- The safety and effective doses of adaptogens
- The long history of adaptogen use in other cultures
- The different names of common adaptogens, including ashwaganda,
holy basil, turmeric, ginseng and rhodiola
- The different classifications of adaptogens — primary,
secondary and complimentary
To round out my interview, Vicki urges listeners to look into
the various adaptogens they’re interested in, in greater detail and
reminds us that because these are all herbs they’re also a good way
to increase plants in our diet. (Note: For a comprehensive
discussion of plant-based diets, listen
to my interview with Sharon Palmer, RD in The Game Changers Movie
Episode.)
During the commercial break, I preview my new Fasting + Food
program I recently developed with fellow dietitian, Danielle Omar. Fasting + Food is a 4-day
food-assisted fast and metabolic reset. To learn more about it,
visit thisunmillenniallife.com/fasting, where
you can also download a FREE GUIDE to Fasting for Longevity.
To end the episode, I share the names of the winners of
the Nature
Nate’s $50 Visa Gift card and give a brief overview of
some of the “sweet stories” shared with me as a part of the
giveaway.
