Eleuthero, also called Siberian ginseng, comes from the Eleutherococcus senticosus plant. It helps the body cope with physical and mental stress. When you are tired or under high demand, it can sustain energy, sharpen focus, and support immune health.
Take eleuthero in extract or capsule form earlier in the day so it won't disrupt sleep. You can take it with or without food. Some people prefer food for easier digestion.
Eleuthero can interact with blood pressure medications and blood thinners. If you have high blood pressure or an autoimmune disorder, get professional advice before using it. Do not take it if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
