Once you've checked that the cause of your fatigue is not medical, you can turn to phytotherapy. Ginseng, eleutherococcus, guarana, nettle, rhodiola, sea buckthorn... depending on the cause of your fatigue, different plants may be suitable.
Fatigue, whether temporary or persistent, is a common phenomenon that can affect all aspects of daily life: productivity, mood and general well-being. When it has no identified medical cause (such as anaemia, hypothyroidism or other pathology), phytotherapy can offer a natural and effective response to restore your vitality.
Thanks to the specific properties of medicinal plants, it's possible to boost energy, strengthen the body's defenses and improve resistance to stress. Discover our new range of phytotherapeutic products, specially designed to combat fatigue and revitalize your body.
We're talking here about the kind of sleep you wake up tired of. Its architecture, an alternation of cycles, is disrupted. Lemon balm, a regulating plant, gently acts on the most sedative of neurotransmitters (GABA), to help you wake up refreshed. It contains soothing active ingredients, as well as stimulating rosmarinic acid and tonicardiac triterpenes.
Rhodiola is a small plant found in extremely cold climates. Its underground parts contain a neuroprotective and anti-stress active ingredient (salidroside), as well as an adaptogen (rosavin). In addition to its stimulating effect on our memory and attention capacities, the plant increases levels of serotonin and especially dopamine, the neurotransmitter of pleasure, which helps us rediscover the desire and impetus for new projects.
A slight loss of fitness, especially at the change of season, is the perfect time to start a nettle regimen. Its leaves contain amino acids, minerals, flavonoids, anti-inflammatory acids - in short, detoxifying and invigorating active ingredients. Nettle combats both iron deficiency and inflammation, a source of fatigue and premature aging.
Ginseng is a major general anti-fatigue plant because it boosts all functions, especially the immune system. Another solution is blackcurrant buds, which can also be given to children. Revitalizes the gland.
Camu is a champion for boosting vitamin C intake (50 times more concentrated than oranges). It also contains multiple flavonoids that prevent its breakdown, for a winning duo.
Other energy-boosting solutions include sea buckthorn juice or syrup, which gives a boost thanks to its minerals, vitamins and polyphenols, and spirulina, rich in amino acids (muscle building blocks) and minerals, particularly indicated for sports recovery.
Native to the Amazon, guarana is the most caffeine-rich plant known, far ahead of mate, cola or green tea. Its purple-brown seeds, packed with active ingredients, are the source of its immediate and short-term psychostimulant properties. Through its caffeine, guarana is also diuretic, lipolytic (it "dissolves" cellulite) and cardiotonic.
Feeling tired? How can you help? Why not turn to phytotherapy for a more appropriate way of getting into shape? The pressures of work and family life often border on overwork. How can we overcome this fatigue inherent to the urban world? The most interesting aspect (as is often the case with phytotherapy) lies in prevention, particularly with regard to overwork, diet and illness. Fouling will also benefit enormously from the curative aspect, especially for getting rid of all the everyday poisons we can't escape (mercury, aluminium, hydrocarbons....).
How can we boost our bodies so as not to break down? As well as challenging certain lifestyle habits, herbal treatments can help you get over the hump. Some of the plants suggested to combat fatigue are so-called " adaptogens" (ginseng, eleutherococcus, rhodiola), i.e., they help the body to respond to the aggressions and imbalances to which it is subjected. Others contain stimulants, particularly caffeine. They can be found in the form of medicines or extracts. Acerola, coffee, eleutherococcus, fenugreek, royal jelly, ginger, ginseng, goji, maca, spirulina, tribulus... These are just some of the plant names with revitalizing effects you're probably familiar with.
