Intimacy

A tonic superfood or an herb that is classically used as part of human sexuality as a combination of constituents that maintains genital reproductive health, healthy hormones, and supports physical performance. In herbalism, these herbs may be used to support and promote enjoyment of intimacy and fulfillment of sexuality with a partner.

Intimacy is a combination of different benefits, because adaptogens themselves have non-specific actions for the development of wellbeing. Therefore a healthy lifestyle with a complete diet and healthy relationships is necessary to fulfill wholesome intimacy in sexuality with a partner.  Tonic adaptogens have holistic effects that will support a lifestyle that engenders eroticism and passion as part of sexual enjoyment with a partner.

Because of this is it best to research the nutrients and unique constituents found in an adaptogen for insight in how it may support intimacy.
