Vital Adapt®

Vital Adapt® is a nourishing broad spectrum herbal tonic designed to optimize the body’s natural resistance and adaptation to stressful influences, while promoting health, longevity and total well-being. It features potent extracts of many well-known adaptogenic botanicals including Eleuthrococcus, Rhodiola, Schizandra and Ashwagandha. The ingredients work synergistically to support healthy function of the body’s natural processes while providing vital energy and promoting hormonal balance.*

Eleuthero
Vital Adapt® contains a unique, clinically-researched extract of Eleuthero (Russian 1:1 concentrate) that has been proven to increase the body’s ability to withstand adverse physical conditions. Eleuthero is perhaps the most widely-researched adaptogenic herb, found to enhance job productivity, mental performance, concentration and alertness.*

Schisandra
Schisandra has a long history of use in China, Japan, Korea, Tibet and Russia. Vital Adapt® contains Schisandra seed extract in addition to the fruit extract. The seed extract is found to contain some of the most powerful adaptogenic compounds. The seed extract paired with the fruit extract offers the unique property of stimulating the central nervous system without causing over-excitation. This translates into a balanced, strong and enduring sense of mental and physical vitality.*

Rhodiola
Rhodiola is a popular adaptogenic tonic that promotes health and vitality. Rhodiola extract helps promote a calm emotional state and supports strong mental performance. It contains an assortment of constituents that encourage a healthy brain, optimal immune system function and hormonal balance. Used regularly, it enhances the body’s natural resistance and adaptation to stressful influences while promoting mental endurance and metabolic efficiency.*

Ashwagandha
Referred to as “Indian Ginseng,” Ashwagandha is revered in Ayurvedic medicine for its remarkable ability to promote mental and physical vitality and stamina. Ashwagandha promotes metabolic efficiency and a general sense of well-being when combined with the synergistic herbal ingredients found in Vital Adapt.*

Cordyceps and Reishi
These mushrooms are both highly regarded in Chinese medicine to nourish the kidney energy system and support adrenal function. Both Reishi and Cordyceps also help to protect the body when it is subject to environmental challenges.*

Green Tea and Turmeric
Green tea extract and Turmeric work together synergistically. Both of these valued traditional herbs help maintain and support healthy cellular function while providing protection against environmental stressors.*

Q. Can Vital Adapt be added to other beverages?

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

 
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. I see Vital 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 Vital 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.
