Super Powders by Katrine van Wyk

Natural remedies for various physical ailments are well known; now hitting the scene are supplements—made from berries, mushrooms, herbs, and other plants— that can help the body (and mind) adapt to stress. These “adaptogens” work towards restoring balance, enhancing focus and stamina, boosting energy, and improving mood. In Super Powders, health coach Katrine van Wyk takes 20 adaptogens and describes what they are and how to use them. She might recommend goji berries for mood, Astragalus for immunity, Reishi and Moringa for anxiety relief. Then van Wyk shares the dozens of recipes she’s developed, including:

• Meaningful Matcha with Cordyceps and Moringa
• Unbeatable Brownies with Ashwaghanda, Goji, and Maca
• Golden Good Morning Milk wth Astragalus and Reishi

Adaptogens should be part of every healthy person’s routine, and this appealing book can reveal everything you need to know to get started.
