The result? Fatigue, brain fog, mood swings, and a sense of burnout that impacts both mental and physical health.
That is where adaptogens come in.
These powerful plant compounds have been used for centuries in traditional healing systems like Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine. Today, they are making a comeback in modern wellness for one simple reason: they work.
At More. Longevity & Wellbeing, we are not about trends. We are about truth.
Adaptogens are more than a buzzword. They are time-tested, science-backed allies for helping the body handle stress in a balanced way. Let’s explore what they are, how they work, and why they deserve a place in your wellness routine.
Adaptogens are natural substances such as roots, mushrooms, and herbs that help your body respond to stress in a healthy way. Instead of masking stress or forcing one specific outcome, they help regulate and restore balance.
Think of adaptogens like a thermostat for your wellbeing:
• If you are feeling anxious, wired, or overwhelmed, they help bring you back down to a state of calm.
• If you are feeling tired, foggy, or sluggish, they help bring your energy back up.
Common Adaptogens and Their Benefits
• Ashwagandha – Helps calm the mind, support stress resilience, and promote better sleep.
• Lion’s Mane – Supports focus, mental clarity, and brain health.
• Reishi – Promotes relaxation, immune health, and emotional balance.
• Rhodiola – Boosts stamina and endurance during physical or mental stress.
• Ginseng – Traditionally used to enhance energy and vitality.
These herbs have been trusted for centuries, and today modern science is confirming their benefits.
Our ancestors did not face constant emails, traffic jams, or the glow of screens late at night. Modern stress is different. It is constant, low-level, and deeply wired into how we live.
Over time, this type of stress can disrupt sleep, weaken immunity, trigger mood swings, and drain energy reserves.
Adaptogens offer a holistic, non-habit-forming way to support the body’s stress response naturally. Unlike harsh stimulants that spike energy and then crash, or sedatives that dull the senses, adaptogens help you feel balanced and steady. When taken consistently, they work with your body’s natural systems to create sustainable resilience.
When you are stressed, your body releases hormones like cortisol and adrenaline. These are essential for short-term survival, like when you need to respond quickly to danger or perform under pressure.
But when stress becomes constant, cortisol stays elevated. Over time, this can lead to:
• Sleep disturbances
• Lower immunity
• Blood sugar imbalances
• Fatigue and burnout
• Anxiety or irritability
Adaptogens support balance by interacting with the HPA axis, which controls how your body responds to stress. This helps you recover faster and maintain steadier energy levels throughout the day.
Not all adaptogen products are created equal. Many on the market use raw mushroom powders or low doses of herbs that are unlikely to make a noticeable impact. Some even contain unnecessary fillers or additives.
At More. Longevity & Wellbeing, our formulations are different:
• Pure extract powders for maximum bioavailability
• Meaningful dosages based on research, so you actually feel a difference
• No fillers or shortcuts in any product
• Synergy-driven blends that combine adaptogens with vitamins and functional ingredients for total body support
This is what we mean by systems-based wellness. We focus on the way nutrients work together to bring balance to multiple pathways in the body.
Example: Our Vitality Blend combines maca root with other bioavailable nutrients to support energy, mood, and hormonal balance without overstimulation.
Adaptogens are most effective when taken consistently over time. Think of them like exercise or eating well. The benefits build gradually and become part of your baseline wellness.
Here are a few tips for getting started:
1. Start with one product – This helps you tune into how your body responds.
2. Take with food or a smoothie – Most adaptogens absorb well when paired with healthy fats and other nutrients.
3. Make it part of a ritual – Add them to your morning coffee, evening tea, or post-workout routine.
4. Be patient and consistent – Real results come from regular use over weeks, not days.
You do not have to push through burnout or rely on endless caffeine to get through the day.
With the right adaptogens, you can support your body’s natural ability to bounce back, think clearly, and stay grounded.
At More., we create blends that merge ancient herbal wisdom with modern science so you can thrive with intention, no matter how chaotic life gets.
Tap into calm. Focus with clarity. Thrive with intention.
