When it comes to wellness, I truly believe that there is no one-size-fits-all approach. Thankfully, the wellness market is catching on that personalisation is the way forward when it comes to optimising our health needs. Supplements are the epitome of this – I often find that what might work for one person does not always work for another. However, there are a few brands and products out there that seem to defy this in that they are so effective that nearly everyone who tries them swears by them to such a degree that they end up recommending them to all their friends, family and even social media following. One such brand is Hifas da Terra.
Founded by world-class researchers and scientists who specialise in producing superior-quality organic medicinal mushroom supplements, Hifas da Terra is one of the most highly recommended out there. And not just by its customers; numerous high-profile medical doctors, holistic therapists, naturopaths and nutritionists from all around the globe also use and recommend their range of supplements to stay well and boost vitality.
For 25 years, Hifas da Terra has been a leader in the field of Mycotherapy, harnessing the power of medicinal mushrooms to promote harmony and health. Earlier this year, I was lucky enough to be a guest at their London launch to learn about and try its newest women’s beauty and wellness supplement, OPTIMUM. After three months, the results are pretty astonishing.
The Results: Three Months of OPTIMUM – Goodbye afternoon slumps and hello calm
One of my biggest issues as I approach the big 4-0 has been energy. I often feel really lethargic first thing in the morning, when in my 20s I would consistently leap out of bed to go for a run at 6am, now I find it hard to get up to get the kids to school on time! I told myself that the exhaustion was probably due to having very energetic, young boys and that there was little I could do about it. But I was wrong. Within one month of taking Optimum I found getting out of bed so much easier and totally avoided the normal 4pm slump I was used to. This, I am told, is due to the Cordyceps extract, combined with spirulina and chlorella as Cordyceps are thought to increase the body’s production of the molecule adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is essential for delivering energy to the muscles. By the third month, not only was I still feeling much more energetic (I ran my best ever half marathon times – beating the times I did it in my 20s and early 30s), but as the formula also contains Reishi, Lion’s Mane and Saffron, I also felt much calmer (aka less shouting at the kids!) and my immune system was tip top (I am scared to write this for fear of tempting faint but I haven’t had a single cold or illness since taking Optimum). In the words of KT Tunstall “Suddenly I see” just why Hifas de Terra supplements are backed by so many experts – as their clients are seeing and feeling real results.
Backed by Science
One of the hallmarks of Hifas da Terra’s products is their commitment to scientific validation. Optimum is no exception. The supplement has undergone rigorous testing to ensure its efficacy, with clinical trials showing promising results in improving energy levels, cognitive function, and stress resilience. The company’s dedication to research, combined with its use of high-quality organic ingredients, ensures that Optimum is not only effective but also safe for long-term use. Optimum is formulated with a blend of bioactive compounds, including antioxidants and beta-glucans, to enhance the body’s natural defenses and promote overall well-being. The supplement works holistically to balance energy, enhance cognitive function, and fortify the immune system, making it the perfect antidote to a busy, working mother of two like me who currently has zero time to get ill or take daytime naps!
Not All Mushroom Supplements Are Created Equal – What’s the Difference?
Located in a dense tranquil forest in the Atlantic region of northern Spain, Hifas da Terra don’t only grow their own organic mushrooms on their land, but they are all hand-picked and sun-dried to maintain optimum nutritional value, keeping vitamins, proteins, and enzymes intact. As adaptogens, these miraculous fungi help the body to harmonise itself and provide an array of essential nutrients, some of which you can only get from mushrooms. Beyond the health benefits of their products, Hifas da Terra is also committed to environmental sustainability and social responsibility. The company employs eco-friendly farming practices, ensuring that their mushrooms are grown without the use of harmful pesticides or chemicals. Plus, there is a strong emphasis on corporate social responsibility. They collaborate with various non-profit organisations and contribute to health-related causes, particularly in the area of cancer research, where medicinal mushrooms have shown promise in supportive care during treatment.
Whether you’re looking to boost your energy, sharpen your focus, or build resilience against stress, Optimum offers a holistic solution that addresses the needs of modern life.
