Fermented mixture - Aller-Plex supports balanced function and protection of the immune system - 60 caps

Why buy

Fermented Blend - Aller-Plex from Living Nutrition is a special blend of vital reishi mushroom spores, nettle and turmeric, designed to support allergies, hay fever and immune system balance.

These traditional herbs and medicinal mushrooms are rich in important micronutrients, enzymes and complex compounds that work together as a whole. They regulate the histamine reaction and provide relief from seasonal allergies.

Thanks to the unique kefir-combucha fermentation, mushrooms and herbs are transformed into their most alive and active form. This process creates a synergy of bio-available nutrients, enzymes and beneficial microbes to create a living food complex that supports balanced function and protection of the immune system.

The advantages of this mixture in short:

• It regulates the histamine response (the body's immune response to the presence of an allergen or other stimulus that the body considers a threat).
• Support for hay fever and environmental allergies.
• Rich in triterpenes, cucurminoids and other anti-allergenic compounds.

In one dose you will find 620 mg of Aller-Plex herbal complex:

• A blend of bio-active superfoods based on kefir-combucha fermentation.

Why reishi mushroom is added

The addition of high quality bio-active reishi mushroom provides the perfect balance of bio-activated nutrients. The Reishi mushroom (ganoderma or glossy cordgrass) is a symbol of "longevity, beauty and wealth" for its positive effects.

Reishi mushroom or also Chinese Ling Zhi means"divine mushroom of immortality". It has been used in traditional Chinese and Japanese medicine for several millennia.

Reishi is the oldest mushroom used in Chinese medicine. It contains all eight essential amino acids, which are the building blocks of the body's proteins, from which the body builds muscle. Reishi is revered as one of nature's rarest and most useful plants.

Be careful when choosing

When choosing a dietary supplement, it is necessary to choose according to the content of polysaccharides and triterpenoids, if any. In general and simplified terms, polysaccharides stimulate immunity, triterpenes show anti-tumor effect.

Supplements that do not provide a guaranteed standardised polysaccharide content are better excluded from the selection. This is very important, because such products will be useless to you and you will only support unreliable manufacturers who do not care about your health, but only about your money.

You also need to choose capsules/tablets that contain mushroom extract. In fact, the basic dried mushroom mixture is ineffective in the treatment. This is because the cell wall of the fungus is made of chitin.

Humans do not have the enzymes to digest chitin (the enzyme chitanase is needed), and during digestion the chitin coating is unable to break down and the entire contents of the mushroom are expelled by the body. Hot water extraction can break the chitin barrier and make the active ingredients available to the body.

With chitanase, the enzyme for digesting chitin, it's not exactly that people don't have it at all. Some people don't have it at all, some people have it in small amounts, and a certain group of people have it in sufficient amounts.

Chitin levels are genetically determined and depend on where a person is born. In countries where the diet is rich in chitin-containing foods, the ability to produce chitanase has gradually evolved.

From our point of view, the Czech Republic is not one of these countries. And manufacturers who sell powdered base mushroom capsule mixes are just selling a very expensive powder that the vast majority of us will very quickly rule out.

What are adaptogens

Adaptogens are used in situations where stress, a feeling of distress, physical strain, for example, is induced. At that moment, the organism fully adapts (the formation of non-specific resistance), which allows it to physiologically cope with mentally and physically stressful situations, stress, anxiety, increased physical stress, etc.

In short, your body adapts to the situation in no time and solves it in a calm manner. Adaptogenic substances increase the body's resilience in a psychologically demanding period. Our body is stronger and more vital.

Adaptogens are substances that increase the body's resilience during mentally challenging times.

• In general, two types of adaptogens are distinguished, calming and stimulating.
• In addition to holy basil, calming adaptogens include ashwagandha.
• Stimulant adaptogens include stonecrop root, poppy root or ginseng.

Adaptogens also have the ability to act where our body requires it, thus stabilizing all functional systems in the body.

WARNING: according to American dietitian Holly Herington, adaptogens don't work like a cup of coffee, you won't feel their effect immediately. It takes between 6 to 12 weeks for the adaptogens to build up in the body and you will notice a difference.

Why fermented Living Nutrition products

Living Nutrition 's fermentation-activated capsules offer a superior level of active ingredients. Thanks to fermentation, these vital components are activated and the human body is able to absorb them and make the most of their positive effects. Fermented mushrooms retain their holistic synergy while being much more concentrated and bioavailable.

Thanks to the fermentation process, they are also rich in beneficial microbes, enzymes and contain a number of signal molecules specific to the fermentation process.

Each capsule contains an organic blend of mushrooms fermented over an extended period of time using Living Nutrition's signature kefir-kombucha method, then carefully freeze-dried to preserve all of the unique nutrients. The mushrooms are then encapsulated in an organic fermented tapioca capsule, making them truly 100% organic inside and out.

Who is behind the production?

The nutritional supplement is formulated by renowned English nutritional therapist, Graham Botfield, to achieve the right synergy of nutrients in which each food and herb perfectly complement each other.

Only the best organic ingredients are used for freshness and vitality. The fermentation production process (details under the tab titled Fermentation Process) is also designed and controlled by Graham.

The production of each mixture in this product line is supervised individually, as each mixture has different composition, requirements and purpose. All fermented blends are gently freeze-dried to preserve their freshness and capture the highest possible amount of active nutrients.

Founder Graham Botfield is a nutritional therapist and researcher who specialises in the digestive microbiome and the traditional use of herbs. He has worked with respected dietary supplement brands, including New Chapter.

Its founder and master herbalist, Paul Schulick, was a major influence on Graham's approach to developing nature-inspired dietary supplements. Together with another colleague, an expert in microbiology, Graham is constantly developing new fermented products and researching their benefits.

Graham's great passion, besides fermentation, is education. He uses his research at Living Nutrition to lecture on the benefits of fermented plants for modern health conditions. At Living Nutrition, we continue to be inspired by Graham's research to create products that work in harmony with the body's natural ecology.
