Adaptogenic herbs are natural stress busters that work to rebalance, rejuvenate and restore your body. They recharge your adrenal glands and make you capable of responding positively to stress. Three of the most popular adaptogenic herbs are ginseng, ashwagandha and rhodiola. Let’s discuss them in detail.Nature is incredible! It is constantly providing us with the resources necessary for remaining healthy and happy. Since today’s world is not slowing down, use these amazing natural herbs to heal yourself and cope with your hectic lifestyle.Natural Herbs To Combat StressAshwagandha, also known as Indian ginseng, is a shrub found in India, North America, Africa and some parts of the Middle East. This shrub belongs to a tomato family and bears small berry-like red fruits. The root of the ashwagandha plant has been used since ancient times by Ayurvedic practitioners to cure a variety of health conditions, including stress.Why It WorksAshwagandha is composed of compounds such as withanolides, alkaloids and steroidal lactones. All of these are known to provide relief from chronic stress. Unlike other medications that mask the condition, this miraculous herb works by attacking the root cause of your stress.How It WorksChronic stress causes your adrenal glands to become depleted. Ashwagandha helps cope with stress because it maintains optimum adrenal levels. Further, it calms a stressed mind and balances the sympathetic nervous system. Ashwagandha is reported to reduce the level of the stress hormone cortisol in chronically stressed individuals.Clinical StudyA study conducted by K Chandrasekhar et al. and published in the Indian Journal of Physiological Medicine proved that ashwagandha root extract helps to effectively and safely improve resistance to stress and anxiety, thereby improving overall quality of life.Ginseng has been used for more than 4,000 years to help the body withstand stress and enhance mental and physical strength. There are two varieties of ginseng. Panax, or Asian ginseng, comes from China and Korea. American ginseng is traditionally used by Native Americans to cure a number of ailments.Why It WorksGinseng root is rich in ginsenosides, which carry potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It also contains panaxins, polysaccharides, biotin, choline and saponins.How It WorksThe substances contained in ginseng roots directly affect the adrenal glands, which secrete the stress hormones cortisol and adrenalin. Saponins slow down the formation of stress hormones, while choline works to delay fatigue brought on by physical activity. Polysaccharides boost your body’s immune system and biotin helps to improve the health of your nervous system.Clinical StudyA study conducted by Lee SH. et al. carried out to understand the Anti-Stress Effects Of Ginseng concluded that ginseng has anti-stress properties and plays a neuroprotective role in an immobilization-stressed brain.Rhodiola, also known as Arctic or Golden Root, is found in some of the coldest regions of the world, including Iceland, Scandinavia, the Arctic region and the Appalachian Mountains of North America. This herb belongs to a class of plants and fungi and is regarded as a great healer due to its remarkable ability to help individuals survive during times of anxiety and stress.Why It WorksRhodiola contains potent antioxidants, phenolic acids, gallic acids, flavonoids and monoterpenes. This unique blend of powerful compounds optimizes your stress hormone levels and helps you to cope with stress.How It WorksStudies indicate that Rhodiola increases endorphin, serotonin and dopamine activity within the brain. Dopamine helps to increase your self-esteem and confidence. Having the optimum amounts of serotonin in your body aids in balancing your mood and keeps you calm and positive. Endorphins lift your spirits and make you feel good.Clinical StudyA double blind cross over study was conducted by Darbinyan V et al. to learn the effects of Rhodiola rosea in stress induced fatigue. They observed the effect of Rhodiola on the mental performance of 56 healthy physicians during night duty and concluded that this herb can successfully reduce stress under certain stressful conditions..

  Fermented Green Supremefood™ Sachet by Dr. Don Colbert (1 Packet) (Delicious & Sweetened with Stevia) Why are Fermented Superfoods better then Standard Superfoods Fermented foods have been a food choice for centuries. The practice is defined as a transformation of a substance (organic food) caused by bacteria, yeasts, molds, and other microorganisms.Complex organic catalysts and enzymes trigger a chemical response in the organic substance(s). In early history, this transformation was considered an act of the Divine. Since the practice occurred in the Jiahu village in China, where honey, rice, and beverages were made via fermentation.Researchers suggest that the process of fermentation was most likely stumbled upon when people started using salt in food. The accidental discovery of salt’s preservative power later led to the ancient Chinese to begin inoculating foods with enzyme creating molds. In more modern times, the fermentation process is also used to make vitamins, antibiotics, and both gluconic and citric acid, in addition to its continued use on the preservation and transformation of foods and beverages.Each Scoop Contains the Antioxidant Equivalency of 6 Servings of Vegetables Fundamental BenefitsThe Organic Green Tea and Digestive Enzymes Supply the body with tremendous amounts of natural energy.Organic antioxidants and probiotics help neutralize harmful free radicals.The Digestive Enzymes and Probiotics create an environment in the body, which optimizes healthy digestion.The Organic fiber found in Green Supremefood improves satiety and supports healthy glucose levels.The chlorophyll found in Wheat Grass, Spirulina and and chlorella create an alkaline environment in the tissues optimizing detoxification.

As a mum of two toddlers, I find myself looking for something sugary at midday cause my energy levels are so low. But after I started having my green juice at 3pm I experience so much energy it’s crazy. My skin’s looking better. I feel stronger. I love this product. It’s the best.I did notice that it improved my digestion, though, and reduced food cravings. And I was encouraged to think that the supplement may be detoxifying heavy metals, pesticides, and toxins.As a former professional rugby player I have tried many over the counter supplements to improve on field performance. Green Supremefood™ is the best of this section of the market, making it the best of the best. Easy to consume and packed with all the best nutrition.I currently use both Green Supremefood™ and Red Supremefood™ Everyday. I really love both products! One of the most basic and fundamental benefits found in fermented foods is that the food is preserved longer than fresh food. Fermenting foods increases the bioavailability of the nutrients in the food. Thus, you derive greater levels of nutrients in an easily digestible form, all the while increasing the number of good bacteria consumed. When foods are going through the fermentation process, the bacteria predigest some of the food, breaks down cellular walls in vegetables, and makes the nutrients and vitamins easy to absorb. This is true of carrots, beets, collard greens, peas, kelp, kale, parsley, broccoli, and spinach as well as other fermented vegetables.Fermented Foods & Gastrointestinal HealthThere’s evidence the consumption of foods that have been fermented eases digestion and simultaneously improves absorption.Our bodies are exposed to a multitude of factors that throw off the inner balance of the bacteria in the gut. When this happens, it can affect your ability to absorb foods properly, and it can also lead to illness and the weakening of immune system functioning. Some of the factors that cause bacterial imbalance in the gut include the use of antibiotics, excessive sugar consumption, excessive carbohydrate consumption, too many processed foods in the diet, and psychological stress.Consuming fermented foods helps in restoring the balance of good versus harmful gut bacteria. A number of health conditions are linked to an imbalance of gut bacteria, including conditions like asthma, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, constipation, Candidiasis (area and systemic yeast infections), and gluten and lactose intolerance.How Green Supremefood™ is Made Step 1 Add 10 veggies and 4 grassesStep 2 Add Prebiotic (Organic Molases)Step 3 Add Probiotic (Sacchromyces Boulardii,Lactobacillus plantarum)Step 4 Add Water and sit for 3 – 4 Days  The Health Benefits of Fermented VegetablesWhen you ferment vegetables, you are able to easily digest and absorb vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients, antioxidants, and enzymes in the food. For instance, when fermenting beets, you increase the nutrient density in beets especially Vitamin C. Pickled beets are also an outstanding source of magnesium, Vitamin A, Potassium, fiber, and low in fat. Meanwhile, carrots have no saturated fat, no cholesterol and offers 60 percent the daily allowance of vitamin A after fermentation. The vegetable is rich in carotenoids, as is parsley, with the latter having two times the carotenoids that carrots contain.Another vegetable rich in carotenoids is broccoli. Carotenoids are antioxidant rich phytochemicals; some research suggests that carotenoids may even offer some protection against macular degeneration. According to the United States Department of Agriculture, spinach has similar benefits; it is another fermentable vegetable featuring carotenoids as well as the flavones Apigenin and Luteolin. Apigenin is a natural imune booster, while Luteolin also has immune boosting properties, anti-inflammatory properties, and anti-viral effects.Essentially, the health benefits of fermented vegetables are well documented. Looking at the benefits of consuming fermented vegetables reveals that fermented selections are a healthier alternative. Bear in mind the decision to eat fermented or regular foods shouldn’t be an all or nothing choice. WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals including Arsenic, Cadmium and Lead, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.

 FUNCTIONSGlucose metabolism that is associated with abnormally high blood glucose can lead to high levels of glycation. Glycation is the non-enzymatic attachment of sugars to major molecules in the body, including proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. Glycation reactions generate advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) and glycotoxin intermediates. AGEs cause abnormal and destructive functioning of body proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. AGE-associated damage is suspected in the pathogenesis of many diseases and age-related deteriorations, such as atherosclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease, and severe diabetic complications, including neuropathy, nephropathy, retinopathy, and cataracts.Gymnema sylvestre is an Ayurvedic botanical that may assist in the regeneration and repair of pancreatic beta cells. Gymnema is also suspected of reducing intestinal glucose absorption. Bitter melon(Momordica charantia) grows in tropical areas, including parts of East Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, and South America, where it is used as a food as well as a medicinal remedy. The fruit of this plant lives up to its name it tastes very bitter. These include a mixture of steroidal saponins known as charantin, insulin-like peptides, and alkaloids. Research shows that (-) hydroxycitric acid helps maintain a healthy balance of hepatic lipogenesis and gluconeogenesis, thus preventing excessive conversion of glucose from carbohydrate into body fat. It is found in Garcinia cambogia, a tropical fruit grown in Asian rain forest area. Research also indicates that (-) hydrocitric acid plays an important role in the regulation of a normal appetite. Alpha-lipoic acid is a fat- and water-soluble, sulfur-containing coenzyme. It functions in the body much like a B-vitamin, since it is involved in energy production.As part of several multi-enzyme complexes located in the mitochondria, alpha-lipoic acid is essential for metabolizing carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, and for the conversion of their energy into ATP. Two of these enzyme complexes,PDH (pyruvate dehydrogenase) and alpha-KGDH (alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase) are part of the citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle), and as such assume a central role for general energy production. Another lipoic acid containing enzyme complex, BCKADH (branched-chain keto-acid dehydrogenase), is involved in deriving energy from the branched chain?amino acids, leucine, isoleucine, and valine. A related metabolic function of alpha-lipoic acid is its role in blood glucose disposal. This important coenzyme appears to be necessary for the normal transport of blood glucose into the cell. This may be explained by its functions in the glucose-metabolizing enzymes, PDH and alpha-KGDH, but some researchers suspect a more direct role in cellular glucose uptake at the cell membrane. Chromium is anintegral component of the glucose tolerance factor(GTF), a naturally occurring compound of chromium, nicotinic acid, and amino acids that us essential for proper glucose metabolism. Adequate chromium nutrition is essential for the formation of GTF and subsequent control of blood glucose levels.These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

Supports healthy cardiovascular and cholesterol health Supplies Styrinol, plant sterols, and pomegranate. Styrinol is a combination of flavonoids derived from the peel of tangerines and tocotrienols derived from palm. The flavonoids in Styrinol have been studied with regard to their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory actions. Specifically, with respect to cholesterol metabolism, tocotrienols have been shown to inhibit the hepatic enzyme responsible for the synthesis of cholesterol. Together, the synergistic action of the two — the flavonoids and the tocotrienols provide powerful support for cardiovascular health. Plant sterols are naturally occurring, plant compounds that have structures similar to, yet slightly different from cholesterol. Research has shown that these compounds compete with the absorption of dietary cholesterol in the GI tract. Therefore, supplementation with plant sterols, especially when combined with other therapies for lowering cholesterol, can significantly decrease cholesterol levels.
