Cordyceps is an edible mushroom that when consumed has been shown to have a host of health and performance benefits. Studies have demonstrated its ability to promote oxygen uptake, energy and endurance as well as support immunity focus and blood sugar regulation. This is a 10:1 concentrated extract, which means we use 10g of raw Cordyceps to make 1g of powder. All our mushroom powder extracts are naturally wild-crafted on lugs, dual extracted and concentrated for maximum levels of beneficial compounds with no heavy metals or toxins.  NATURALLY WILD-CRAFTED ON LOGS Grown as they should be; in nature with fresh air and sunlight 25.6% BETA-GLUCANS We have our finished products batch tested to ensure they contain no heavy metals or toxins and have high levels of immune-enhancing beta-glucans DUAL-EXTRACTED We carefully source and extract our Cordyceps to ensure high levels of the beneficial compounds within these mushrooms are maintained 10:1 CONCENTRATED EXTRACT Each gram of our Cordyceps mushroom powder is made with 10 grams of naturally wild-crafted Cordyceps mushroom for potency ABOUT THE PRODUCT Organic Cordyceps Our Cordyceps are made from 100% fruiting bodies, certified organic and wild-crafted with natural lighting and fresh air. We then use a dual-extraction and vacuum drying process to turn the mushrooms into an 10:1 concentrated extract powder.  On completion of this process, we have our finished product lab analysed to demonstrate how our method maintains a really high level of the beneficial beta-glucans present in these mushrooms. Our latest batch contains 25.6%.  Our Cordyceps are packaged in Miron Glass jars to provide complete protection from UV rays which can degrade the quality of the product.  This product DOES NOT contain mycelium, starch, pesticides, toxins or fillers of any kind. It's also wild-crafted and therefore not lab-grown with the use of rice or oats.  HOW TO USE Take 1-2 grams per day, mixed into food or drinks. WHEN TO USE Can be taken at any point throughout the day. Personally we like to add a gram to our morning coffee and then another to our pre-workout drinks.  FAQS DO YOU LAB TEST YOUR FINISHED PRODUCTS? Of course - every batch is tested for heavy metals and beta-glucan percentage. Beta-glucans are the compounds within Cordyceps, which give it its immune enhancing properties. HOW LONG WILL MY TUB LAST? This all depends on dosage. However, if you take 1-2 grams per day, the tub will last 20-40 days.

MCT Oil is a real food derived, rapid source of energy. Unlike other fat sources, it doesn’t need to be broken down on consumption, so is either used as an instant source of ATP energy or turned into ketones. Also C8 and C10 MCTs have been shown to have great antimicrobial properties, which means they help combat gut issues like Candida. Our MCT Oil comes in a 473ml glass bottle, is 100% derived from sustainably sourced organic coconuts and absolutely free of palm oil. ORGANIC 100% derived from sustainably sourced organic coconuts NO PALM OIL We use absolutely no palm oil in the making of this product BRAIN POWER MCT Oil is quickly turned in to ketones, which can easily cross the blood brain barrier aiding cognition BPA FREE Our MCT comes in a BPA free glass bottle ABOUT THE PRODUCT Organic MCT Oil Our MCT Oil is 100% derived from sustainably sourced organic coconuts and contains 60% C8 (Caprylic Acid) and 40% C10 (Capric Acid) Medium Chain Triglycerides. We use absolutely no palm oil in the making of this product. MCT Oil is odourless and flavourless, making it a great for addition to coffee, tea, smoothies, shakes or salads. MCT Oil is one of the key ingredients in Bulletproof coffee. The reason for its inclusion is that when added to coffee the fat slows down caffeine absorption, negating the spike and crash or jitters people often feel and instead providing several hours of steadily released energy. Also C8 and C10 MCTs have been shown to have great antimicrobial properties, which means they help combat gut issues like Candida. Our MCT comes in a BPA free glass bottle to align with our environmental and social responsibility. HOW TO USE Start by using 10ml per ay and steadily increase intake as required. Due to how quickly MCT oil is metabolised it can cause gastric upset if consumed in higher amounts than your body can handle. Therefore it is advisable to increase your intake slowly as tolerance builds. WHEN TO USE Being the key ingredients in Bulletproof Coffee, MCT Oil is most often added to coffee or tea to slow down the caffeine absorption and create a time released energy effect. However, it’s also great to cook with or as an addition to salads for that extra energy boost. Remember to keep temperatures below 160 degrees celsius when cooking to ensure the oil doesn’t saturate. FAQS WHY ORGANIC MCT OIL? Organic food is produced without the use of chemical fertilisers, pesticides or any other artificial chemicals. A number of studies have shown that exposure to these chemicals in high doses, or low does over a long period can have serious detrimental impacts on human health. Find out more here. When consuming any of our products, there’s no danger of you ingesting any of these damaging substances because they are all certified organic by the Soil Association, the UK’s premium organic certification body. CAN I COOK USING MCT OIL? Yes, MCT Oil can be used for cooking. However, aim to keep the cooking temperature below 320 Fahrenheit / 160 Celsius to ensure all the health benefits are maintained. IS MCT OIL MADE FROM COCONUT OR PALM OIL? Our MCT Oil is 100% derived from sustainably sourced organic coconuts and contains absolutely no palm oil. We made this decision for environmental reasons as the rising demand for palm oil is having a devastating impact on the environment. DOES MCT OIL HELP YOU GET IN TO KETOSIS FASTER? Ketosis is a metabolic state in which your body uses primarily fat and ketones for fuel as opposed to carbohydrates. In practical terms, if your blood ketones levels are above 0.5mmol then you can consider yourself in ketosis. MCT Oil is rapidly converted by the body to be used as an instant source of energy or converted in to ketones. Therefore definitely can help you achieve ketosis at a faster rate. However, there’s much more to following a ketogenic diet than just consuming MCT Oil. If you want to find out more, our Keto Transition Guide is a great place to start. HOW MUCH MCT OIL SHOULD I USE? Consuming too much MCT Oil too quickly can cause gastric upset. Therefore we recommend starting out with 5ml per serving and slowly increasing your intake as tolerance builds. WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF MCT OIL? Brain Power - MCT Oil is quickly turned in to ketones, which can easily cross the blood brain barrier aiding cognition. Increased Energy - Cultivating the fat burning state of ketosis creates a noticeable impact on energy levels. Instead of the post lunch energy crash a lot of people have grown accustomed to, expect energy to build throughout the day. Less Cravings - No more snacking will be required to top up carbohydrate levels. WILL MCT OIL BREAK MY FAST? It depends. If you’re fasting for weight loss then MCT Oil can be great tool to help curb cravings to your first meal. However, as MCT Oil contains calories it will technically break your fast and mitigate some of the weight loss and autopaghy benefits. IS MCT OIL GOOD FOR BRAIN HEALTH? MCT Oil is quickly turned in to ketones which can cross the blood-brain barrier to be used as fuel for your brain. People in ketosis often report high levels of focus and energy. WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN C8 & C10 MCTS? C8 MCTs convert to ketones at a slightly quicker rate than C10 MCTs. However, due to how quickly C8 MCT Oil converts, some people find that taking it in isolation can cause gastric upset. Also, C8 and C10 MCTs have a slightly different micronutrient profile. Therefore we opted for a combination of both to ensure a wider variety of micronutrients and no gastric discomfort when consuming our product.

Made with grass-fed and finished bovine bones from a regenerative farm, this product may provide support for optimal bone mineral composition and overall bone strength. Our complex contains all the natural elements of healthy bone including the essential minerals calcium and phosphorous (in their ideal ratio of 2:1), growth factors, type I collagen, glycosaminoglycans and a broad range of other trace elements.   *We’ve updated this product so there’s more bone matrix per capsule, meaning the serving size is now only 1-2 per day. The overall product weight remains the same and therefore you're still getting 90 grams of powder total, it's just a different serving size for ease. Whether you require 1 or 2 capsules depends on your calcium / dairy consumption (please see diagram in image gallery for detailed dosage guidelines).    Whole Bone Matrix Eating whole animals, nose-to-tail, was a way of life for humans for the majority of our existence up until recent history. They believed that consuming a specific part of a healthy animal would strengthen and enhance the health of that part of their own body. For example, if someone had broken a bone or was experiencing issues with their connective tissue such as tendons, ligaments or cartilage, they would eat bone broths and be encouraged to consume the connective tissue and marrow. This specific bone matrix has validated their intuition in animal models, with clinical trials showing improvements in bone mineral density following six months consumption. This is because when the bones and connective tissue of a healthy animal are consumed, the unique growth factors and minerals like calcium and phosphorus within them, which are key for bone strength, travel to the bones of the consumer. In term, this boosts bone and connection tissue health. Indigenous people also appreciated that animals gave their lives to ensure us as humans could survive and thrive so they left nothing go to waste. And because of their deep connection with the earth and their own bodies they intuitively knew just how beneficial consuming certain parts of the animal, such as bones and organ meat was for their own health. Fast forward to today and the immense powers of these more unique parts of the animal have somewhat been forgotten. What was once highly sought after is now rarely consumed and generally people no longer enjoy the taste. We created our nose-to-tail line to help people reintroduce these ancestral superfoods, loaded with nutrients in an easy to consume and flavourless way.  How to use Just one of our Whole Bone Matrix capsules contain roughly 50% of the daily requirement for Calcium and Phosphorous. To get enough of these two key minerals for bone health through diet, the general recommendation is consume 3 portions of dairy per day.  Depending on how much dairy you eat, this is what we recommend for Whole Bone Matrix: a) If you have 0 portions, take 2 caps = £1.17 per day // tub lasts 30 days b) If you have 1-2 portions, take 1 cap = 0.58p per day // tub lasts 60 days    When to use Take 1-2 capsules at any point throughout the day. Each jar contains 60 capsules (30-60 day supply). Ingredients: Grass-Fed Bovine Bone, Gelatine (Capsule).
