HORMONE BALANCE IS IN! This is how you can cont...
here are five supplements that can help lower your cortisol levels. First one is ashwagandha. This is an adaptogen. It helps your body adapt to stress by lowering cortisol, allowing you to feel relaxed and less stressed over everyday stressors. This is great for anyone who is experiencing chronic stress, but it should be cycles. So you should take it four weeks on two weeks off, or you can take it every other day. As long as you're giving your body a break, people who are taking immunosuppressant medications and women with PCOS should not take ashwagandha. Second one is one of my favorite supplements, magnesium glycinate and magnesium, aside from being the relaxation mineral is actually heavily involved in regulating the hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis. And just to reference, the adrenal glands release cortisol in response to signals from the HPA axis. So magnesium plays a role in regulating all of this. L-theanine induces alpha brainwave activity. It also triggers dopamine and serotonin release, and these mechanisms give it a really nice calming effect. These calming effects can reduce the cortisol response to stress. Fourth one is rhodiola. I have been on a rhodiola kick lately. I've been obsessed with taking rhodiola. It not only prevents excessive cortisol from being released during stressful situations, also has really great anti fatigue properties. So it gives you a boost of energy. This can be so helpful because when you have chronically elevated cortisol levels, it makes you feel very tired and exhausted all the time. The last supplement is a probiotic because the gut brain axis plays a huge role in the stress response. Studies have shown time and time again that probiotic supplementation has a very positive impact on stress and cortisol levels.
