Power Adapt®

Power Adapt® is a potent energy tonic designed to build strength and stamina while promoting a healthy stress response, particularly when the body is under physical stress. An extra-strength adaptogenic formula, Power Adapt® features a blend of herbal extracts that work together to maximize the benefits of physical exercise. The botanical ingredients encourage healthy endocrine function by providing nourishment to the spleen, kidneys and adrenal glands, which results in the energy boost necessary to support a healthy anabolic state.*

Panax ginseng
Panax ginseng has been revered in Asia for thousands of years as an herbal elixir and restorative tonic that promotes longevity. In modern times, Panax ginseng is known as an adaptogenic herb that supports healthy energy levels, increases muscular strength, optimizes immune function and promotes the body’s healthy removal of cellular waste.*

Leuzea
Leuzea (Rhaponticum carthamoides) is an adaptogenic herb that possesses a wide spectrum of anabolic action. Its unique anabolic properties include the formation of protein, glycogen and fats. It increases physical performance and speeds recovery from muscle fatigue after exercise by building lean muscle mass and by increasing blood supply to the muscles and brain. Rhaponticum increases stress resistance, optimizes energy levels and protects cells from free radical damage. The principle constituents of the whole plant are ecdisteroids and flavonoids.*

Pantokrin™
Pantokrin™ is a humanely-harvested, highly-purified aqueous extract of deer antlers. It has an impressive and comprehensive profile that includes collagen, amino acids, essential fatty acids, minerals, trace minerals and functional proteins that are essential for healthy metabolic function. Pantokrin improves work capacity, strength and stamina and helps decrease muscle fatigue. It is an excellent blood-fortifying tonic that increases the production of red and white blood cells and supports the body’s natural healing process and recovery after exercise.*

Aralia
Aralia manchurica, a well-known adaptogenic herb, supports healthy glucose balance and immune system function while maintaining stamina and cognitive function. Aralia’s most powerful actions include its ability to improve work capacity and support energy, vitality and long-term memory.*

Cordyceps
This time-revered Chinese remedy is known for its deep adrenal support and ability to support endurance, vitality and optimized energy levels. In this way, Cordyceps sinensis works synergistically with the other primary adaptogens in this formula. Cordyceps also promotes a balanced and healthy immune system.*

Q. What is the difference between Vital Adapt and Power Adapt?

A. Vital Adapt is a broad spectrum revitalizing formula that improves stress protection, supports healthy endocrine function, and promotes wellness and longevity. It is designed to increase energy without being excitatory or stimulating. This nourishing formula is generally well-suited for all ages, constitutions and states of health.  From a TCM perspective this formula would nourish ‘yin’, which means it is ideal as a balancing tonic for individuals who are prone to excess heat (excessive sweating, hot flashes), “Type A” personality, hyper-active, and other signs of a hot constitution.     

Power Adapt is an extra strength energy tonic that maximizes stress resistance.  Providing deep endocrine support, Power Adapt elevates physical and mental performance, nourishes the blood, and exerts an anabolic/anti-catabolic effect.  It is indicated for resuscitation from exhaustion and for athletes or highly active people desiring peak physical performance. From a TCM perspective this formula would nourish ‘yang’, which means it is ideal as a balancing tonic for individuals who tend to have difficulty staying warm, have poor circulation, a more quiet/timid personality, fatigue, and other signs of a cold constitution.

Q. Can Power Adapt be added to other liquids?

A. Yes, in addition to be taken straight, all of Natura’s liquid tinctures can be added to water, juice, tea or smoothie.
 

Q. I see Power Adapt has licorice in it, and I’m concerned about it elevating my blood pressure.

A. Licorice has a long history in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that goes back thousands of years. It is found in over half of their traditional formulas. As in TCM, licorice in Natura formulations is used primarily as a harmonizing agent, helping to create synergy between the formulas constituents. The amount of licorice utilized is very small, generally composing 2-3% of the formula. Used as directed, this delivers a dosage of glycyrrhizic acid that is far below the threshold known to induce blood pressure elevation.

Q. I noticed Power Adapt contains grain alcohol. Does that mean it contains gluten?

A. No. Pure grain alcohol does not contain any gluten. Grain alcohol is produced through a distillation process; therefore, when the alcohol is distilled, it is completely separated from any grain used to produce it during fermentation. Alcohol is volatile, which means it becomes a gas when heated during the distillation process. Once transformed, the alcohol molecules enter a curved distillation tube, the molecules cool, and then condense back into purified liquid alcohol. The alcohol then drains out into a sterile vessel for collection. It is impossible for any trace of gluten to make this journey. Gluten is incapable of becoming a gas; therefore, it is left behind with all other non-volatile materials utilized in the distillation process.
