Adaptogens
Adrenal Strength from MegaFood and Adrenal Response from Innate Response are two products that contain adaptogens, which are plants and herbs that help reduce the negative impact of stress on the body. Read more about how adaptogens work in our article on adaptogens.
Adrenal Strength and Adrenal Response – the best adaptogens?
Both Adrenal Strength and Adrenal Response are produced by the same company in the USA, so the manufacturing process is exactly the same for both products, and both are tested to be free from pesticides, heavy metals, as well as glyphosate, gluten, dairy, and soy. However, there are differences in the ingredients, even though many overlap. Both products contain ashwagandha, which has adaptogenic properties and supports the body's ability to manage stress. Ashwagandha also contributes to physical and mental health in cases of weakness, fatigue, tiredness, and concentration issues. There are several other adaptogens in both products, but Adrenal Strength also includes L-Serine, which is not present in Adrenal Response. L-Serine supports choline formation and proper communication between nerve cells. Adrenal Strength also contains vitamin C, which is absent in Adrenal Response. Vitamin C supports the normal function of the immune and nervous systems, protects cells from oxidative stress, reduces fatigue, and contributes to normal energy metabolism. Adrenal Strength also includes pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), which supports normal energy metabolism, mental performance, and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, as well as the synthesis and metabolism of steroid hormones, vitamin D, and certain neurotransmitters. Adrenal Response does not contain pantothenic acid.
Adrenal Strength is simply a more powerful and better product compared to Adrenal Response, and we primarily recommend Adrenal Strength, although the daily cost is slightly higher than Adrenal Response.
