  • It may sound like the latest health trend, but in fact, traditional medicine has employed the use of adaptogens for thousands of years.

    Internal and external stress on the body such as; a busy work schedule, emotional challenges, exercise, even the weather - can all play a huge role in our bodies ability to self-regulate. When we face multiple stressors on a daily basis (a la modern life) we often end up feeling rundown, fatigued and overwhelmed as our body struggles to maintain homeostasis.

    This is where adaptogens come in... When consumed, adaptogenic plants interact with the complex system of glands, hormones and receptors in the body know as the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, which is central to the body’s homeostasis, stress responses and energy metabolism.

    The organic properties and compounds contained within adaptogens work with the HPA axis to help balance our systems. If there’s too much of one hormone, for instance, the adaptogens help to lower it. On the flip side, if there isn’t enough of a hormone, adaptogens can help replenish it.

    Studies also suggest adaptogens interact with the immune-neuro-endocrine system, which helps the body regulate its use of energy, maintain strong immune defenses and a state of equilibrium.
