Description
Protects the heart and brain from stress-damage and improves stress-coping ability. Stress stimulates the formation of adrenaline and a heart toxin called C-reactive protein. These damage the heart, cause arrhythmias, high blood pressure and increase the risk of heart attack by up to 600%. Stress also elevates levels of the aging hormone, cortisol, which suppresses immune function and causes memory loss. Chronic stress can cause insulin resistance and increase the risk of diabetes. It also upsets the balance of brain neurotransmitters (brain messengers), resulting in depression, anxiety and insomnia. Stress suppresses thyroid function, causing hypothyroidism and fatigue. Stress Damage Control™ reduces excessive cortisol and adrenaline, thereby protecting the heart and brain from stress-damage and also improves stress coping ability.

Stress stimulates the formation of adrenalin and a heart toxin called C-reactive protein. These damage the heart, cause arrhythmias, high blood pressure and increase the risk of heart attack.

It also upsets the balance of brain neurotransmitters, resulting in depression, anxiety and insomnia. Stress also suppresses thyroid function, causing hypothyroidism and fatigue. Stress Damage Control™ reduces excessive cortisol and adrenaline, thereby protecting the heart and brain from stress related damage and also improves stress coping ability. Stress Damage Control™ contains the active ingredients Rosavin and Salidroside (extracted from rhodiola rosea) a herbal adaptogen that has been used for centuries to manage fatigue and depression. Ashwaghanda, also an adaptogen, has been shown to increase resistance to environmental stress, anxiety and also improve brain functioning. Alpha lipoic acid has been shown to decrease C-reactive protein and help in chronic stress syndrome. Beta-sitosterol is also beneficial in treating chronic stress syndrome.
