It's no secret that modern life is not great for our health. Stress and sickness are on the rise and traditional Western medicine, with its overreliance on pills, drugs, and chemically derived substances, doesn't always help. Still less does alcohol and other supposed "coping" mechanisms. It's no wonder people are turning to adaptogens instead: herbs, roots, fungi, and other plants that have been used for centuries in traditional and ancestral medicine to help people adapt to stress and increase wellness. While it's common to consume these potent plants as supplements, a better way - more sustainable and enjoyable way - is to incorporate them into your daily, monthly, and yearly diet. In Drink Up and Glow, master beverage creator Gaby Mylnarczyk will show you how to do just that and reap the astonishing benefits of these powerful plants.
In this fully photographed and illustrated book, Gaby pulls from her years of experience working behind bars and in kitchens - not to mention coping with her own health challenges - to create 75 adaptogenic recipes for drinks, tonics, shots, smoothies, shakes, mocktails, and more. Organized seasonally and rooted in Gaby's point of view as a craft beverage maker, these recipes feature fresh produce, include zero alcohol, and incorporate the most popular and well-researched adaptogens of the day: ashwagandha, goji berries, holy basil, turmeric, rhodiola, lion's mane, chaga, ginseng, and more.
