How does alice work?Updated 7 months ago

alice works by combining the incredible power of functional mushrooms with potent nootropics and adaptogens — all into a decadent bite of chocolate. 

The functional mushrooms work over time, not instantly. When enjoyed daily for 2-3 months, the nutrients compound in your body and begin to make subtle yet powerful changes.  Each mushroom is selected for its unique role in supporting the body and mind:

Lion’s Mane (Brainstorm) contains naturally occurring compounds that are small enough to cross the blood–brain barrier and are associated with supporting Nerve Growth Factor (NGF), which plays a role in memory, cognition, neuroplasticity, and overall brain health.

Reishi (Nightcap + Zen-X) is rich in triterpenes traditionally associated with supporting the parasympathetic nervous system, helping promote relaxation, stress balance, and restful sleep.

Cordyceps (Party Trick, Happy Ending + Brainstorm) has a long history of use for supporting energy and endurance and contains adenosine-related compounds associated with oxygen utilization, mental stamina, and nervous system support.

Tremella (Zen-x) provides gentle adaptogenic support while nourishing the body at a cellular level.

To complement these long-term benefits—and because we appreciate a little instant gratification—we also formulated our chocolates with fast-acting nootropics and herbal ingredients designed to be felt more immediately, often within ~45 minutes of enjoying a piece.

The result is an indulgent daily ritual that’s good for you and only gets better with time!
