Ashwagandha and Astragalus

Adaptogens are herbs and medicinal mushrooms that help keep your body and mind in balance and increase your resilience to stress.
Their main ability is to regulate stress through their interaction with the three primary systems involved in stress regulation.

Two commonly used adaptogens that are each other's opposites in terms of properties, but which also share some similarities: Ashwagandha and Astragalus.
One is mainly used for its relaxing properties, the other to generate more energy.
