:

Many people mask the strong taste of tinctures by adding them to drinks or meals. You too can enjoy the benefits of Organic Mushrooms tinctures without experiencing the strong taste. To make the taste more palatable, it is recommended to mix the tinctures in fresh juices, smoothies or tea, while foods such as yogurt and pudding also mix well with tinctures. It is important to note that the effects of tinctures consumed in this way can take as long as edibles to be felt. If you prefer, you can add tinctures to orange juice, pineapple juice, or mixed juices as they have the required citrus content and are ideal for mixing with tinctures. Additionally, you can even add tinctures to herbal teas and vegetable smoothies!

While your diet provides essential macronutrients: carbohydrates, fat, protein and fibre (non-starch polysaccharides), it is the essential nutrients that are missing. Vitamins and minerals are essential nutrients that your body needs in small amounts to work properly. As we age, the ability of our body to extract and absorb essential vitamins and minerals decreases. Especially in today’s day and age of poor eating habits, we rarely get to follow a balanced diet, leaving our bodies devoid of essential nutrients which ultimately leads to ailments and further diseases. We need to provide the essential nutrients to our body to keep it healthy and fit.

Supplements are not just for old people, they are for everyone trying to follow a balanced diet. Proper nutrition is as important for kids and young adults as it is for seniors and people with ailments.

Staying stress-free and happy has a role to play as well, but it is primarily the food we consume that has a long-lasting effect on the human body and its aging. Foods grown in a natural environment using natural fertilizers without the use of chemical pesticides are organic foods. Organic foods are produced through farming practices that only use natural substances. This means avoiding all artificial chemicals, hormones, antibiotics and genetically modified organisms.

In recent years, the demand for organic foods has been on the rise, with health-conscious consumers seeking healthier and more sustainable alternatives to conventionally produced items. Among these options, organic mushrooms have gained significant popularity due to their unique nutritional profile, environmental benefits, and delicious taste. In this article, we’ll delve into five compelling reasons why opting for real organic mushrooms is a wholesome choice for both your health and the planet.

1. Nutritional Superiority

Organic mushrooms offer a nutritional boost compared to their conventionally grown counterparts. These nutrient-rich fungi are a great source of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, making them a valuable addition to your diet. Notably, mushrooms are a rare non-animal source of vitamin D, an essential nutrient that supports bone health, immune function, and overall well-being. Organic farming practices emphasize product health, which in turn enhances the nutrient content of the mushrooms, resulting in a more nutritious end product.

2. Chemical-Free Goodness

One of the primary benefits of choosing organic mushrooms is the reduction of exposure to harmful chemicals. Conventional mushroom farming often involves the use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides to control pests and diseases. These chemicals can leave residues on the mushrooms that we consume, posing potential health risks. On the other hand, organic mushroom cultivation relies on natural methods and non-toxic substances, ensuring that the final product is free from harmful chemicals.

3. Environmental Sustainability

Opting for organic mushrooms aligns with eco-conscious consumers’ values, as organic farming practices are designed to minimize harm to the environment. Organic mushroom farms prioritize sustainable methods such as crop rotation, composting, and natural pest control. These practices reduce soil degradation, conserve water resources, and promote biodiversity. By choosing organic mushrooms, you’re contributing to the preservation of ecosystems and supporting farming practices that have a lower carbon footprint.

4. Enhanced Flavor and Texture

Beyond their health and environmental benefits, organic mushrooms also stand out for their superior flavor and texture. The careful cultivation and minimal intervention in organic farming allow the mushrooms to develop their natural taste, aroma, and texture. Whether you’re sautéing them for a rich umami flavor or adding them to hearty soups, organic mushrooms provide a more authentic and satisfying culinary experience.

5. Supporting Ethical Farming Practices

When you choose organic mushrooms, you’re supporting ethical and responsible farming practices. Organic farming emphasizes animal welfare, fair labor conditions, and sustainable resource management. By investing in organic products, you’re contributing to a food system that respects both human and animal well-being, fostering a healthier and more equitable agricultural industry.

The decision to buy organic mushrooms transcends mere food choices—it’s a conscious step towards a healthier lifestyle and a more sustainable future. From the enhanced nutritional content and chemical-free nature to the positive impact on the environment and ethical farming practices, organic mushrooms offer a plethora of reasons to make them a staple in your diet.
