Goddess Chocolate Milk | Stress Relieving Adaptogenic Drinks
What we put into our body creates our physical reality.
I like to put beneficial things in my body, especially when on my mensies.
Your diet can impact bloating, inflammation, cramps, bleeding, cycle length, cycle regularity and more.
Adaptogens are a must for optimal health, in my opinion.
What are adaptogens?
Adaptogens increase the state of non-specific resistance in stress and decrease sensitivity to stressors, which results in stress protection, and prolong the phase of resistance (stimulatory effect). Instead of exhaustion, a higher level of equilibrium (the homeostasis) is attained the heterostasis.
Basically, adaptogens are certain herb or mushrooms thought to have health benefits.
My R&D has been a delicious endeavor.
