Description: Rhodiola is very helpful when it comes to dealing with stress. It can come from mental, emotional, or physical strain and can be caused by anxiety or overwork. Rhodiola rosea: Many of rhodiolas benefits are related to its function as an adaptogen, or a compound that increases the bodys resistance to any type of stress. Excessive release of stress hormones by the adrenal glands contributes to physical and mental fatigue, blood sugar imbalance, depression, immune suppression, sleep disturbance and cardiovascular dysfunction. Rhodiola has been shown to regulate the bodys hormonal response to stress. Siberian ginseng root extract: Although not a true ginseng, Siberian ginseng increases tolerance to various stressors. By regulating the manufacture and secretion of adrenal hormones, this herb helps to normalise the way in which the body responds to stress triggers. Liquorice root extract: Glycyrrhizin, a compound found in liquorice, is metabolised to glycyrrhetinic acid in the intestines. In studies, glycyrrhetinic acid has been shown to counteract the effects of adrenal hormone deficiency. Roman chamomile extract (Chamaemelum nobile): Chamomile has been used traditionally to relieve stress and anxiety and enhance feelings of calmness and relaxation. Magnesium: A mineral that is found in whole grains, which is required for proper nerve and muscle function. A deficiency of magnesium may lead to tension and irritability, which exacerbates stress. Pantothenic acid: Pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) is a precursor of coenzyme A, which is required for the synthesis of various hormones, including adrenal hormones. Tyrosine: Catecholamines (adrenaline, noradrenaline and dopamine) are synthesised from tyrosine and become depleted during stress. Studies support the use of tyrosines adaptogenic properties under extreme environmental conditions or psychological stress. Rhodiola is very helpful when it comes to dealing with stress. It can come from mental, emotional, or physical strain and can be caused by anxiety or overwork. We can all feel different degrees of stress at some stage. It is how we deal with it that counts.
