I notice a clear difference when I'm taking this supplement. This probably helps me cope with emotional stress as much as my antidepressant does, and in fact has allowed me to reduce my dosage. I seem to be able to exercise more without minor niggles holding me back. I can drink twice as much coffee without getting jitters. (I think it probably reduces the stimulant properties a bit, as well. I believe this is a known effect of one of the ingredients, though I don't recall which off the top of my head. But the included theanine is a stimulant.) To those who do not feel this working, make sure you follow the recommendation to take it relatively early in your day with some food for maximum benefit. Some of the active substances are fat soluble and hence best absorbed in the presence of some dietary fat. This can be difficult if you don't eat breakfast or if you intermittent fast with a late eating window, in which case you may want to consume just a few grams of fat, which shouldn't affect blood sugar. Just a teaspoon of MCT oil in your coffee should be more than enough.

I have tried so many adaptogens and never really felt any support. I am pretty sensitive to ginsengs, especially Asian ginseng, so I thought I would try this one with American ginseng. American ginseng is usually milder. One capsule was too much for me to start with, I was getting a little amped up. So I dumped the capsule and divided it into 3 servings. So 1/3 capsule felt great, then I went up to 1/2 capsule and finally now I am at a whole capsule. This definitely works for me. If my adrenals are triggered and I take a capsule, I definitely notice a difference. My system feels totally supported, and stress has been handled. For people that are really sensitive to stimulants, I would recommend this one over Asian Ginseng, as that one really ramps me up. With this product, my body is getting stronger. The ginseng has a building quality. At some point soon, I will work up to 2 a day. One in the morning and one in the early afternoon.

Good product, husband uses it and likes it. He keeps ordering it so he must like it

Bought this not really sure what it is for. Someone else recommend it to me.

I truly didn't believe it but it definitely works! I am not a supplement snob but I definitely can tell which brands are my favorite, adding this one to the bunch is a no brainier. I could not believe the calm I feel throughout my incredibly stressful sometimes 10-12 work days and I sleep through the night without issue. I am so grateful I discovered this brand and these supplements, now definitely an adaptogen believer!!

I'm on my second bottle of this and it has WORKED WONDERS for me! I have no plumbing down there so to find something that controls the hot flashes and night sweats for me is HUGE! If you're thinking about getting this product just DO IT! 😁 You won't regret it!

BEWARE! I PURCHASED THIS PRODUCT 9 PREVIOUS TIMES, AND ON THE 10TH PURCHASE, I RECEIVED THE BOTTLE , WITH A WARNING STICKER PASTED ON IT (SHOWN IN THE PHOTOS IN THIS REVIEW) STATING "WARNING: CONSUMING THIS PRODUCT CAN EXPOSE YOU TO CHEMICALS INCLUDING LEAD, WHICH IS KNOWN TO THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA TO CAUSE CANCER AND BIRTH DEFECTS OR OTHER REPRODUCTIVE HARM." THIS COMPANY DOES NOT STATE ANYTHING REGARDING THE LEAD EXPOSURE IN THE PRODUCT INFORMATION ANYWHERE, AND THERE WAS NO MENTION OF IT IN THE COURSE OF MY PREVIOUS PURCHASES. WHEN I WENT TO RETURN THE PRODUCT, IT IS NOT A RETURNABLE ITEM AS IT IS CONSIDERED A CONSUMABLE/"FOOD" PRODUCT, INELIGIBLE FOR RETURN . I WOULD NEVER HAVE CONSCIOUSLY PUT THIS IN BODY HAD I BEEN AWARE OF THIS INFORMATION. I AM SHOCKED. TO EACH HIS/HER OWN, BUT I WILL NEVER PURCHASE THIS PRODUCT OR FROM THIS COMPANY AGAIN.

I have been taken this for over three years and has made a different in my body and mind.
