VÄXA AdaptTM
Discovered by Russian Scientists,
adaptogens are specific plant extracts that help control excess
cortisol levels during times of stress. Cortisol in excess
amounts is highly toxic and attacks muscle mass and organs,
lengthens recovery time, and can weaken the immune system.
VÄXA Adapt is a liquid blend of ten adaptogenic
herbs in one formula. Adapt was designed to help you better
"adapt" or manage stress. Since
we now understand the extensive effects of cortisol on our
body, it is understandable that managing your cortisol levels
can support your overall health.
The ingredients in Adapt naturally support the body's
ability to:
Help the body manage
excess stress
Aid stress-related fatigue
Support proper immune
system function
Maintain focus and
concentration
Promote consistent energy levels and vitality
Support physical
performance
Promote healthy functioning of adrenal
glands
Encourage normal sexual function
How were Adaptogens Discovered & What Makes an Adaptogen?
During the mid 1950's, the Soviet government chartered their
Academy of Sciences with the task of developing a product
that would enhance the performance of their elite athletes.
The substance needed to support and normalize bodily function
while also increasing resistance to stress. They studied,
isolated and interpreted many plants documenting their
ultra potent benefits and astounding capabilities. The scientists
decoded thousands of plants and found 10 rare plants in
a far eastern Russian area called the Primorye that fit
their goals.
To be considered an adaptogen, plant extracts have to meet
three key criteria. First, they have to be totally non-toxic
to human cells. Second, they must support cells at a healthy
state. Lastly, they need to help the body adapt to stress.
These plants provided the basis for achieving
their three objectives as well as control the production
of cortisol during times of stress. They coined the word
Adaptogen for the plants that demonstrated those properties.
How is Cortisol Produced?
Cortisol is produced by stress. Stress triggers the adrenal glands to secrete the hormone
cortisol as a response to any kind of physical or psychological
stress. Since stress is a daily part of our lives and for
the most part unavoidable; we all have cortisol in our systems.
How is Adapt Taken?
Adapt is taken by placing two droppers full under the
tongue, holding for 30 seconds and swallowing. This method
assures quick and thorough absorption. Since Adapt is an
extract in liquid form, it is absorbed sublingually and
through the gut, so most people feel some effect within
10-15 minutes. There are no known side effects of Adapt,
but you should not take this formula if you have had an
organ transplant. If you are pregnant or nursing, or taking
blood pressure or heart medication, consult a physician
before taking Adapt. |
