It often creeps into our everyday lives unnoticed: deadlines, being constantly available, a heavy workload – our modern lives demand a lot from our bodies and minds. What many people underestimate: Persistent stress can have a negative impact on our general well-being.
There are ways to support the body in a natural way – for example with adaptogenic medicinal mushrooms, which have been valued in traditional herbal medicine for centuries.
The term adaptogen comes from the Latin “adaptare” – meaning “to adapt”. Adaptogens are plant substances that are traditionally used to support the body during periods of increased stress. The aim is to support inner balance as part of a healthy lifestyle.
Vital mushrooms such as reishi, cordyceps or hericium are among the best-known adaptogenic mushrooms. They contain bioactive substances such as polysaccharides and beta-glucans, which have been valued in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and Ayurvedic applications for centuries.
When the body is exposed to stress, stress reactions are triggered via the so-called HPA system (hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis). In traditional Asian medicine, adaptogenic medicinal mushrooms are used to support the body during stressful phases and promote general well-being.
But beware: they are no substitute for a healthy lifestyle, relaxation and stress management. Even the best medicinal mushroom cannot “adapt” an 80-hour week.
Rather, they serve as natural companions in phases of high stress – supporting, strengthening and regulating. They offer a natural way to provide targeted support for well-being.
