  • Vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid)

    Essential for proper cortisol regulation and adrenal function. It is also a cofactor for the NAT2 enzyme, which metabolizes histamine to acetyl histamine and eliminates it in the urine

  • Zinc

    Supports the healthy and normal functioning of cells responsible for immune response, inflammatory signaling, and oxidative stress. Aids in cortisol regulation and utilization of B vitamins.

  • Adaptogenic herbs and mushrooms

    Herbs such as ashwagandha root, rhodiola rosea, Siberian ginseng, American ginseng, and schisandra along with the mushroom cordyceps, belong to a category of medicinal plants known as adaptogens. The chemicals within these plants appear to support the body's natural ability to regulate the stress response. They also support overall balance and calibration of mood and energy.

  • Deglycyrrhizinated licorice (DGL) & Ginger

    In Chinese health practices, licorice and ginger are both known to support defensive Qi. Those needing adrenal support are often low in defensive Qi, or support a healthy immune system leaving them more susceptible to health issues.
