Stress and nerves

We live in a constant rush, and it seems that time is speeding up year after year. Multitasking at work, strength training, and excessive responsibilities expose us to stressful situations. Our temperament also plays a role and translates into the way we respond to stress. Fortunately, the supplement market offers a wide range of plant extracts that help our bodies combat stress and cope with situations that require self-control.

What supplements should you use?

The best known and most effective supplement is Withania somnifera. It has a tonic effect, promotes sleep, relieves stress, and speeds up recovery. The second supplement used by athletes is Rhodiola rosea. It accelerates the regeneration of the nervous system and increases muscle endurance. People who do mental work also use products such as Bacopa monnieri or Centella asiatica. In addition to relieving stress, they also increase mental abilities. This leads to improved memory function and thinking. Supplements that ultimately reduce stress levels are those based on extracts of lemon balm, hop cones, or containing L-theanine.
