Do those mushroom things really work???
Question of the day!

I used to wonder the same thing! But let me tell you, these aren’t just any mushrooms. Rise has a blend of 7 functional mushrooms that have been used for centuries for focus, energy, immune support, and brain clarity. It’s not magic — it’s science + nature working together to support how your body already wants to feel. I started taking it and within minutes I noticed a shift in energy that wasn’t jittery. Just smooth, focused, and more 'me.

👉 Mushrooms aren’t stimulants — they’re adaptogens.

That means they don’t force your body to do anything.
They support how your body already knows how to function, especially under stress.

Here’s the science-friendly breakdown you can share:

Functional mushrooms (like Lion’s Mane, Cordyceps, Reishi, Chaga) have been studied for their impact on:

Mitochondrial energy production
Immune signaling
Stress response (HPA axis)
Inflammation modulation
They work upstream, at the cellular communication level — not like caffeine or sugar.

That’s why people often say:
“I didn’t feel a jolt… I just felt more steady.”
“My brain feels clearer.”
“I’m not crashing anymore.”
Consistency matters more than instant sensation.

💡 What’s in Rise?

According to the Frequense Product Knowledge Base, Rise contains a blend of:
Cordyceps, Reishi, King Trumpet, Shiitake, Lion’s Mane, Turkey Tail, and Chaga.
Plus a nootropic blend for brain health, clarity, and mood. It’s paired with B vitamins and 100mg of caffeine for smooth energy. Think: brain + body + mood all vibing in harmony.

I didn’t believe in ‘mushroom magic’ either… but then I tried Rise. Within 30 minutes, my brain fog lifted, my mood leveled, and I had energy without the crash. It’s not hype — it’s 7 powerful mushrooms and nootropics that support focus, mood, and mental clarity. Wanna try a 5-day sample? Just DM me "I'm Curious-Tell me more"!

It's my business to always tell people: these aren’t claims to cure anything. Frequense doesn’t make medical claims. But many of the mushrooms used in Rise have been studied for centuries and are now getting major spotlight in brain and immune health research. All I know is — it changed my mornings.

Sugar alcohols — like erythritol, xylitol, sorbitol, and maltitol — are sweeteners often used in “sugar-free” or “low-carb” foods. They aren’t actually alcohol like what’s in wine or liquor; the name comes from their chemical structure. They taste sweet but don’t behave the same way in the body as regular sugar (glucose or sucrose). It is too sweet, so why use it??
Here’s what sugar alcohols typically do to a diabetic:
Raise blood sugar a little, but not a lot
Educational moment:
Sugar alcohols generally cause a smaller rise in blood sugar compared to regular sugar. However, they are not completely “free” — some can still spike glucose slightly, depending on the type used and how much is eaten.
Vary by type
Erythritol has almost no effect on blood sugar or insulin.
Xylitol and sorbitol cause a small rise in blood sugar.
Maltitol (common in “sugar-free” candies) can cause a larger blood sugar spike — closer to real sugar!
Cause digestive issues if eaten in larger amounts
Sugar alcohols can ferment in the gut and cause bloating, gas, or diarrhea. For diabetics who already have gut sensitivity (and many do), this can create extra discomfort.
Still add some calories
Even though they aren’t counted fully like regular carbs, sugar alcohols still contribute some calories — usually about half the calories of sugar.

Part 2
What do the big studies say about folic acid and autism risk?
a. Periconception folic acid seems protective overall

Several well-designed cohort and case-control studies have found that when women take folic acid before conception and in early pregnancy, their children have a lower risk of ASD:

Norwegian Mother and Child Cohort (MoBa) – >85,000 pregnancies.

Taking folic acid from 4 weeks before to 8 weeks after conception was associated with a significantly reduced risk of autistic disorder in children.
JAMA Network

CHARGE study (California) – a large case–control study:

Maternal periconceptional folic acid intake ≥600 mcg/day was associated with lower odds of ASD and developmental delay vs. low intake.
PMC

Early Autism Risk Longitudinal Investigation (EARLI) – enriched-risk cohort.

Prenatal vitamin/folic acid use in the first month of pregnancy was associated with lower ASD risk and milder autism symptoms.
PubMed

2025 umbrella review (101 studies, >3 million participants)

Maternal folic acid and/or prenatal multivitamin use was associated with about a 30–34% lower risk of ASD overall.
New York Post

This is why major organizations (CDC, USPSTF, WHO, ACOG) still strongly recommend 400–800 mcg of folic acid daily for anyone who could become pregnant, starting at least 1 month before conception and continuing through the first trimester – primarily to prevent neural tube defects, with ASD risk reduction as a likely bonus.
CDC
USPSTF

PART 1 of 5
Consistent, standard-dose folic acid before and in early pregnancy is associated with lower ASD risk and dramatically lower neural tube defect risk. It does not increase ASD risk at these recommended doses.
1. Folate vs folic acid vs methylfolate – quick primer
Folate is the umbrella term for vitamin B9. It includes:
Natural food folate in leafy greens, beans, liver, etc.

Synthetic forms and active forms:
Folic acid – synthetic, very stable, used in fortification & most prenatals.
5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF or “methylfolate”) – the main active circulating form.

Folinic acid (leucovorin) – another reduced form, used medically.
In the body, folate is central to one-carbon metabolism – the pathway that supports:
DNA and RNA synthesis
DNA methylation (turning genes “on” and “off”)
Homocysteine → methionine conversion (with B12, B6, choline, etc.)

MTHFR and other folate-pathway genes control the steps that convert folic acid/folate into methylfolate. Variants like MTHFR C677T and A1298C can reduce this enzyme’s activity and make methylation more fragile.
(American Journal of Clinical Nutrition)

That’s the mechanistic link: if methylation is off, gene expression during early brain development can be altered. Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has repeatedly been associated with disturbances in folate and methylation pathways, though it’s one piece of a very complex puzzle.

🌿 Why I Recommend Oolong Tea, Hot Lemon Water + ACV, and SOURCE During Wellness Scans

When I scan clients, I often see patterns of microorganisms, helminths, and other stressors creating inflammation, fatigue, and discomfort throughout the body. These “invaders” thrive when digestion is sluggish, detox pathways are backed up, and the internal terrain becomes weak or imbalanced.

The good news?
There are simple, natural tools that can support your body while it’s trying to restore balance.

🍵 1. Oolong Tea
Oolong tea is rich in polyphenols that help create an internal environment where unwanted organisms struggle to thrive. These compounds support:
healthy bile flow
gentle gut cleansing
antioxidant activity
immune function

This makes oolong a beautiful daily support when your body is dealing with microbial stress. Feel free to add a little dark, high polyphenol olive oil to your oolong tea.

🍋 2. Hot Lemon Water + Apple Cider Vinegar
Warm lemon water with a splash of ACV helps:
stimulate digestion
support stomach acid (your first line of defense)
aid natural detox pathways
break down mucus and biofilm
improve nutrient absorption

This combination “wakes up” the digestive system and helps the body move out what doesn’t belong.

🌱 3. FREQUENSE SOURCE (Gentle Daily Detox Support)
SOURCE provides minerals, electrolytes, and detox-supporting compounds that help the body:
flush toxins
hydrate deeply
support lymph flow
improve cellular cleansing
maintain electrolyte balance during die-off

It’s gentle enough for daily use and pairs perfectly with oolong tea and ACV because it nourishes the pathways that help your body remove waste.

✨ Why this trio works so well together
When your body is trying to release microorganisms or helminths, it needs:
hydration
minerals
gut activation
bile movement
lymphatic flow
antioxidant protection

This simple protocol delivers all of that in a gentle, supportive way.

🌿 Microorganisms + Helminths Showing Up in Scans? Start Here.

Many of my clients deal with microorganisms and helminths that create chaos inside the body.

Here’s my favorite gentle support trio to help your system move these stressors OUT:
🍵 Oolong Tea – supports digestion, bile flow, and an internal terrain where invaders struggle to thrive. (My research shows Positively, from Walmart on line, the better option)
🍋 Hot Lemon Water + ACV – boosts stomach acid, breaks down biofilm, and supports natural detox pathways.
🌱 SOURCE – replenishes minerals, hydrates cells, and supports gentle daily detox. (Request your discount link from me)

Your body is always trying to heal.
These tools simply help clear the path.

✨ Why I Still Choose Direct Sales After 35 Years ✨

Today I had the sweetest conversation with my business partner, Carla Archer, and she asked me something powerful… “Why have you stayed in direct sales for 35 years?”

The truth?
My reasons have changed and grown right along with me.

💛 In the beginning, it was simple — I needed extra money to support my family and create a little breathing room.
💛 Over the years, it became so much more than income.
It became community. Support. Friendship. A place to grow, learn, and lead.
💛 Today, it’s about impact.
Helping women step into their confidence, improve their well-being, and create options in their lives they didn’t even know were possible.

I’m still here because I believe in excellent products that truly support health.
I’m still here because I love watching women rise.
And I’m still here because this industry changed my life — and I get to pay that forward every single day.

If you’re curious about what’s possible for you, or you’ve wondered what it might look like to build your own brand inside a supportive community…

💬 Drop the word WHY below and I’ll send you the details.

Let’s build something beautiful together.
