What is an adaptogenic plant?

The term "adaptogenic plant" is reserved for medicinal plants, berries or mushrooms. These are plants with properties of their own which help the human body to adapt to the different types of stress to which it may be subject.

Hygée is the first French brand of food supplements based on adaptogenic plants! Because plants are often smarter than we are, Hygée has concentrated their powers in its innovative products, designed to adapt to you and your lifestyle.
