Posted by Longevity Warehouse on April 28, 2020

A warm latte is like a cozy hug on a crisp morning, and at Longevity Warehouse®, we savor our latte as much as anyone. (Oh, that delicious foam!)

We’re always on the lookout for ways to get more immune-boosting, beauty-enhancing nutrition into our daily diet and so we made it our mission to enhance our daily latte’s nutritional power. We accomplished what we set out to do with the help of the mighty Chaga mushroom and a host of other amazing tonic herbs. We’re certain you’re not only going to love the flavor of this latte, but the way it makes you feel.

Let’s Talk Ingredients

The superstar of this latte is Chaga Mushroom!

1. Wildcrafted Chaga Mushroom Extract

Chaga Mushroom

This may be one of the most important anti-aging and immune-enhancing mushrooms ever discovered due to its high level of polysaccharides, antioxidants, and betulinic acid.

Chaga is a remarkable medicinal mushroom that grows in living trees. It resembles a large piece of burnt charcoal, which is why it’s sometimes referred to as the “tinder mushroom”. Chaga grows abundantly on nearly all species of birch found in the colder forests of the northern hemisphere. In Siberian folklore, chaga is considered to be the “King of the Mushrooms” and has a long history of use in Chinese medicine.

The mycelium of the mushroom provides special compounds and metabolites that function to support longevity, immunity, beauty, and radiant health.*

Chaga Mushroom is supportive to:

Immune system function*
Healthy aging*
Longevity*
Eye and skin health*
Brain function*
Cardiovascular health*
Digestive health*
Liver health*
Energy levels*

2. Coffee

Coffee Beans

Coffee contains high levels of antioxidants called polyphenols, which support decreased oxidative stress in the body. Decreased oxidative stress supports a healthy inflammatory response within the body, which in turn may support a reduced risk of long-term disease and promote healthy aging. The caffeine in coffee benefits the brain by entering it and blocking adenosine while stimulating dopamine and glutamate. This is believed to slow age-related cognitive decline by preventing the buildup of beta-amyloid plaque, which is associated with damaging nerve cells in the brain and progressive neurological decline.

3. Longevity Coffee® Blast
