Cymbiotika’s Adrenal Super Tonic

Summer is here which for most people means it’s time to kick back and relax, but for me, running a small business and an international dog rescue, well… life feels extra busy with so so so much to do. While I know I won’t be having a carefree Summer like everyone else, I at least wanted to find something that might help lighten the load, naturally, of course! Thankfully, I did find something that I do love and feel is super effective so I will share it below!

Because 2022 is the year of total healing for me, my self-care regimen is something I’m pretty dedicated to, now more than ever! I start my mornings slow with sunshine to my bare eyes and I try to get outside for walks as often as possible for healthy movement. I have a healthy breakfast and then, I begin supplementing pretty much for the rest of the day because, in this day and age, we all need supplements and yes, even in addition to a healthy diet!

Even if you eat an all-organic, plant-forward diet, our soil just isn’t what it used to be so the foods themselves don’t have all the nutrients our bodies need. This is a huge issue that many do not discuss and one of the main reasons why supplementation is SO key, however, not all supplements are created equal so I really research the brands I do carry because, we only want the best, right!?

Meet Cymbiotika. This supplement company is dedicated to creating products that fill those unavoidable nutritional gaps and they have a beyond-impressive selection of supplements to choose from. Their strategy is to get to the root of different issues and not just treat the surface symptoms which is something that I personally love too. To truly heal, we must always find the root cause!

So, what is a likely root cause for a bad mood or high stress? You guessed it- overworked adrenal glands.

Your adrenal glands secrete hormones which means that they are major players when it comes to your mood and stress levels. I know, first hand, that with my stress load I need a LOT of support. Adrenals regulate things like serotonin, oxytocin, and cortisol. And of course, they are in charge of your flight or fight response.

Most of the time, our bodies are able to handle moments of stress. We might feel a burst of cortisol, where our heart rate picks up, our blood pumps a bit faster and we feel hyper-focused on what lies ahead, but then, we settle back down to our baseline. But sometimes, we go through times where we are so stressed and anxious that we are maybe even waking up in the night with our minds racing.

While anxiety and sleep disturbances can happen for a number of reasons, chances are if you can’t settle down, if you feel “wired or tired” or if you just can’t sleep soundly, perhaps your cortisol levels are just a little too high for your body to process as quickly as it would normally.

And lowering serum cortisol is something that Cymbiotika’s Adrenal Super Tonic is all about.

Why It Works So Well for Stress

This magical stress tonic is loaded with ingredients that really help me have a more peaceful day. It contains Ashwagandha, which is an adaptogen that works to prevent a spike in hormones and assists your body in recovering after a moment of stress or anxiety. In more simple terms, Ashwagandha will help support the body to stay more balanced throughout your day.

Lavender oil is also a key player here, shown to be an effective anxiolytic or anti-anxiety compound. I am obsessed with all things Lavender simply because of its calming effects. Turmeric is also in this tonic, known for lowering inflammation and soothing our system as a whole.

Turmeric is all about lowering inflammation and soothing our system as a whole. Moringa is commonly known as “The Miracle Tree” which sounds promising on its own, right? But the studies back up the name. It has a long list of compounds that protect our cardiovascular system and also help to regulate thyroid hormone production. Additionally, it contains quercetin and a high dose of antioxidants. Rose geranium is an effective anti-inflammatory that may offer lymphatic support. And with an added bonus, they have antiviral and antimicrobial properties too.

Guava extract is a natural source of bioactive compounds like polyphenols, vitamin c, floats, and beta carotenes. It has antioxidant enzymes that protect against oxidative damage. It contains potassium which works to counteract sodium and can aid in lowering blood pressure.

Tulsi or holy basil is another adaptogen that works to calm your system and offers relaxation and stress relief. It has been tested in a number of studies involving patients with anxiety disorders, stress, depression, and inattention with positive outcomes. And other herbs like rosemary and lemon myrtle are ready to deliver nutrients and phytochemicals to your body, and the more nutrients your body has to use, the better your overall function will be. This tonic is great to keep on hand when life starts to get hectic.

How I Take This

I personally take this directly out of the pump, simply remove the cap and pump 12 pumps into my mouth. You can also place this onto a spoon or into a drink or smoothie! It’s also pretty tasty in a cup with ice and some sparkling water or tea! Yum.

Taste-wise- this has a very botanical, floral, fruity taste! Think lavender meets Citrus? I wouldn’t say that it is “tasty” by any means but it’s not hard to take and does have an overall pleasant taste. If you have been a little more stressed, are feeling anxious, or simply are having a hard time getting quality sleep, give this tonic a try!

As always, consult your doctor when it comes to choosing supplements that work best for you. Want to give this a try? Head on over to my website now to view all of the Cymbiotika items!

  1. This is really fantastic. As a 56 year old woman I’ve been needing some good adrenal support. I’m going to try this! Thank you.

  2. That’s wonderful tonic for relaxing from stress

  3. Thanks for posting this on your blog, Amanda. Making the decision to get off of IG was right for me for so many reasons, but you’re one of the ones I miss the most due to your content. So, thank you!

    I’m going through some major life changes atm, including escaping California, which involved selling our house and moving my husband into our new house across the country while I finish my job in CA and can join him, while we are apart for months.

    Of course all that causes more than the usual stress and my Oura Ring showed it. My “readiness score” had been in the toilet for months. After reading this post I immediately ordered it, and after only two uses my Oura Ring “readiness score” had a ‘crown’ (IYKYK). It has continued to stay high, which is a good thing. My doubting thomas husband got some, and he had the same results.

    I cannot speak more highly of this product. I’m not a fan of anything lavender that you consume and I think I am hyper-aware of when it is in a product you ingest, but I power through it and we both remind each other to “take your ‘perfume syrup'”. LOL

    I think everyone should take this product. We all need that added chill factor promoted in our bodies.

    1. wow thats a great testimonial, I love it too!
