	Beyond Adaptogens
		In the final analysis, adaptogens are, at most a subclass of herbs (technically limited to just one herb, Siberian ginseng) that possess the ability to increase the body's non-specific resistance to illness arising from stress to the neuro-endocrine system.
		Adaptogens may be distinguished from the larger, more inclusive class of tonic herbs on yet another basis.
		While the term 'adaptogen' applies strictly to herbs that affect the neuro-endocrine system (or, if we allow a certain amount of broadening of the use, to the immune system as it is impacted by the nervous system) the term 'tonic' involves the actions of herbs on any or all body systems.

	Why whole functional foods are superior to vitamin and mineral supplements.
		Adaptogens work in a synergistic manner increasing the body's own ability to fight off illness before it sets in, in direct contrast to modern drugs which attack 'specific' disease symptoms after you are thoroughly sick.
		An important point to note about adaptogenic whole food supplements is that the actions of the individual nutrients they contain are different if they are not combined in nature's own harmonious relationships.
		If just one of the adaptogen's functional food nutrients is isolated and used for its known effects on the body, it will not have the same tonic effect as it will in its natural whole food state.
