Help your body adapt to stressful or anxiety-ridden situations through adaptogens!
Adaptogens are a buzzword in the wellness world, popping up everywhere from juice bars to lifestyle blogs. But what are adaptogenic herbs, exactly? Here’s what you need to know:
Adaptogens are plants that help the body respond to stress by regulating hormone responses. They’ve been around for centuries as part of Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine and they’re used to combat mental fatigue, increase energy and handle stress.
And that’s not all – they are also neuroprotective, balance your hormones, give you more energy and ease depression.
Increase your body’s ability to resist fatigue by adding ashwagandha, ginseng, turmeric, rhodiola and licorice in your diet with a spicy touch of ginger.
Then combine the proprieties of avocado, hemp protein, coconut oil & flakes, pomegranate, goji, yum and peppermint and you get a hero dose of calmness in a vegan smoothie. Seal the deal with lucuma and just a pinch of salt & pepper.
(That’s right, another opportunity to tell your friends that you’re vegan)
Your best nutritional shot to resist stressors of all kinds, whether physical, chemical or biological.
