OptiStress Response

Why Use OptiStress Response?

2 out of every 3 adults deal with some form of chronic stress, which may lead to feelings of fatigue and anxiety.  Stress depletes the critical nutrients from the body that help us thrive.

OptiStress Response benefits include:

• Promotes healthy adrenal function
• Supports balanced stress-related fatigue
• Supports cognitive function and healthy mood
• Supports healthy energy production
• Promotes healthy immune function
• Supports a healthy response to oxidative stress

OptiStress Response plays a pivotal role in modulating the brain-body hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and promoting a healthy stress response.  It is imperative to get adequate amounts of key vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that help your body cope with stress.  Balance healthy adrenal function and support balanced stress-related fatigue.

How OptiStress Response Works?

During chronic stress, high levels of cortisol are produced.  Thiamin (vitamin B1) works with vitamin B6 to help balance healthy cortisol levels in the adrenals.  B1 and B6 help support healthy adrenal function by optimizing the stress response via the HPA axis.²  In addition, B6 plays a key role in supporting symptoms of stress and adrenal exhaustion through L-tryptophan metabolism into 5-hydroxy- tryptophan (5-HTP)—which eventually is metabolized into serotonin, a calming neurotransmitter.^1,3

Zinc and ashwagandha synthesize stress hormones that may become depleted and not available for other essential physiological functions.¹  Ashwagandha promotes a calming effect in the adrenals.^4,5

 Calcium helps circulate blood through the body while magnesium activates over 300 enzymatic reactions in supporting cellular ionic balance to promote healthy cardiovascular function, healthy adrenal function, and healthy neurotransmitter synthesis.^1,6,7

What is OptiStress Response?

OptiStress Response is a comprehensive formula that helps support a healthy stress response.  It includes bioavailable forms of B vitamins along with calcium, vitamin C, zinc, ashwagandha and magnesium.

Ashwagandha contains constituents such as with anolides, sitoindosides, and alkaloids that have a calming effect and support a healthy response to oxidative stress.^4,5  Calcium and magnesium play numerous roles in promoting healthy circulation and cardiovascular function, which also supports healthy adrenal function.^6,7  Vitamin C and zinc are crucial for supporting healthy oxidative stress response and immune function as both are co-factors in adrenaline and neurotransmitter synthesis.^1,8,9  Vitamin C is effective for supporting healthy cortisol rhythms, which is crucial for supporting healthy and balanced stress-related fatigue.¹⁰
