Main Indications:
Helps to Cope with Stress Mobilizes internal energy stores Reduces the impact of stressful conditions Activates whole-body defenses Prevents the body from overreacting to a stressor Adaptogens and Stress Many factors influence how the body responds to lifes challenges. Adaptogens are substances that mobilize internal energy reserves, preventing the body from overreacting to stress and thus avoiding, reducing, or delaying the burnout that follows periods of extreme stress. True adaptogens act by extending the phase of resistance, a state in which the bodys capacities are optimally mobilized to adapt to new challenges. A Natural Solution for Coping with Stress AORs OrthoAdapt contains a carefully formulated blend of vitamins, nutrients and herbs with adaptogenic properties. These include pantethine(an active co-enzyme form of vitamin B5), Vitamin C, well-known botanicals like Rhodiola, Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera), Licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra), Siberian ginseng (Eleutherococcus senticosus), and adrenal glandulars, providing superior support for the adrenal glands, which are key to the bodys stress coping abilities. OrthoAdapt is also available in a vegan formula which does not contain glandulars.
