Adaptogens
Adaptogens or adaptogenic herbs are medicinal herbs that have been adopted into Ayurvedic, Chinese and naturopathic medicines.
“Adaptogens are non-toxic plants that are marketed as helping the body resist stresses of all kinds, whether physical, chemical or biological. These herbs and roots have been used for centuries in Chinese and Ayurvedic healing traditions, but they’re having a renaissance today. Some, like holy basil, can be eaten as part of a meal, and some are consumed as supplements or brewed into teas.
Each one claims to do something a little different, but on the whole, “adaptogens help your body handle stress,” says Dr. Brenda Powell, co-medical director of the Center for Integrative and Lifestyle Medicine at the Cleveland Clinic’s Wellness Institute. “They’re meant to bring us back to the middle.” (Source: time.com/5025278/adaptogens-herbs-stress-anxiety)
Our bodies deal with stress, ranging from a mild reaction to something that is annoying to a full-on reaction that can result in us going into fight or flight mode and everything in between. This results in hormonal reactions in our bodies. Adaptogens then help our body to respond to stress.
Harness the Power of Adaptogens for Holistic Well-Being
Nowadays, wellness takes centre stage; adaptogens have emerged as nature’s secret to achieving balance and vitality. As an advocate of holistic well-being, The Coconut Store proudly offers a selection of Nutra Organics’ organic lattes, including Mermaid Latte, Lunar Latte, Matcha Latte, and more. These delightful creations have become favourites at our store due to their exceptional taste, nourishing adaptogenic properties, and Nutra Organics’ commitment to using high-quality ingredients sourced sustainably.
A couple of my favourite adaptogenic drinks are:
Mermaid Latte
It has ancient adaptogenic Ashwagandha, Siberian Ginseng, Licorice Root and Milk Thistle that are traditionally used in Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Modalities. It’s great for winding down. I like this instead of an afternoon cup of coffee.
Matcha Latte with Coconut & Manuka Honey
It has enlivening and awakening adaptogenic mushrooms and coconut MCT oil. They’re easy to make and can also be added to smoothies and cake/muffin batter.
