Adaptogens are herbs and plants that help the body adapt to stressors.
Stress can harm the neurological, endocrine, and immune systems in the body.
Studies have revealed that adaptogens have neuroprotective, anti-fatigue, anti-depressive, anti-anxiety, and nootropic (cognitive enhancing) qualities. These anti-fatigue qualities in adaptogens, also increase mental work capacity in tolerance to stress, fatigue, mental exhaustion.
Adaptogenic herbs are now posing as effective solutions to ailments, such as: stress, anxiety, depression, fatigue, and a compromised immune system. Not only that, but adaptogens are often promoted as safe, natural alternatives to pharmaceutical medications.
Each type of adaptogen has its own unique properties and benefits. For example, Ashwagandha is an adaptogen that normalizes cortisol levels, reduces stress and anxiety, uplifts mood, increases energy levels, supports the adrenal glands, stabilizes blood sugar levels, reduces inflammation, and improves brain function.
