VÄXA Adapt^TM
Powerful Adaptogens in Liquid Extract Form

Discovered by Russian Scientists, adaptogens are specific plant extracts that help control excess cortisol levels during times of stress. Cortisol in excess amounts is highly toxic and attacks muscle mass and organs, lengthens recovery time, and can weaken the immune system. 

VÄXA Adapt is a liquid adaptogen blend of ten adaptogenic herbs in one formula. Adapt was designed to help you better "adapt" or manage stress as well as support optimal immune system health and maintain consistent energy levels. Since we now understand the extensive effects of cortisol on our body, it is understandable that managing your cortisol levels can support your overall health.

The ingredients in VÄXA Adapt naturally support the body's ability to:
 

• Help the body manage excess stress
• Aid stress-related fatigue
• Support proper immune system function
• Maintain focus and concentration
• Promote consistent energy levels and vitality
• Support physical performance
• Promote healthy functioning of adrenal glands
• Encourage normal sexual function
  
  To be considered an adaptogen, plant extracts have to meet three key criteria. First, they have to be totally non-toxic to human cells. Second, they must support cells at a healthy state. Lastly, they need to help the body adapt to stress. VÄXA Adapt provides an advanced blend of adaptogens. 

  How were Adaptogens Discovered?
  
  During the mid 1950's, the Soviet government chartered their Academy of Sciences with the task of developing a product that would enhance the performance of their elite athletes. The substance needed to support and normalize bodily function while also increasing resistance to stress. They studied, isolated, and interpreted many plants documenting their ultra potent benefits and astounding capabilities. The scientists decoded thousands of plants and found 10 rare plants in a far eastern Russian area called the Primorye that fit their goals. These plants provided the basis for achieving their three objectives as well as control the production of cortisol during times of stress. They coined the word Adaptogen for the plants that demonstrated those properties.
  
  How is Cortisol Produced?
  
  Stress. Stress triggers the adrenal glands secrete the hormone cortisol as a response to any kind of physical or psychological stress. Since stress is a daily part of our lives and for the most part unavoidable; we all have cortisol in our systems.
  
  How Is Adapt Taken?
  
  VÄXA Adapt is taken by placing two droppers full under the tongue, holding for 30 seconds and swallowing. This method assures quick and thorough absorption. Since Adapt is an extract in liquid form, it is absorbed sublingually and through the gut, so most people feel some effect within 10-15 minutes. There are no known side effects of Adapt, but you should not take this formula if you have had an organ transplant. If you are pregnant or nursing, or taking blood pressure or heart medication, consult a physician before taking Adapt.
