Are you suffering from chronic fatigue, anxiety, digestive, or autoimmune issues? Or are you seeking a simple way to bring whole-body health into your life with a food that is easy to integrate into your everyday routine with no muss, no fuss?
Welcome to the world of adaptogens: nutrient-dense, calorie-sparse superfoods that have been clinically proven to help your body:

Tero Isokauppila, founder of Four Sigmatic, and registered herbalist Danielle Ryan Broida guide you through the scientific mechanisms and health benefits of the 21 most powerful species of adaptogens, from ashwagandha to chaga to turmeric.
Complete with client case studies and a shopping guide, Healing Adaptogens will educate, inform, inspire, and delight, giving you the tools you need to elevate your daily routine with adaptogens.

A must read for anyone interested in health and wellness!
This is book is phenomenal. I am very into health and wellness and have heard about adaptogens for years but never have a resource to actually learn about what they do and the tremendous health benefits they have. This book is exactly what I was looking for it. It is a fun read and organized so perfectly to help you understand adaptogens and then take a deeper dive into each one and itâs particular health benefits, history and how to use it. This book is so well done and I will reference it for years to come. I canât wait to share this book and itâs knowledge with all my loved ones so we can all start using (and understanding) adaptogens!

Common sense, hype-free guide to Adaptogens
Finding a good health resource with actionable information is essential when learning about adaptogens. A bit about me: Once upon a decade (1980s), I was brewing kombucha, facilitating holotropic breathwork and learning the benefits holistic therapies.Somewhere along way, I drifted from the flock. Time will do that. Recently, I decided to re-discover the natural path. Or maybe it came looking for me. A friend pointed me to Four Sigmatic and I now have the pleasure of benefiting from the information in the new “Healing Adaptogens” book.The material is presented in a very straightforward and accessible way. I consider myself a novice with knowledge and I had several, “oh, yeah, that sounds familiar” moments. Yet, I approached it as-if I was just learning. Using the clear, well-structured pacing, I was able to learn about the history of adaptogens and discover what types might work best for my needs. The book will also, I suspect, reward further, more informed reading.I identified my body type, decided on one mushroom – Reishi – and went shopping. The specific recommendations in the book were all there: heavy metal testing, organic production, the scientific name on the ingredient label along with reference to use of the fruit body.If you are looking for a calm, common sense way to start or continue your relationship with natural healing, the book is useful and will play a valuable part.

GREAT RESOURCE
We have been on the herbal, mushroom, adaptogen path for many years and this is the best book/resource I’ve seen. It is comprehensive, well laid out and organized and a delight to read. I would say the authors put together a fine resource that they can be proud of for years to come. Everyone should know about adaptogens and this book although filled with extensive research and knowledge is not intimidating to read. Any one can benefit from reading this book and applying these concepts in their wellness quest. I would gift this book. Good job Tero and Danielle!

The Most Informative and Accessible Book About Adaptogens Ever Written!
I have read a wide selection of books written about different herbs and mushrooms, but this is the first one to combine all of that research into one very easily approachable and not to mention very fun read. During this day and age, we could all use a definitive guide on immune support, stress reduction, and physical optimization, so I am quite excited to begin using many of the adaptogens discussed in this book on the path towards peak health and mental wellness.

Use nature to feel your healthiest
I know of Tero through his company Four Sigmatic. Their mushroom blends have been a game changer for me, so I decided to give this book a look.Iâm not a âbio-hacker,â I just like to be healthy and feel my best. This book has already been super useful and led me to switch up my morning and evening routines for optimalperformance.Plus, itâs just fun to understand the earth and all its powerful, naturally occurring remedies more deeply. The authors also do a great job of looping in this type of wonder in their writing and you can tell they love what they are talking about.Good read!

A must read for today’s world!

I am so impressed and forever grateful for the work that these two talented and knowledgeable authors are offering. Thank you for birthing this and sharing it with us!

Never to late to learn!!!
This book is easy to read and understand. My mother is 87 and has Alzheimer’s and I am looking to learn as much as I can about keeping my cognitive levels in excellent condition. Everything I have read from other sources has confirmed , in my mind, that herbal adaptogens is the way for me.At 60 years young, I take no man made medications and my plan is to keep this plan “until death do I part”.The Energetics information is great for those who know what works for them and takes some of the guesswork out of what to try to heal yourself. You know your body the best, if you just listen.I feel way more in tune and have used this book as a reference many times over in the short time since my purchase.My sleep has improved and that makes all my days more enjoyable.This book gives you the science, the why and the how to have a better life with adaptogens.
