Everyone really needs to be aware of this who has a very busy schedule caring for other people. And I thought about you!

Adaptogenic Herbs
Adaptogenic Herbs are arguably the most important Herbal Supplements in the world.
Adaptogenic Herbs have the ability to:
· Enhance the body and mind’s capacity to adapt optimally and accurately to changes in the environment.
· Increase endurance
· Reduce fatigue
· Stimulate the immune system indirectly
· Build the body’s resistance to non-specific stresses such as chemicals in the environment, overwork, poor diet, and emotional factors
· Boost immunity by supporting and balancing the endocrine (glandular) system
· Support adrenal functions
· Help cells to use oxygen more efficiently
· Increase cellular respiration
· Stimulate a specific white blood cell called a macrophage, which eats up or destroys pathogens in the blood, and is our first line of defense. Stimulating this aspect of our immune system protects us from colds, flu, and other types of infections.
HERE ARE THE ADAPTOGENIC HERBS IN THE XS ENERGY DRINK:
Panax Quinquefolium
Medicinal uses ranging from cancer fighter to an aphrodisiac for improving ADHD symptoms.
Eleutheroccocus Senticosus (Siberian Ginseng)
Used for stress, nervousness and irritability. Counteracts exhaustion, insomnia and mild depression. Improves endurance and energy metabolism for performance. Improves cerebral cortical functions. Sensory motor reaction times are shortened and there is a decrease in mistakes while distinguishing positive from negative signals. Reduces general sickness. Normalizes the weights of the Thyroid and Adrenal glands (usually shrink under stress) and eliminates any evidence of stress upon the functions of these glands.
Panax Ginseng
Most noted for its anti-aging and anti-fatigue effects. Appears to have some anti-tumor effects. Enhances overall immunity including antibody response, natural killer cell activity, interferon production, and promotes phagocytosis. Has shown some ability to protect the body during radiation therapy.
Echinacea Purpurea
Considered to be antibacterial, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, astringent, carminative, diaphoretic, depurative, a digestive tonic, an immune stimulant, and vulnerary.
Schisandra
Shown to have a stimulatory effect on the central nervous system without being over stimulating. Is considered a general tonic, a detoxifier of chemical toxicity including chemotherapy. Is an antioxidant and a powerful liver protector.
Astragalus
Has been used in China for thousands of years. Increases the total number of white blood cells. Strengthens the activity of macrophages. Promotes cellular immunity. Currently, Astragalus is being researched in HIV and AIDS related symptoms.
Reishi
A medicinal mushroom used for over 4000 years in China and Japan. Used in the treatment of hepatitis, cancer, hypertension, arthritis, insomnia, asthma, bronchitis, and ulcers. Pharmacological effects include analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antioxidant, anti-tumor, antiviral, cardiotonic, expectorant, liver protective, and have been shown to increase production of interleukin 1 and 2, increase white cell count, and enhance natural killer cell activity.
Amino Acids
Taurine
Inadequate levels of Taurine are common in those with chemical sensitivities, allergies, and poor diets. It is the major amino acid required by the liver for removal of toxic chemicals and metabolites from the body. Helpful for fatty liver, high blood pressure and cholesterol, gall bladder problems, alcohol withdrawal, hepatitis and jaundice. Helps the liver excrete excessive cholesterol out of the body through bile, thus, is an aid to weight control and cardiovascular health.
Tyrosine
Boosts neurotransmitter levels. Boosting effect upon the production of thyroid hormone, which can help metabolism. Excellent antidepressant for those with sluggish metabolism and excess weight.
Glutamine
Required for phase two detoxification in the liver. Required in increased amount by those who consume excessive alcohol. Able to reduce alcohol craving. Helpful for intestinal disorders such as peptic ulcers and conditions of the lining of the bowel. Used as fuel by the brain and by the white blood cells. Is essential for the lymphocytes to fight viruses such as hepatitis B & C.
Sweetener
Ace-K (Acesulfame Potassium)
Non-caloric, non-cariogenic (does not promote tooth decay), non-nutritive sweetener that delivers powerful, great-tasting sweetness (approximately 200 times as sweet as sucrose). Preferred because its sweet taste is perceived quickly, does not linger, and does not persist longer than the taste of the product. It provides excellent sugar-like taste. For more information visit Interview with Dr. Laszlo Somogyi, Ph.D. http://www.20countdown.com/gr24u/somogyi.html.
Caffeine
XS has the same amount of caffeine as you would get in a strong cup of coffee.
To clarify the wording on the can, “Not recommended for persons sensitive to caffeine”;
If someone is sensitive to caffeine we would recommend the Tropical Blast caffeine free version.
