Every Ingredient Has a Purpose

'A non-stimulating adaptogen'
Ashwagandha root
Ashwagandha is one of the few non-stimulating adaptogens. It has been used by herbalists through the ages to improve the body’s resistance to stress, maintain mental balance, and is well-known for reducing anxiety. Ours comes from pure ground root, with nothing added.

'Thought to promote longevity'
Holy Basil Leaf
Holy Basil is known for its antioxidant properties. It is an Ayurvedic Rasayana – a herb that was used to promote longevity. It’s believed to help with a wide range of ailments, from acne to anxiety. It is used to enhance mental clarity, help you embrace calm, and elevate your mood and spirits.

‘The brain mushroom’
Lion's Mane
Often referred to as ‘Nature’s nutrient for the neurons’ (owing to its capacity to stimulate the production of Nerve Growth Factor), Lion’s Mane has been said to protect our memory, be beneficial for dementia, reduce inflammation, and alleviate feelings of stress and depression.

‘A natural source of minerals and trace elements’
SEAGREENS®
A natural source of minerals and trace elements, Seagreens® is rich in iodine. This aids your metabolism as well as helping to maintain normal digestion, skin, thyroid, nervous system, and cognitive function. Seagreens® itself is a dried fine powder of wrack seaweeds.

Frequently Asked Questions
Absolutely. Many of The Herbtender community enjoy mixing blends for increased potency. You could decide to combine a few blends to work together to achieve the same thing, such as Rise & Shine and Focus & Clarity, which are crafted for energy and mental focus. We recommend taking those in the morning or afternoon. Or you could take blends that do different things at different times of the day such as Rise & Shine to get you going in the morning together with Doze and Dream in the evening to support deeper rest and relaxation. You are your own Herbtender so you’re welcome to combine your favourite blends any time of day!
We have designed a series of sets combining two or more of our products that go particularly well together. See our sets here.
We advise you to consult with a herbalist or medical practitioner before taking our products if you are on prescribed medication. Even though our capsules are made from natural ingredients, interactions can sometimes happen. To find a medical herbalist near you please go to www.nimh.org.uk and click on ‘find a herbalist’
Yes, all of our products can be taken long term. Often, we find that when people no longer need them, they begin to forget to take them. If you find that happening, you can always stop taking them for a few weeks to see how life is without them and then decide whether or not to restart.
This is a very individual thing. Some people will notice an effect from the first dose, others may need to take the capsules for a week or more before noticing a difference. If you have been taking the capsules for a week and are not noticing any difference, it may be that you need to increase the dose you are taking to the slightly higher one recommended on the pack. We don’t recommend taking more than four capsules per day of any of our products.
All our blends are vegan, dairy-free, soya free, certified gluten-free and certified kosher.
