Adaptogenic
Benefits for Your Body
Adaptogenic benefits are thought
to be practically endless for human kind. For most of his life,
Dr. Israel Brekhman dedicated his time to finding a natural way
to bring happiness and health to all. He traveled to a remote area
in the wild Russian jungle and mountains, known as the Primoyre,
to find a variety of plants that would provide adaptogenic benefits
to people.
Adaptogenic benefits can vary depending on the plants. Adaptogens
generally help a person cope with stress, anxiety and fatigue, but
again, various plants can provide much more according to your needs.
Adaptogens are agents that come from plants. They are nontoxic,
they increase a person’s resistance to various physical, chemical
and biological stresses, and they help the body maintain homeostasis.
The adaptogenic benefits of these agents are vast.
For example, the adaptogenic benefits of Reishi, or Lingzhi, are
different from the adaptogenic benefits found in Ashwagandha, also
known as Winter Cherry. Reishi is a mushroom that has been used
for medicine in China for the past 4,000 years. Known as the “mushroom
of immortality,” Reishi’s believed adaptogenic benefits
are its ability to stabilize blood pressure and serve as a kidney
and nerve tonic. The adaptogenic benefits of the winter cherry root,
a traditional medicine in India, deal with endurance and the ability
to fight off colds. Winter Cherry also has adaptogenic benefits
like the ability to help rejuvenate the body, strengthen the immune
system and control insomnia.
Adaptogenic benefits can range from stress, anxiety and fatigue
relief to helping with issues with the immune system, liver, kidneys,
cardiovascular system and more.
