Men’s health often goes overlooked, yet addressing it is essential for a long, healthy life. Many men delay health check-ups and wellness practices, which can lead to preventable issues becoming serious over time. Conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and mental health concerns are particularly prevalent among men. Proactive self-care, regular health screenings, and adopting a natural wellness routine are key to minimizing risks and achieving lasting wellness.

Wellness Tips and Recommended Supplements

To help men manage their health proactively, we’ve highlighted some of our top natural supplements at New Moon Botanicals that support mental clarity, immune resilience, stress management, and physical endurance:

1. Immune Support with Turkey Tail Mushroom
   Turkey Tail is celebrated for its immunity-boosting effects, thanks to high levels of antioxidants and polysaccharopeptides that activate the body’s immune responses. This mushroom can provide added defense against seasonal illnesses, supporting resilience and cellular health. It’s an excellent addition for those seeking natural support for immune health and longevity.
2. Anti-Inflammatory Power with Turmeric & Fulvic Acid
   Chronic inflammation is a significant health risk, particularly in men with active lifestyles or those at risk of joint pain. Our Turmeric with Fulvic Acid supplement combines powerful anti-inflammatory properties with enhanced nutrient absorption, thanks to fulvic acid. This blend helps alleviate joint pain, supports cardiovascular health, and offers antioxidant protection that benefits overall cellular health.
3. Stress Relief and Energy with Ashwagandha
   Stress and burnout are increasingly common concerns. Ashwagandha, a potent adaptogen, helps balance cortisol levels, promotes relaxation, and provides natural energy without the jitters. Men who incorporate ashwagandha into their routines can experience improved resilience to stress, better sleep, and greater physical endurance.
4. Cognitive Health with Lion’s Mane
   Cognitive well-being is crucial at any age. Lion’s Mane supports memory, focus, and brain function by stimulating nerve growth factor production, which helps preserve mental sharpness. With ongoing use, Lion’s Mane can help improve mental clarity, making it a top supplement for those with demanding schedules.
5. Gut Health with Probiotic Supplement
   Gut health impacts immunity, mental health, and energy levels. Our liquid probiotic provides essential good bacteria to support a balanced gut microbiome, which is critical for digestion, nutrient absorption, and overall immune strength. A healthy gut is the foundation of good health, making probiotics a daily essential.
6. Stamina and Endurance with Cordyceps
   For those with active lifestyles, Cordyceps is ideal. Known for boosting energy by increasing oxygen uptake, Cordyceps can enhance endurance and recovery, making it a favorite for fitness enthusiasts. It supports lung function, stamina, and overall vitality.

CBD offers so many healthful benefits for our pets! We recommend administering CBD oil to pets once a day! Many people start on low dose and gradually increase over a few days.

If a pet parent would rather administer our CBD oil to their pet only as needed, whether it be for stress during travel or occasional joint discomfort, they can absolutely do so.

For best results, we encourage pet parents to administer New Moon Botanicals CBD For Pets daily as a wellness supplement to keep their healthy pets healthy.

First off—no it won’t get you high—but cannabidiol (CBD) is an anti-anxiety oil that comes from the cannabis plant. Medicinal benefits of CBD have been well researched and deemed safe by the World Health Organization. There’s no doubt CBD is a powerful phytochemical with incredible healing potential.
With the legalization of marijuana, cannabis-based products are in the spotlight, and CBD infusions are gaining in popularity, according to Dr. Joshua Zeichner, director of Cosmetic and Clinical Research in the Department of Dermatology at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York.
Here’s why: In addition to its calming properties, CBD has been shown to relieve common skin issues by reducing inflammation and boosting nutrients. Benefits to skin also include powerful antioxidants, improved sleep and anti-inflammatory agents that can help treat conditions such as eczema and psoriasis, as well as reduce acne.
“CBD oil is a great option for all skin types,” Dr. Zeichner says.
As a healing cannabinoid, there are many holistic benefits we can experience from using even a little pure CBD. When added to bath treatments or cooking, it sparks a gentle tetox. You’ll enjoy a healthy glow and fewer breakouts.

The Science of CBD
CBD isn’t dangerous. “It has long been used for its ultra-hydrating and emollient properties,” explains Dr. Zeichner.
Still, properly dosing CBD is something of an art mixed with science. As a general guideline, less is more. For the best beauty benefits, try microdosing (less than 2.5 milligrams) pure oil under your tongue daily, so the CBD stays in your system and nourishes from within.
Other methods of adding CBD into skin care routines include:

● Topical application by combining pure oil into moisturised or intensive repair balm and cream
● Infusing oil into sea-salt soaks
● Blending oil and dried plant materials into soaps
● Adding pure oils, butter or flowers into your diet to maximize the benefits of using CBD in skin care, connect with your local dermatologist or skin care expert.

Easy ways to fuel your food with CBD include:

● Add in fruit smoothies
● Blend in sauces and stews
● Drizzle a little over sprouted-grain crustinis
● Stir in soups and broths
● Drop in your granola and yogurt
● Mix in overnight oats

When sourcing CBD, look for high quality, pure products without added fillers or flavors. If you’re not sure the source of your CBD, reach out to your legal supplier with questions. And remember that organic certifications indicate you’re avoiding any pesticide contamination.
