Herbal Adaptogens: Modifying the Stress Response • Adaptogens are defined as non-toxic substances that have a normalizing effect on the body and elicit a non-specific response to stress and a wide variety of stressors. • This means that we can’t really sum up the action of the herb by describing a single, particular mechanism. • By normalizing the hormonal feedback signals associated with the HPA (hypothalamus, pituitary and adrenal glands) axis, adaptogens help enhance general resistance to stress, whether the stress is of physical, psychological, chemical, or biological origin. • At their core, adaptogens appear to normalize the functional response to stress, whether the response is excessive or deficient. This action is referred to as amphoteric. • Adaptogens usually have a balancing effect.
