Herbs and Stress Relief

Super Green Energy Blend

Herbs and stress relief are extremely important in today’s world because our lives are so busy,  and, for many, overstimulated. Too much stress causes dis-ease and when we are "stressed out" for a long period of time it can cause us to feel tired and sluggish, especially in the morning upon rising and or between  2p.m.- 4p.m. When we are overwhelmed with stress this can lead to lethargy, anxiety and and/or depression.

I overcame extreme fatigue and sluggishness, lack of concentration, and digestive issues through the use of super greens and liver herbs. Herbs and stress relief are based on plants which are full of B vitamins, antioxidants, blood and liver cleansing properties, digestion-assisting properties and kidney adrenal building and nourishing properties.

Super greens replenish your body’s nutrient reserves, giving your body, mind and soul overall genuine energy and a clear, focused mind.

What are adaptogens and why are they so important?
herbs and stress relief

Some adaptogens are:

  • Astragalus root
  • Ashwaganda root
  • Schisandra berries
  • Maca root
  • Siberian Ginseng
  • Ginseng

Adaptogens help the body adapt to stress by normalizing body chemistry, which helps increase the resistance to stress by replenishing the adrenal glands. The beauty of herbs is that they support glands and/or organs most in need; as well as supporting other glands and organs.

Liver health is very important for hormone balance because the liver governs the thyroid. Part of the liver’s job is to cleanse chemical toxins from the body.  These toxins mimic estrogen - and too much estrogen creates extreme hormonal imbalance.

The body is brilliant and is designed to take from one place to replenish another when there is enough in its stores to do so. If not, depletion may occur, creating ill health.  It is very common to see thyroid problems when there are adrenal gland imbalances.
