Stress is an unavoidable natural physical and mental reaction to life experiences to which an individual is constantly exposed in both short-term bursts and over extended periods of time.[1] The body’s ability to withstand the damaging effects of stress is mediated primarily by the adrenal (aka suprarenal) glands: small, triangular glands located on top of the kidneys that secrete hormones involved in stress response (epinephrine, norepinephrine, and cortisol), blood-pressure regulation (aldosterone) and reproduction (estrogen and testosterone) controlling many body processes including digestion, the immune system, mood balance, and energy.[2]
Excessive and prolonged mental and physical stress can lead to adrenal insufficiency and associated symptomatic manifestations including fatigue, immunosuppression, and impaired blood-sugar and blood-pressure control.[3]
NFH Adrenal SAP is a combination of vitamins, minerals, and adaptogenic herbs (Siberian ginseng, Ashwagandha, Astragalus, and Panax ginseng) that can:
- Help improve energy levels and foster mental and physical performance after periods of mental and physical exertion [2, 4, 5]
- Help support and strengthen the body during times of stress and anxiety [2, 4, 5]
