I have very high standards when it comes to adaptogenic herbs. In my experience, powdered herbs are a whole lot better value than capsuled herbs.
Locally, I haven’t been able to find high-quality powdered Rhodiola and Schisandra, two of my favorite adaptogens for energy, mood enhancement, immunity (important during the wintertime!), and libido. I did some research about European herbal vendors and decided on Indigo Herbs out of Glastonbury, UK.
Unfortunately, the only shipping option from the UK to Bulgaria, where I live, was Royal Mail Airmail; this shipper loses about 50% of packages I’ve had shipped to me here in Sofia. I waited for about a month for them to deliver my package of Rhodiola and Schisandra, and it never came, so I contacted them, and they shipped out another package free of charge, which arrived in about two weeks. To my pleasant surprise, about a month later I received a notification that the original package was at the post office. So I ended up getting two-for-one from Indigo Herbs.
My wife and I enjoyed the Rhodiola and Schisandra. We like to consume these herbs as tea; they make a very tasty, earthy-tasting tea that has a similar effect to a cup or two of coffee.
These herbs met my expectations of organic herbs; previously I used Lost Empire Herbs’ excellent COA-verified products.
The Adaptogens are noted for having a potent pro-immunity effect. Using these Adaptogens daily during the eastern European winter, we managed to avoid getting sick during the winter of 2019.
