Adrenal Support

In the East, rejuvenative of longevity therapies have an ancient tradition. There are tonics for increasing stamina and for regenerating tissues that are worn out. There are also simple supplementation possibilities for those who are deficient in one or more nutrients. Chyawanprash is an Ayurvedic tonic that promotes deeper assimilation of nutrients. It is also a magnificent source of vitamin C and the world's best anti-oxidant.

 

 

Recovery is an energy tonic that tonifies the "Yin" or the "Water" aspect of the Kidneys. The Kidneys rule both Water (Yin) and Fire (Yang). Without properly nourished water, the body can become dry and feel hot. This can manifest in ways such as dry tongue, thirst, dry skin, brittle bones, dry hair, and the inability to age gracefully. The Yin of the body is one of the most important aspects to nourish because Yin is easily depleted. Recovery is an excellent tonic and can be taken over prolonged periods of time.

 

Loss of stamina due to stress or trauma is addressed by increasing the potential for coping with stress and eliminating the causes of stress. Chinese kidney yin tonics gradually augment the margins for handling stress. Of these, my favorite is Jatoba.
