ADAPTOGENS:
If you’re not familiar, “adaptogens” are a class of plants and fungi that have been utilized for thousands of years to help the body adapt to stress and overcome challenges.
While that track record is inspiring, we decided to dive deeper into the science behind these plants.
It turns out that adaptogens promote homeostasis, your natural state of peace and health. They do this by supporting your body’s “HPA Axis.” This critical part of your nervous system is the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal Axis.
The HPA Axis regulates stress hormones like cortisol and an array of nervous system functions. When your HPA Axis is under-nourished anxiety, stress, and fight or flight instincts take over.
SUPERFOODS:
Some foods are so powerful, so packed with nutrients, that they deserve their own classification: Superfoods.
Gymnos Performance Blends are packed with verified superfoods like chia seeds, chlorella, green coffee bean extract and others.
If you didn't know, antioxidants purge the body of “free radicals.”
What are free radicals and why are they dangerous?
Simple explanation: free radicals are damaged oxygen-containing molecules that are missing an electron. So they steal them from your body’s healthy cells and cause all kinds of havoc. Think of free radicals like rust in your blood!
That’s why “anti-oxidants” are so popular and important today. They preserve healthy tissue and prevent the breakdown of cells throughout your body.
By including precision-doses of superfoods, like chlorella and chia seeds, you can significantly reduce your risk of heart disease, inflammation, cancer, arthritis, and many other crippling diseases.
