Description
Welcome back to the Iron Sights Podcast! In this episode, I sat down with the typical team at Red Dot Fitness in addition to one of our fitness coaches, Stephan Brenna. In this episode we discuss Adaptogenic herbs and their benefits. The focus of this episode is on: Ashwagandha, Rhodiola and Ginseng.Ashwagandha is a popular adaptogenic herb that has been used in Ayurvedic medicine for centuries. It is believed to help the body adapt to stress, improve cognitive function, and boost immunity. Some studies have also shown that ashwagandha may have anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor effects.Rhodiola is an adaptogenic herb that is native to the cold, mountainous regions of Europe and Asia. It has traditionally been used to increase physical and mental endurance, reduce fatigue, and improve mood. Some research suggests that rhodiola may also have anti-anxiety and antidepressant effects.Ginseng is another well-known adaptogenic herb that has been used in traditional medicine for centuries. It is believed to help the body adapt to stress, improve cognitive function, and boost immunity. Some studies have also shown that ginseng may have anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor effects, and may be useful in the management of diabetes. There are several different types of ginseng, including Asian ginseng (Panax ginseng) and American ginseng (Panax quinquefolius), which have slightly different properties.Red Dot Fitness Training Programs: https://www.rdftrainonline.comOnline membership (Full Access To All Programs & Virtual Coaching):https://www.reddotfitness.net/online-membershipVirtual Coaching:https://www.reddotfitness.net/virtual-coachingSelf-Guided Programs:https://www.reddotfitness.net/Self-Guided-Programs1Connect With Us:Website - https://ironsightspodcast.com/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ironsightspodcast/TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@ironsightspodcast
