Understanding Plasmade: An Adaptogenic Supplement
Plasmade is a liquid blend product designed to enhance the body's natural healing capabilities, positioning itself as an adaptogenic supplement rather than a traditional nutritional supplement. Unlike nutritional supplements that address deficiencies, adaptogens promote the body’s own responses to stressors. Plasmade specifically initiates the production of nitric oxide, which expands blood vessels, increases blood flow, and facilitates better oxygen transportation throughout the body. This process is particularly important for athletes as it enhances both performance and recovery, but it is recommended to be taken only before or after physical activities, never during.
