Garlic and lemon juice provide a flavorful punch. The good thing about pesto? It\u2019s easy to make by whirling all the ingredients in a food processor. Toss the pesto with the pasta of your choice, spread on whole grain toast, or dollop on eggs.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Holy basil can be purchased as a fresh herb or supplement, says Delk. A sacred plant in India, it\u2019s been traditionally used to treat acute and chronic health conditions, as well as relieve stress, according to a review published in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC8762178\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Current Neuropharmacology<\/em><\/a> in 2021. That same review points out that a couple of clinical studies suggest that holy basil extracts (which typically contain a more potent concentration of the active ingredient compared to the fresh herb) have been shown to improve cognitive function. One thing to keep in mind if you cook with holy basil is that it\u2019s not a complete substitution for regular basil in recipes,\u201d says Delk. Holy basil has more bitter and peppery notes, while traditional basil tends to be sweeter. She recommends using holy basil in curries and stir-fries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"5\">\n<li><strong>Reishi mushroom hot chocolate<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n<p><strong>Try: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/avivaromm.com\/reishi-hot-chocolate\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Reishi Powered Adaptogen Hot Cocoa<\/a> from Aviva Romm, MD<\/p>\n\n\n<p>By whisking together <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/how-to-make-nut-milk\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"\">your milk of choice<\/a>, along with cocoa powder, reishi mushroom powder, cinnamon, and sea salt, and heating it over a stove, you can create a really decadent, soothing sip.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Reishi mushrooms have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, and they may support your immune system, according to one 2020 study in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC7557611\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Pharmaceuticals<\/em><\/a> that calls them \u201cthe most potent adaptogen present in nature.\u201d That said, this is a supplement you may want to monitor carefully. \u201cThere are some nutritional benefits to eating reishi mushrooms because they contain fiber, vitamins, and minerals, but there could be some safety concerns when taking reishi mushroom <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/what-vitamins-and-supplements-should-i-take\/\">supplements<\/a> long-term,\u201d says Delk.

Adaptogens don\u2019t erase the stress that comes from a poor diet, difficulty sleeping, or having maladaptive habits to find your calm. But adaptogenic herbs may be able to move the dial for you a bit. Delk recommends starting with a low dose and slowly increasing (if desired) after you understand how your body reacts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div  class=\"cta-block -mx-4 md:mx-0 my-10 p-px md:rounded bg-white text-black relative  bg-no-repeat bg-cover aspect-[83\/48]\" style=\"background-image:url(https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/BlogBackground_Quiz.jpg);\" >\n\n\t<div class=\"p-4 sm:p-6 w-[70%] md:w-2\/3\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"text-2xl md:text-3xl font-display font-bold uppercase\">Build Your Supplement Routine<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<a class=\"btn btn-large btn-primary mt-4 md:mt-8 !no-underline\" href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/get_started\" target=\"_blank\">Take The HUM Quiz<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Discover 5 delicious and easy-to-make adaptogen-based recipes that can help you reduce stress levels.
