Not everyone drinks alcohol, whether due to personal choice, health reasons, religious beliefs, or age restrictions. Many people prioritise their health and well-being by opting for non-alcoholic beverages. Providing these options encourages healthier choices and supports individuals in maintaining their wellness goals.

 

People have diverse tastes and preferences. Offering a range of non-alcoholic beverages caters to those who may simply prefer the taste or experience of a non-alcoholic option. Non-alcoholic adaptogen drinks are an elusive third drink, not for hydration or caffeination, but for stress-melting bliss. Adaptogen drinks boast potent plant ingredients that humans have relied on for millennia to restore internal harmony, fortify the immune system, and uplift the spirits.

 

With COVID-19 reshaping perspectives on health, individuals are now more conscious and deliberate in their approach to personal well-being. Nowadays people are more interested in seeking alternative, natural remedies as they resonate with individuals seeking holistic health solutions.

 

Adaptogens have surged in popularity across the food and beverage industry, catching the eye of health-conscious individuals. What's their secret? In essence, these are specific herbs and mushrooms that offer various health and wellness benefits, particularly in stress management. Their incorporation into food and drink items is becoming increasingly prevalent, expanding beyond traditional forms like powders and capsules.

 

Understanding Herbal Adaptogens

Herbal adaptogens serve multiple purposes that include enhancing attention, boosting endurance in fatigued states, reducing stress-related diseases and impairments, enhancing physical stamina, strength, and energy levels, addressing sexual dysfunction, restoring cognitive performance affected by stress, and regulating cortisol (the stress hormone) and other hormone levels. A 2021 report published in the journal Nutrients showed that plant adaptogens could provide a number of benefits in the treatment of chronic fatigue, cognitive impairment, and immune protection. 

• Herbal adaptogens are non-toxic and induce minimal alterations in an organism's physiological functions.
• Their effects are broad, promoting resilience against various physical, chemical, and biological stressors.
• Regardless of the prior pathogenic changes, adaptogens exert a normalising influence.
