My Daily Adaptogen Stack

Dr. Shawn Talbott (Ph.D., CNS, LDN, FACSM, FACN, FAIS) has gone from triathlon struggler to gut-brain guru! With a Ph.D. in Nutritional Biochemistry, he's on a mission to boost everyday human performance through the power of natural solutions and the gut-brain axis.

Adaptogens have long been associated with increasing energy, enhancing stamina, and reducing fatigue. 

They encourage physical work capacity and mental performance. Often referred to as “tonics” or “elixirs” – they have far reaching effects on overall physiological health, supporting immune, cardiovascular, and endocrine functions. 

At the same time, they help the body to adapt to and cope with stress, primarily by supporting the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. 

Panax Ginseng promotes mental  and physical drive (motivation), while also promoting cognitive, cardiovascular and immune function. 

Ashwagandha is recognized for encouraging resistance to environmental stress and supporting immune function and cognitive function. 

Cordyceps, Eleuthero and Rhodiola are traditionally associated with rejuvenating effects and the ability to promote endurance (what traditional Chinese medicine would refer to as “Qi” (chee = “life force”) – and Tonkgat Ali is helpful for hormone balance in men and women, especially when they’re under elevated levels of stress.
