Cortisol Calm (60 Caps)

Cortisol Calm is a blend of botanical extracts, including Sensoril® ashwagandha, rhodiola, and magnolia, along with vitamin D and l-theanine – the bioactive compound originally found in green tea. Cortisol, released in response to stress, is primarily produced by the adrenal cortex. Intra-abdominal fat cells also produce cortisol. Identified as an adaptogen through extensive research, rhodiola helps temporarily relieve symptoms of stress (such as mental fatigue and a sensation of weakness) by maintaining healthy adrenal cortisol activity. Recently, a double-blind crossover study examined the effect of rhodiola on mental performance in healthy physicians. Results suggest rhodiola may help moderate fatigue under stressful conditions and support cognitive function, including mental concentration and endurance. In a separate, double-blind, placebo-controlled pilot study, rhodiola provided support for physical and mental stress in students. Promoting proper activity of neurotransmitters such as serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine plays a role in this herb’s ability to support cognitive function, memory, and attention. Cortisol Calm also contains Sensoril® ashwagandha, a clinically researched form of the herb. Ashwagandha is traditionally used in Ayurveda to enhance memory and as a sleep aid. Since stress can also diminish immune responses over time, vitamin D is included to help maintain immune function, including the maturation, differentiation, and migration of immune cells. Rhodiola is used in herbal medicine to support cognitive function and as an adaptogen to help temporarily relieve symptoms of stress. Ashwagandha is traditionally used in Ayurveda to enhance memory and as a sleep aid. Vitamin D maintains immune function.
