Reduce your stress
Did you know that 75 percent of people feel high levels of stress in their workplace? Stress is one of the most common health challenges in our modern life.
Stress triggers a hormone in your body called cortisol, also known as the “fight or flight” hormone. While it’s vital to have this hormone, these days we have way too much in our day-to-day lives. It starts from the alarm clock beeping in the morning, to rushing around getting ready for work (and perhaps herding the kids or partner out the door) while eating a quick breakfast on the run, to then fighting the rush-hour traffic. Your cortisol levels are elevated and it’s not even 9 a.m!
Excess stress and high cortisol levels can lead to much more serious diseases, including:
✔ Weight gain, especially around the abdomen/stomach
✔ Mood swings
✔ Increased anxiety
✔ Fatigue
✔ Trouble sleeping
✔ Irregular menstrual periods
✔ Fertility problems
✔ High blood pressure and narrowing of the arteries
✔ Acne or other changes in the skin
✔ Osteoporosis
✔ Muscle aches and pains
✔ Lower libido
✔ Higher susceptibility to infections
✔ Lower immune system functions
✔ Increased risk of breast cancer
So as you can see, stress can cause a lot of health problems. The best supplement I have found to lower cortisol naturally is Cortitrol®. This patent-pending herbal supplement designed to help you relax and lower your stress hormone cortisol. Using exclusive proprietary methods and ingredients such as:
Magnolia bark (Magnolia officinalis), a traditional Chinese medicine used since 100 AD.
Epimedium (Epimedium koreanum), a medicinal herb that dates back to at least 400 AD.
TheaPure™ (L-theanine), a unique amino acid, and a proprietary all-natural extract found in green tea leaves. Pharmanex uses 70 kg of green tea leaf to deliver 1 kg of pure extract making it the most potent form of green tea available.
These three ingredients combine to make it highly effective. The great thing about Cortitrol® is you won’t feel drowsy or have any nasty side effects, such as altering energy levels or affecting cognitive function, that are common in most competing products. You can take up to three capsules of Cortitrol® a day or on demand when required. You will feel calmer within fifteen minutes.
Cortitrol® is listed in the PDR (Physicians’ Desk Reference).
