What Are Adaptogens?

Adaptogens are herbs or plants that help the body adapt to stress and maintain homeostasis—a self-regulating process that balances your body's internal biological systems.3 You can find adaptogens sold as supplements in capsules, tinctures, powders, and beverages. Some dried and fresh adaptogenic herbs can also be ingested. 

People take adaptogens to support their body's ability to handle stress, improve energy levels, boost immune function, and enhance overall vitality.” "The primary goal of adaptogens is to help the body adapt to various physical, emotional, and environmental stressors, thus increasing resilience and reducing the negative impacts of stress on the body."

Adaptogens are believed to help manage the body's reaction to anything that causes stress. Major stressors include infections, environmental pollution, UV radiation, physical exertion, medicine, and emotional stress.
