Adaptogens: How adaptogens and glandular tonics can help you cope with a stressful world

It’s no secret that we live in stressful times.  Our lives are fast-paced and to maintain that pace many of us resort to consuming high amounts of sugar and caffeinated beverages, coffee, colas, and the so-called “energy” drinks. As we continue to burn the candle at both ends, we start to feel “burned out.” We become anxious, our sleep is restless and disturbed, our energy levels drop and we experience back pain, neck pain, headaches, and other aches from muscle tension. High stress levels also contribute to digestive problems and weight gain, while paving the way for many chronic illnesses.

Most of us could benefit from downsizing our stress, that is, by finding more ways to relax and enjoy life.  We can also downsize our stress by reducing the output of stress hormones from our adrenal glands.  This can have a positive effect on our sleep, energy, sex drive, mood, and overall health.  Fortunately, there are natural remedies that help us do just that.  They are called adaptogens.

Adaptogens are herbs that modulate the production of stress hormones.  They have been shown to improve both physical and mental performance, enhance immunity, improve sleep, restore energy, and otherwise help people cope better with life.  Closely related to adaptogens are herbs and nutrients that feed the glands, especially the thyroid and adrenals.  These herbs have been traditionally used to counteract the effects of aging and improve overall health and well-being.  Join us for this Sunshine Sharing Hour and learn how adaptogens and adrenal tonics can help you cope with life’s stress and improve your overall health.
