Treat Stress Naturally with High-Quality Vitamins and Nutritional Supplements

Stress can come in many forms and from many places. Whether your teenager is testing your stress limits behind the wheel of your car or your boss is breathing down your neck about a project you've been putting off, a dietary supplement may be just the ticket you need, especially considering that stress can affect your autoimmune system and make you vulnerable to that bug everyone seems to have and you just don't need right now.

The B vitamin group is known for its ability to reduce stress levels while keeping up with a daily active lifestyle. Pioneer offers their B-Complex Stress Formula in a vegan-friendly tablet form, with ingredients found in green foods and herbs. If your workplace feels more like a battle zone, consider Douglas Laboratories' Executive Stress Formula, with gingko biloba and anthocyanins from red wine. If your stress levels are off the charts, Priority One has their Mega Stress Tablets with bioflavonoids, chromium, folic acid, ginseng and the full spectrum of B vitamins. To regulate your stress levels, PhysioLogics has their timed-release Stress B tablets with pyridoxine to reduce levels of homocysteine, an amino acid produced in response to stress and shown to increase the risk of cardiovascular disease.  

Available in capsule form, Stress Essentials, from Integrative Therapeutics, contains B-Complex vitamins, along with the calming effects of valerian. This formulation is for those who engage in strenuous, physical activities that can deplete nutrients usually available in a well-balanced diet. For an easy-to-take softgel format, consider NewChapter's Stress Take Care formula that regulates cortisol levels, the body's reaction to stress and the cause of increased fat retention around the midsection seen in middle age. Pure Encapsulations has their Daily Stress Formula with a full spectrum of B vitamins, along with the calming addition of camomile and stress-relieving ashwagandha (Indian ginseng), used in Ayurvedic homeopathy for years. 

If your stress levels leave you less than refreshed, even after a good night's sleep, consider Enzymatic Therapy's Andrenal Stress End formula, with bovine-based adrenal cortex and tissue to combat the daily effects of stress. If you're not comfortable with animal-derived supplements, check out Herb Pharm's Stress Manager herbal tincture, with basil leaf and eleuthero root, a botanical known for its performance-enhancing properties in Soviet athletes and the treatment of chronic illness by Chinese homeopaths.
