What Are Adaptogens?
Pure Nutrition adaptogen formula is a stress-management supplement featuring a comprehensive blend of herbal extracts with adaptogenic properties. Each capsule of Pure Nutrition adaptogen contains:
- Ashwagandha root
- Rhodiola rosea root
- Astragalus root
- Maca root
- Eleutherococcus senticosus root
- Panax ginseng stem and leaves
- Holy basil leaf
- Schisandra fruit
- Amla fruit
These herbs work by helping the body “adapt” to stress and restore balance (homeostasis), hence the term “adaptogen.”
Benefits of Adaptogen Supplementation
Adaptogens, in a broad physiological sense, work by modulating your HPA (hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal) axis — a component of your neuroendocrine system. The HPA axis is how your body controls stress response, primarily by secreting catecholamines and glucocorticoids like cortisol.
When your HPA axis is overactive (e.g. when facing chronic stress), your body will produce higher levels of stress hormones like cortisol. Having high cortisol levels can cause:
- Anxiety and panic attacks
- High blood pressure
- Difficulty concentrating
- Mood swings
- Brain fog
- Restlessness
Due to all of the negative side effects of chronically elevated cortisol levels, it’s imperative to keep your HPA axis in check (especially if you live a stressful lifestyle); this is where adaptogens shine.
Benefits of supplementing with herbal adaptogens may include:
- Supporting healthy stress management
- Promoting restorative sleep
- Improved mental performance and cognitive function
- Encouraging healthy metabolic and immune functions
- Easing inflammation
Recommended Use
- Take 1 capsule 1 to 2 times per day, preferably with a meal or as directed by your healthcare provider.
