Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera), Siberian ginseng (Eleutherococcus senticosus), Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) and Rhodiola (Rhodiola rosea) are herbs known for their adaptogenic and calming properties, and that mediate the effects of stress and fatigue. Adaptogens induce stress protective benefits, mediated through regulation of homeostasis via several mechanisms of action associated with the hypothalamicpituitary-adrenal axis. Ashwagandha has been found to limit the production of dopamine and other hormones in response to stress and also acts as a GABA receptor agonist, all which have the effect of reducing the overall stress response. Siberian ginseng root contains eleutherosides known to have antifatigue and antistress effects, as well as immunomodulatory effects, and clinically has been shown to have therapeutic efficacy for chronic fatigue, stress and to improve athletic performance. Lavender’s traditional use to promote calmness and improve mood was recently verified in a detailed doubleblind clinical trial.1 Sereni-Pro uses a non-estrogenic water-soluble extract of lavender. Rhodiola rosea has been clinically shown to improve attention, cognitive function and mental performance, decrease the cortisol response to stress and to exert an antifatigue affect.
