Adaptogens

---

We love adaptogens and they have a lot in common with crystals so we had to pair the two.  An adaptogen is a healing herb that people have used in traditional medicine for centuries and has 3 powerful characteristics:

1. Not toxic to the recipient

2. Produces an increase in the power of resistance against multiple stressors

3. Has a normalizing influence on the mind and body 

Adaptogens are safe, plant-based superherbs that reduce the body’s response to stress and overall health by normalizing the body and regulating hormones.  Simply put, they are plants that are able to help balance, restore and protect the body, specifically promoting overall cell and adrenal health.  Adaptogens support your adrenal glands which produce hormones that help the body control blood sugar, reduce sugar cravings, burn protein and fat, react to stressors like a major illness or injury, and regulate blood pressure. 

Adaptogens act in the same fashion as crystals do, healing misalignment and bringing unstable energy back to a healthy and balanced state.  We came up with a very effective combination of ethically sourced adaptogens for Rock Grace that compliment each other, provide an extensive list of benefits,  and are tested for premium quality.

RHODIOLA

Known as the golden root, Rhodiola has a delicate rose flavor and promotes energy, strength, fat-burning, endurance, and physical and mental performance.  Rhodiola has been shown to help regulate your body’s production of cortisol, your primary stress hormone, resulting in stress relief.   Too much cortisol can deplete your nutrient reserves, impair memory, and have damaging effects on your blood pressure, blood sugar, and metabolism. 

ELEUTHERO

Also called Siberian Ginseng, Eleuthero increases endurance, reduces fatigue, relieves anxiety and depression, helps your body adapt to stress, supports adrenal health, and  aids recovery from stress burnout.

SCHISANDRA BERRY

Known as the five flavor berry for its five distinct flavors (sweet, sour, salty, bitter, umami) and harmonizing tonic, Schisandra Berry relieves anxiety, provides powerful antioxidant protection, and detoxifies the liver.  Traditionally used to strengthen the immune system, reduce inflammation, and increase vitality, Schisandra Berry is also used as a powerful herb for fertility, reproductive, and sexual health. 

The herbs we use are extracted in small batches with a delicate process that optimizes for potency and maintains the balance of phytochemicals as they exist in the plant. Rock Grace Original and Sparkling contain all three adaptogens and the only adaptogen in Rock Grace Ruby is Eleuthero.
