Adaptogens, Antioxidant, Anti-inflammatory, Cognitive function, Immunomodulation, Neuroprotection, StressAbstract
Adaptogens, a class of natural substances derived primarily from plants, have gained significant attention for their potential to enhance human health and performance. These compounds are believed to help the body adapt to stress, improve cognitive function, boost immunomodulation and promote overall well-being. This review article is aimed to discuss the diverse world of adaptogens, exploring their historical use, mechanisms of action and scientific evidence supporting their efficacy. A range of adaptogens will be examined and discussed, including well-known examples like Withania somnifera (Ashwagandha), Rhodiola rosea and Panax ginseng, as well as lesser known but promising candidates. The highlights of the key potential benefits of adaptogens in various health conditions, such as anxiety, depression, fatigue and cognitive decline will be addressed. Additionally, the critical evaluation of the available scientific evidence will be mentioned, highlighting the need for rigorous clinical trials to further validate the claims surrounding adaptogens. By synthesizing information from diverse references, including traditional medicine, modern pharmacology and clinical research, this review aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of adaptogens and their potential applications in promoting human health and performance.
