Kindroot: What Are Adaptogems?

by Better

Kindroot is a California based company that was founded in 2019 by the brilliant Alisa Pospekhova (CEO & Founder) after years and years of failed, "travel mishaps with messy supplement powders and capsules that felt like a chore," in her own words. And it all clicked when she, "saw a world where i could create a supplement that people would actually look forward to taking," as she said after creating her line of functional "adaptogems".

 

So what are adaptogems?

It's a combination of two things:

  • adaptogens = special class of plants and mushrooms that help your body balance while adapting to and resisting negative effects of stress.

  • adaptogems™ = smooth little lozenges that blend adaptogens and other actives with delicious aromatic flavors.

Brilliant, am I right?

 

The superstars involved...

  • Ashwagandha KSM-66®

A popular ayurvedic herb and one of Kindroot's favorite adaptogens (they use it in two of their blends), ashwagandha has been shown to relax and promote calmness while encouraging rejuvenation.

  • Reishi

Revered for over 2000 years, the so-called "immortality mushroom" in traditional chinese medicine, reishi is a powerful adaptogen that can help reduce stress and elevate mood.

  • Maca

This mighty adaptogenic root helps maintain positive levels of energy and mental well-being by reducing feelings of unease.

  • Schisandra

Pretty and bright adaptogenic antioxidant berries traditionally used to boost concentration and mental alertness.

A member of the mint family, this herb helps support brain health and cognition.

  • Marine Collagen

Essential to hair, skin and nails and naturally abundant in our bodies, marine collagen peptides (from fish) promote youthfulness.
