These adaptogens are incorporated into food or beverages or consumed in the form of tinctures to support various aspects of health and alleviate stress-related conditions.

Adaptogens can be classified into two main types based on their nature such as organic and synthetic. Organic adaptogens are naturally derived from plants or herbs, such as ashwagandha, astragalus, eleuthero, holy basil, jiaogulan, turmeric, cordyceps, among others. They are cultivated without the use of chemicals or fertilizers during their farming process. These organic adaptogens are sourced from various sources such as ashwagandha, ginseng, astragalus, holy basil, rhodiola rosea, schisandra, adaptogenic mushrooms, and others. They are distributed through both online and offline sales channels. These adaptogens find applications in food and beverages, dietary and sports supplements, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and animal feed industries.
