In today's episode, we explore the role of Thymosin Alpha 1 Peptide in modulating the immune system, specifically its effects on Th1 and Th2 responses. The episode further delves into the mechanisms by which Borrelia burgdorferi evades immune detection and offers strategies to enhance immune effectiveness against this stealthy pathogen. Additionally, we discuss the broader implications of immune modulation in chronic Lyme disease and mold exposures.

We are talking all things superfoods today with a focus on enhancing sleep quality and supporting sustained energy levels.

Andrew and Allan are the Co-Founders of NoonBrew which is the first superfood tea designed for the afternoon slump. They wanted an alternative to coffee that didn’t keep you up at night and saw that no other beverage company was truly addressing the afternoon energy market. In 2021, they decided to make it themselves. Using Allan’s background in herbal medicine, they blended 19 superfoods for clean energy, calm focus, and digestion support.

After selling to thousands of customers across the U.S., their team realized the importance of improved energy starting the night before with sleep. A year after formulating NoonBrew, they created the strongest magnesium sleep tea without melatonin, MoonBrew. In 2024, they are going all in on sleep with MoonBrew to continue helping people fall asleep, stay asleep, and wake up refreshed without the morning grogginess.

Topics:

1. Introduction to MoonBrew

- Evolution from NoonBrew to MoonBrew

- Personal stories and motivation

2. Superfoods and Adaptogens Using TCM

- Ashwagandha, Maca, L-Theanine

- Ginger, Turmeric, Ginseng

- Mushroom blend: Chaga, Cordyceps, Reishi, Lion’s Mane

3. Ingredients in MoonBrew (and MoonBoost) and Their Data-Driven Sleep Benefits

- Magnesium glycinate and Magnesium L-threonate (why?)

- Herbs and their effects on neurotransmitters

- Absence of melatonin

- GABA

- Glycine

- Data and metrics: sleep trackers

4. Why Traditional Chinese Medicine?
