Stress Management Supplements

Support for stress management

Some days can be overwhelming. Work or school, family, finances, and even friends can upset your sense of calm and add to feelings of stress. But the right nutrition can help manage those feelings and support a healthy mood. Certain plant extracts may help soothe your body and promote a healthy response to daily stress by maintaining already-healthy levels of the stress hormone cortisol.

What is the best supplement for stress relief?

There are many stress relief supplements. Ashwagandha, L-theanine, magnesium and lemon balm have all shown promise in clinical studies for cortisol stress management, mood support, healthy sleep patterns and more. Even better, they have other health benefits that go beyond mood and mental well-being. For example: what is ashwagandha good for? It helps support healthy memory and cognitive function along with encouraging a healthy stress response. And what does a theanine supplement do? This green tea component promotes relaxation and supports healthy cognition and attention.

Which magnesium is best for stress?

Magnesium gets a lot of attention because it supports more than 300 biochemical reactions in the body, along with the role it plays in stress management. Magnesium can help encourage feelings of calmness and relaxation, but unless it is absorbed where it is needed—your brain—it won't be much help! Magnesium acetyl taurinate is an innovative, bioavailable form of magnesium that can cross the blood-brain barrier and give you the healthy stress support you need.
