St. Francis Strest

• An ashwagandha-based formula that relieves symptoms of stress, restoring mental, emotional, and physical equilibrium

• Reduces mental and physical fatigue and anxiety

• Promotes a calm state of mind

• A formula without pharmaceutical equivalent

Who It’s For: Adults

Use For: Recovering motivation, energy levels, and well-being, as well as improving the ability to function effectively, especially under stress

How It Works: Features ashwagandha PLUS 5 other key adaptogenic herbs (holy basil, rhodiola, siberian ginseng, milky oat seed, and schisandra) that work in synergy to reduce anxiety, alleviate fatigue, and normalize the stress response. Strest makes for a powerful tonic that is vitally effective in helping you thrive in these modern times and cope with trials ranging from the pressures of your job, your daily commute, and pollution to a poor diet and a host of other factors. For stress relief, Strest, as a multi-herb formula, is likely more suitable than a single herb like ashwagandha for those experiencing a barrage of stress and anxiety symptoms and who are looking to benefit from a combination of herbal ingredients and their more energizing collective effect. On the other hand, ashwagandha, a single adaptogenic herb in tincture or capsule form, can be a more appropriate solution for those looking for a more calming effect, with sensitivities, or for whom certain herbal ingredients are contraindicated.
