RYZE FAQs
Shiitake Explained
Does Shiitake really support immune health?
Shiitake mushrooms are like wise teachers for your immune system. They’re packed with compounds that can help activate key immune cells without overstimulating your response. This is how Shiitake essentially “teaches” your system to respond more efficiently. It’s all about restoring balance.¹
This immunity gamechanger is also rich in zinc, copper, and selenium, which are known to fortify immune health. When taken consistently, Shiitake boosts your resilience, no matter what comes your way.
How does Shiitake support metabolic health?
RYZE can help curb your sweet tooth, and Shiitake is a big reason why. Certain compounds in Shiitake have been shown to help support healthy cholesterol by regulating how the liver processes fats. They can also help balance blood sugar levels, stabilizing energy crashes and cravings.²
In other words, Shiitake helps your body run more efficiently, from your morning cup to your evening wind-down.
What about overall wellness? How does that work?
Yes! Shiitake mushrooms contain all eight essential amino acids, making them a surprisingly complete source of nourishment. They’re also a good source of B vitamins, which are crucial for energy, mood, and metabolism.³
Their system-soothing properties can also support cardiovascular health, making them a great addition to any routine. Like any mushroom, Shiitake works best over time, gently supporting your body’s systems for the journey ahead.
