Adaptogens are powerful antioxidants, which help us cope with stress including that of every day life. Adaptogens are non-toxic and non-habit forming. They have a normalizing influence on the body, and possess a wide range of therapeutic benefits which cause no disturbance to the normal function of your body.
Adaptogens are natural nutrients which are made from three types of plants - Rhodiola rosea, Eleutherococcus and Schizandra chinensis.
Adaptogens will affect every individual differently. You may feel more energetic and vitalized, or feel relaxed and feel that life easier to cope with. Although you might have these end results, adaptogens are not stimulants or tranquillizers and will not have a drug-like effect on the body. Adaptogens are safe and effective and have been tested by various institutes, academies and sports agencies. They contain no drugs, preservatives or banned substances.
The antioxidants contained in the adaptogens help the body fight free radicals which are released during the oxidation process of metabolism in the body, which can cause a variety of problems such as cell degeneration, cancer, aging and other diseases.
