Adaptogens
are natural substances found in rare plants and herbs. Diets rich
in adaptogenic nutrients have been proven to have extraordinary
impact on the human body - physically, mentally and emotionally
- to provide benefits you cannot get from anything else in the modern
western diet. They have been scientifically proven to help the body
protect itself from stress, to adapt to stressful conditions or
changes, and to function at its optimal level - helping you to look,
feel and be your best.
Although
Adaptogens are still relatively new to us, there are thousands of
scientific studies documenting the benefits of including Adaptogens
in the diet. Much of that research on Adaptogens stems from the
legacy of Dr Israel Brekhman, a Russian scientist who studied Adaptogens
for 45 years and literally taught the scientific community what
they had to offer to humankind. Inside the former Soviet Union,
Dr Brekhman's research was secret but significant and was applied
with great success in the diets of Soviet cosmonauts and Olympic
athletes to show off their superiority to the world.
How
do Adaptogens work?
Stress
affects the body all the way down to the cellular level, where stress
chokes and starves cells of their energy. Thus, stress reduces the
efficiency and vitality not only of the cells itself - but also
of whatever body system to which the cell belongs. Adaptogens work
at the cellular level - to improve the function of every cell in
the body all at the same time.
Adaptogens
help each cell use its energy by combining glucose and enzymes.
This allows the cell full access to its energy potential. Positive
changes in each cell mean healthier functioning of every organ and
body system. Adaptogens help your body help itself. They support
the built-in capacities of the body's own self-regulatory defense
systems. Adaptogens release your own innate energy, vitality and
strength to help you feel and be your best.
What
can Adaptogens do for me?
Numerous studies
have shown the unique benefits of diets supplemented with adaptogens.
They help the body:
- Increase
number of T-cells that boost immune resistance.
- Access
additional stamina and endurance.
- Speed up
recovery from physical activity.
- Better
focus and concentration.
- Protect
vital organs from stress.
- Increase
physical and mental work capacity.
- Accelerate
the rehabilitative processes.
- Increase
the functional reserves of the cardiovascular system.
- Stimulate
normal biosynthesis of protein and nucleic acids.
- Inhibit
free-radical oxidation.
How
do PrimeQuest Adaptogenic products versus other products on the
market?
Dr
Brekhman's life work spanning 45 years and 3 000 clinical studies
included the examination of hundreds and thousands of plants to
find the most powerful and most effective which he was to later
classify as adaptogens. Most products contain only a single Adaptogen
at very small, often ineffective, quantities. However, Dr Brekhman
found that by combining 7 specific plant extracts (which met his
strict criteria of being all-natural, safe, and non-toxic), the
effectiveness was exponentially multiplied.
How
does stress affect the body?
When under stress, the body reacts by producing adrenaline which
puts the whole body on a state of alert - chemical signals that
prepare the body and mind for stress. The metabolism, blood pressure,
and circulation are disrupted; immunity and resistance are drastically
reduced; performance suffers. In short, stress undermines health
and destroys well-being.
What
do Adaptogens do at the cellular level?
Health
is dependent on the healthy functioning of the cells. Stress has
an impact at the cellular level - depriving cells of their energy
supply. When a cell cannot function properly it becomes weak and
damaged. The body gradually breaks down as disease and the ageing
processes begins. This is where adaptogens enter the picture in
a remarkable way. From the beginning they allow the cell to absorb
and use its available energy by uniting glucose and enzymes. Adaptogens
also prevent the formation of complex molecules which obstruct the
cells from manufacturing energy properly. The body is allowed full
access to its energy potential and the cells remain healthy.
This
process actually takes place in every cell in the body. The cells
return to healthier functioning as the various body organs and systems
begin to normalize.
This
normalizing effect may be noticeable in various internal or external
ways. Ultimately, the entire body will normalize itself and achieve
the balance that nature intended.
Is
there anything else in nature which works this way?
No,
adaptogens are completely unique in nature. Scientists have struggled
with stress for decades, but have never achieved this scientific
breakthrough. Adaptogens are the only natural substances which can
help the body protect itself from stress. They provide benefits
which are impossible to get in any other way.
