The Science Behind the Formula
Stress Adaptation
Ashwagandha (KSM-66®) is the most clinically studied ashwagandha extract available. It is classified as an adaptogen—a natural substance traditionally used in Ayurvedic practice to help the body adjust to physical and emotional stress while promoting balance and resilience. At 400mg per serving, this is a meaningful clinical dose.
Energy and Vitality
Cordyceps mushroom has been prized in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries for its role in supporting stamina and oxygen utilisation. Combined with Panax ginseng—one of the most well-known adaptogens globally—and Peruvian maca root, traditionally used to support vitality and endurance, this trio delivers comprehensive energy support without stimulants.
Vitamin B12 (at 1000% NRV) and Vitamin B6 (143% NRV) contribute to normal energy-yielding metabolism and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Pantothenic acid (B5) contributes to normal mental performance.
Cognitive and Mental Performance
Vitamin B6, Vitamin B12, and Niacin (B3) all contribute to normal psychological function. Schisandra chinensis is traditionally valued for its potential role in supporting focus and memory. Together with the adaptogenic botanicals, this formula supports mental clarity throughout the day.
Immune and Nervous System Support
Reishi mushroom, combined with turmeric and the essential B vitamins, supports normal immune function and a healthy nervous system. Vitamin B6 specifically contributes to the regulation of hormonal activity and to the normal function of the immune system. Vitamin B12 contributes to normal red blood cell formation.
Enhanced Absorption
Black pepper (52mg) contains piperine, which is widely included in supplement formulas for its role in supporting nutrient absorption and bioavailability.
