Many Landish products contain functional ingredients that may help to promote relaxation and, therefore, improve sleep quality, most notably ashwagandha root, reishi mushroom, and marine collagen.
Our products that include these ingredients are:
Wild-Caught Marine Collagen
Turmeric Ginger Latte Mix
5 Mushroom Hot Chocolate Latte Mix
Reishi Chaga Chai Latte Mix
ASHWAGANDHA ROOT
Landish Turmeric Ginger Latte Mix is made with ashwaganda root, which is traditionally known to reduce stress and anxiety. Recent research has shown that this could be due to the root’s ability to lower cortisol levels (1).
REISHI MUSHROOM
Our 5 Mushroom Hot Chocolate and Reishi Chaga Chai Latte Mix may help to improve sleep quality, as reishi is traditionally used to reduce stress and boost well-being (2).
MARINE COLLAGEN
Marine collagen may help to improve sleep quality thanks to its concentration of the amino acid glycine. Glycine acts as a neurotransmitter in the brain, increasing serotonin levels, which is known to promote feelings of calmness and helps to maintain a healthy circadian rhythm: a key factor in obtaining quality sleep (3).
