Modern life demands more than coffee can offer. Between tight deadlines, endless notifications and disrupted sleep, many of us are running on fumes. That’s where adaptogens—ancient herbs that help the body adapt to stress—come in. Among the most powerful are Ashwagandha and Rhodiola rosea, the star duo behind Focus Brew—our adaptogenic latte designed for steady energy and mental clarity.
Different Paths to Balance: How They Work
Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera)
Known as the “King of Adaptogens,” Ashwagandha works by modulating cortisol, the body’s main stress hormone. Standardised extracts such as KSM-66® have been shown in human studies to reduce cortisol levels by up to 27%, while improving sleep quality, testosterone balance and cognitive performance. It calms without sedating—helping you stay composed when life gets demanding.
Rhodiola rosea
Rhodiola takes a different route. Rather than lowering cortisol directly, it enhances cellular energy by supporting the mitochondria—the tiny powerhouses inside your cells. By improving oxygen efficiency and reducing fatigue-inducing compounds, Rhodiola promotes stamina, motivation and focus. That’s why it’s been a favourite among athletes, students and high-performers in Northern Europe for centuries.
Together, these two herbs form a complementary system: Ashwagandha cools the stress response, while Rhodiola fuels your inner drive. The result? Calm alertness and sustained performance without the caffeine crash.
