Hello, Adaptogens! Super Powder Recipe (dairy free + no added sugar + gluten free + paleo + keto)

This simple herb blend is the perfect way to introduce three of the most powerful adptogens available into your diet one simple scoop at a time!


MACA is a Peruvian herb that contains powerful plant compounds called flavonoids, which have been shown to help reduce anxiety and balance hormones.


ASTRAGALUS is an herb that has been used in Chinese medicine for it's immune-boosting, anti-aging, anti-inflammatory effects for hundreds of years.


ASHWAGANDHA is an Ayurvedic herb that has been used for over 3,000 years to for it's restorative properties, as well as it's ability to boost energy, improve concentration and increase energy levels.


Adaptogenic compounds, or adaptogens, are naturally occurring substances that help to restore hormonal balance and better moderate the body's reaction to stress by supporting the internal systems that regulate hormone production.


The adrenal system is one of the most important systems in the body because it controls production on the stress hormones cortisol and adrenaline. These "stress hormones" can be extremely helpful to our survival and play an important role in our "fight or flight" response.


But, while Cortisol and adrenaline help us to perform well in stressful circumstances, they are only meant to be released in moderation and can cause irreversible damage to cells when the body endures a prolonged stress response.


Each adaptogenic compound helps to support a different function of the body's response to stress, but they all act as a preventative form of stress management by helping the body to better regulate its hormonal response to stressors.
