Surely, we're all feeling a little more stressed than usual during these worrying times?
Stress can be acute or chronic and lead to fatigue, headaches, upset stomach, nervousness, irritability and anger.
Regular exercise, adequate sleep, and good nutrition are some of the best ways to better equip your body to combat stress, but several vitamins and supplements can also help.
We'd like to draw your attention to 2 of the best natural plant-based supplements from our range to help you combat stress.
Ashwagandha
Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is an adaptogenic herb native to India, where it has been used in Indian Ayurveda, one of the world’s oldest medicinal systems.
Ashwagangha is thought to enhance your body’s resilience to physical and mental stress. We only use organic KSM-66 Ashwagandha, widely thought to be the 'gold standard' of Ashwagandha on the market.
5HTP
Our 5HTP extract is carefully formulated to support your body and mind through the stresses and strains of modern life.
5-Hydroxytryptophan is a naturally occuring substance made by the body and converted into Serotonin, The neurotransmitter that controls mood, appetite, and sleep. The only other source of 5-HTP is found in the seeds of the African plant Griffonia Simplicfolia, from which we carefully extract our 5HTP supplement.
Of course, supplements can only do so much to help. For those feeling particularly anxious about the Coronavirus outbreak and the effects it is having on your wellbeing, here are a few great articles with some fantastic coping mechanisms:
