Adrenal Support (Cortisol) Blend
The Adrenal Support & Cortisol blend can help lower cortisol. It will relax the mind, protect our hippocampus (which is an important part of the brain that regulates cortisol), and may alleviate feelings of anxiety, restlessness, and irritability. Cortisol is often called the primary “stress hormone” because it’s one of the main hormones we release when we’re under any sort of “fight or flight” situation, produced by the two adrenal glands situated on top of the kidneys. This steroid hormone, is in charge of regulating energy levels to help the body meet its physiological demands when we are exposed to a stress and helping the body bounce back to normal. However, when stress becomes chronic, this constant release of cortisol creates havoc in the body, leading to hyper adrenal function, adrenal fatigue and even complete burnout. Research indicates that chronically elevated cortisol levels could cause: Weight gain and obesity Insulin resistance and Diabetes Cardiovascular diseases
