In today's stress-filled world, finding relief is a priority, especially since the pandemic began. Adaptogens are a not-so-new, yet increasingly popular solution for stress relief and overall wellness.

Across Asia, and in particular India, adaptogens have been trusted for centuries to address various health issues. Now, as research expands, medical experts worldwide are acknowledging their potential benefits.

Adaptogens are herbal supplements derived from herbs, roots, and plant substances, including mushrooms. They aid the body in managing stress —whether physical, emotional, or environmental. These natural substances have been used in traditional medicine systems like Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine for centuries due to their potential to support the body's resilience and overall well-being. People consume adaptogens in various forms, such as capsules, teas, or powders (like our products😉) added to soups, smoothies, and foods.

Experts believe adaptogens interact with the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, which triggers the body's stress response and plays a vital role in maintaining overall balance.

Our products include some of the most well known adaptogens...

Ashwagandha

also known as "Indian Ginseng”, one of the most important herb of Ayurveda (the traditional system of medicine in India). It strengthens brain and nervous system function. As a potent adaptogen, it also boosts resilience to stress and improves cell-mediated immunity, while offering strong antioxidant protection against free radical damage.

Reishi

one of the most important traditional medicinal mushrooms and most powerful adaptogens present in nature. It regulates biological functions and holds pharmacological traits like anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antiaging, immunomodulatory, and antitumor activities.

Tumeric

the golden yellow spice that has long been recognised for its medicinal properties. Curcumin is the active compound inside turmeric, which assists in management of oxidative and inflammatory conditions, metabolic syndrome, arthritis, anxiety, and hyperlipidemia. However, curcumin alone doesn't yield its health benefits due to poor bioavailability caused by low absorption, rapid metabolism, and elimination. Combining it with compounds like piperine, found in black pepper, can significantly enhance bioavailability by up to 2000%!
