Flow bites: sweet-tahini-walnut flavor
Your brain's best friend
De Latijnse naam “Hericium Erinaceus” is afgeleid van “Hericenones” en “Erinacines”, 2 inhoudsstoffen van lion's mane. Hericenones stimuleren zenuwgroei (NGF) in je hersenen. Erinacines zijn van de weinige stofjes in de natuur die klein genoeg zijn om door je bloed-hersenbarrière heen te gaan. Hierdoor bevordert Lion's mane "Neurogenesis" – de reparatie en aanmaak van nieuwe hercencellen en -verbindingen.

Cordyceps brengt extra zuurstof naar de (hersen)cellen – en zuurstof als brandstof houdt je scherp en vermindert kans op ziekte. Ook stimuleert het je ATP-productie (de energiebron voor alle lichaamscellen), zo blijf je scherp en raak je minder snel vermoeid.

In lage dosissen ondersteunt guaraná het geheugen en de aandachtspanne. Daarom zit er maar een beetje guaraná in de Flow.

The Flow bites are the best of both worlds: sweet & savory – like they do so well in Middle Eastern cuisine.
These nootropic bites are literally “food for thought.” No racing heartbeat, nervous twitches or big pupils, but "just" a calm focus. So – busy job, intensive study, or are you losing oversight? With the Flow bite you remain sharp while cruising through your day!

The basis of Tahini and Walnuts feeds your brain with healthy omega 3 fats. We mixed these with fibre-rich dates, raw cocoa and grated coconut so that you don't get a sugar dip. With our Flow supplements we transform this functional RAW bar into a real SUPERfood:
+ 1,200 mg Lion's mane (Hericium)
+ 300 mg Cordyceps
+ 150 mg Guaraná

We recommend eating no more than 3 Flow bites per day, and eating them no more than 5/7 days a week.*
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, Lion's mane (Hericium) and Cordyceps have been used safely for thousands of years. In the West, their maximum doses have never been determined, but their recommended daily doses vary between 1–5 grams. Cordyceps has been safely used by healthy* adults in daily doses of 3–6 grams for 1 year.
Although guaraná has on average 2–3 times as much caffeine as coffee (4.7%, varying from harvest to harvest ) our Flow stack contains just 7.05 mg of caffeine – similar to a cup of decaf. Although doses of up to 400 mg per day have been tested safely for healthy adults, caffeine sensitivity is very personal.
*Cordyceps strengthens your immune system. While that's desirable for most people, with autoimmune diseases Cordyceps can make symptoms worse. Don't use in combination with immunosuppresants and anti-clogging drugs.
For the optimal effect, we recommend taking them at different times.* For example:
- A Flow bar in the morning, a Endurance bar in the afternoon and Unwind rawnola as dessert topping.
- A Flow bar during the coffee break and the Unwind bar as an evening snack.
- An Endurance rawnola bowl in the morning and a Flow bar in the afternoon.
*Keep in mind the maximum daily doses.
Best before: 10-04-2023
If you keep the bars cool, dry, and dark (e.g. in a cold cupboard or drawer), there is little about the bar that can go bad. The best before date is for our quality assurance. After this date, use your nose and eyes to determine if the bar is still edible.
