What is an Adaptogen?
The term “adaptogen” was coined by Nikolai Vasiyevich Lazarev back in 1947.
While most things identified in nature help increase or decrease certain functions within the body, adaptogens are non-specific remedies “that increase resistance to a broad spectrum of harmful factors (stressors) of different physical, chemical, and biological natures”.
A more recent definition has also been used: “new class of metabolic regulators (of a natural origin) which increase the ability of an organism to adapt to environmental factors and to avoid damage from such factors.” (*)
