Holiday Stress Got You Down? Everything You Need To Have A Calm + Relaxing Holiday Season

1. It calms your inflammation levels

Inflammation contributes to stress and anxiety in more ways than one. In fact, the brain might be particularly at risk since an overload of inflammation can trigger an inflammatory-autoimmune response against your brain and nervous system, leading to mood swings and feelings of anxiety and depression. 

Inflammation can also damage your blood-brain barrier, which can lead to something called “leaky brain” and oxidative stress in the hypothalamus, which is the part of the brain responsible for regulating appetite and weight, body temperature, emotions, behavior, memory, growth, salt and water balance, sex drive and your sleep-wake cycle. Needless to say, if you’re dealing with any of these stress-filled symptoms, inflammation is likely to blame.

Calm Yourself features The Curcumin - a superstar when it comes to fighting inflammation. Packed with pure turmeric extract, including BCM-95® which has been extensively studied for its proven efficacy without additives – The Curcumin optimizes bioavailability with its state-of-the-art composition by driving down and calming pro-inflammatory compounds in your body to restore it back to its natural state of being.

2. It calms your stress levels

Your body is built for stressful events. When something stressful happens, your body goes into fight-or-flight mode, causing a spike in cortisol, blood pressure, and blood sugar. But once the threat is gone, everything goes back to normal. However, when you are in a constant state of stress, it can affect your health to the point of metabolic health problems and the perpetuation of more stress. It's a vicious cycle. Therefore, it’s important to do everything you can to restore balance to your stress levels.

The Brain-Adrenal Balancer helps your body resist and recover from the effects of everyday stress. Featuring a curated blend of clinically tested nutrients and adaptogenic herbs – including Relora®, Sensoril®, and Suntheanine® – The Brain-Adrenal Balancer works to get cortisol levels back to healthy levels, alleviate occasional fatigue, promote mental clarity, and support relaxation and restful sleep.

3. It fights inflammatory triggers

Everything from the food you eat to the products you use can have a significant impact on your inflammation levels. Your body usually does a great job on its own of filtering out toxins from these things but when your liver (your main detox organ) is overloaded with toxins because it can’t process them fast enough, it creates a cascade of systemic chronic inflammation in your body, which further affects your liver’s ability to rid itself of these toxins. 

The only way to break the cycle is to support your liver’s natural ability to detox, so it can restore itself and catch up with the detoxification workload. Protect's comprehensive formula includes handpicked phytonutrients, micronutrients, and activated cofactors designed to support your liver and reduce the effects of environmental pollutants, endocrine disruptors, and other everyday toxins - one less thing to worry about this season!

So rather than continuing to overwhelm yourself, try simplifying things this season with Calm Yourself. Not only will you feel better over the next couple months, you’ll also be laying the foundation for a healthier 2024.
