Tonika are an Australian made and owned, selling all-natural and adaptogenic blends of protein powders and coffee creamers. Each blend contains multiple amazing Medicinal Mushrooms, Tonic Herbs and Adaptogens, which are know across the world to have amazing healing, calming or energising properties. I was lucky enough to be sent the Cacao & Maca Coffee Creamer, which is a vegan, gluten and sugar-free, keto friendly Adaptogenic Creamy Blend of Rich Cacao, Medicinal Mushrooms & Tonic Herbs. It has a creamy Chocolate Flavour and is sweetened with Monk Fruit. Read on to discover the natural healing properties of each ingredient of this blend explained by the founder of Tonika, to read my review of this product and maybe get a sneaky discount code at the end.
HE SHOU WU (Fo-Ti)

MCT OIL POWDER MCT's are fast-acting fatty acids, which the liver converts into clean energy that is immediately available to the body and brain.
We're talking about good, healthy fats that improve brain and memory function, boost energy and increase endurance. MCT's also assist with weight loss by improving metabolic function and reducing body fat storage.
Made from 100% coconuts, and consists of caprylic (C8) and capric (C10). Our coffee creamer contains our 5g MCTs per serve.

Not technically a mushroom...but a fungus.
It's high in antioxidants and protects against inflammation by inhibiting inflammatory compounds. Chaga also fights viral and bacterial infections, improves immune response and aids in lowering blood sugar.
ASHWAGANDA This adaptogen known in Ayurvedic medicine as the “PRINCE OF HERBS”!
Ashwagandha is an adaptogen with many benefits, it has been used for Medicinal purposes for over 3000 years in Chinese medicine to relieve stress and enhance mood, increase energy levels, and support mental focus and clarity.
Consuming this herb on a regular basis will drastically change your skin's appearance, make it more youthful, glowing, and improve its quality. The herb also works on reducing wrinkles and makes the skin firmer.
Ashwagandha helps the body manage its cortisol release timing. The amphoteric herb regulates vital physiological processes, including rapidly returning rising levels of the stress hormone back to normal.
Fun fact: this herb is rich in iron and it also contributes to red blood cell count.
REISHI
Known as the mushroom of immortality and commonly known as Nature's Xanax. You can think of Reishi as meditation in a cup. Although strong, pungent and bitter, Reishi mushrooms are an absolute powerhouse of health benefits. Reishi is a popular tonic herb known for its calmness and ability to help us de-stress. It is perfect for relaxation, promoting deep sleep, improving immune function and promoting cognitive health. Tip: If you’re looking for a natural sinus relief, Reishi is your new best friend!
MY REVIEW
This product is not just a coffee creamer. Just like a protein powder, you can add this into your smoothies and baking for all of the amazing benefits and flavour. I love to add a teaspoon into my coffees in the morning, which subtly sweetens and adds a delicious, creamy texture and flavour. This blend is formulated with fine adaptogens known to help manage stress, calm the mind, boost the immune system and promote healthy glowing skin. You can also add this into a hot chocolate before bed, it is so versatile! I didn't know Vegan Coffee Creamer Powder existed until I tried this, and I will never go back to having plain drinks or beverages with no medicinal or nutritional benefits again.
