Description
What Are Adaptogens?
Adaptogens are plant substances (often herbs) that have been found to help our bodies manage stress and maintain balance, or homeostasis. In other words, they help us adapt to external stressors. By strengthening our internal systems, adaptogens can promote vitality, stabilize mood and improve performance and focus. They can be consumed as supplement capsules, teas or tinctures.
Adaptogens are meant to help our bodies build resilience to stress and mitigate its further affects on the body.
How Do Adaptogens Work?
Researchers say adaptogenic herbs interact with the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, which is a complex system of glands, hormones and receptors in the human body. The HPA axis is central to the body’s homeostasis, stress responses and energy metabolism.
When we consume adaptogens, their organic properties and compounds work with the HPA axis to help balance our systems. If there’s too much of one hormone, for instance, the adaptogens help to lower it. On the flip side, if there isn’t enough of a hormone, adaptogens can help replenish its levels.
Studies also suggest adaptogens interact with the immune-neuro-endocrine system, which helps the body regulate its use of energy and maintain strong immune defenses.
Benefits of Adaptogenic Herbs
Integrative medicine, and adaptogens specifically, can help fill the gaps left by Western medical practices. Adaptogens have thousands of years of historical use to back up their use, as well as increasingly informative modern studies.
“There’s no substitute [for adaptogens] in Western medicine,” says Andrea Fossati, M.D., an integrative healthcare specialist in Vermont. “If I talk to a patient about using an adaptogen, it might be somebody falling through the cracks.”
Adaptogens help the body’s internal systems build resilience for long-term wellness rather than providing a quick fix.

Potential Risks and Side Effects
They are better in lower doses. Experts recommend ingesting adaptogenic herbs in small doses each day over the course of six to 12 weeks (unless you’re directed otherwise by your homeopath/naturopath). Taking larger doses in a single sitting may result in adverse effects, such as nausea, vomiting, dizziness or headaches.
