The American Psychological Associationreveals that a large percentage of Americans – both adults and children – suffer from chronic stress or symptoms related to it. Chronic stress pertains to extended exposure to stress. It can lead to various mental, as well as physical problems. Sufferers often have difficulty concentrating and getting sleep and are at a higher risk for conditions like anxiety, depression, reproductive problems, heart disease, and even cancer.

There are plenty of ways to deal with stress and taking natural supplements that help control your cortisol levels could be one of them. This method will essentially help you handle stress from the inside. Here are some of the best supplements for cortisol control:

Withania somnifera

This herb, also known as ashwagandha, belongs to a group of herbs called adaptogens, which contain properties that make them excellent for dealing with stress and its symptoms. True enough, ashwagandha is traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine as a natural treatment for anxiety. According to studies, supplementing with this herb can lower your cortisol levels by up to 30 percent.

Rhodiola rosea

This adaptogenic herb, also known as golden or Arctic root, has several uses in traditional Chinese medicine. It is used to increase stamina and vigor, as well as reduce stress and fatigue. Unlike other stress treatments, however, it is not a sedative. Instead, it leaves you feeling energized.

Studies into its effects revealed very promising results. One research found that it can alleviate depression much faster than conventional antidepressants. Another study found that unlike caffeine, it does not cause burnout and instead helped augment the participants’ mental performance.

It also has benefits for insomnia, depression, anxiety, and heart, lung, and digestive disorders.

Prebiotics

This refers to a wide range of foods that contain insoluble fibers. While these cannot be digested by your body, they serve as food for the “good” bacteria in your gut. These microorganisms help improve your immune system and lower your risk for many diseases. Research also shows that ingestion of prebiotics helps limit the effects of stress and reduce your cortisol levels. Prebiotics are found in abundance in many types of vegetables, fruits, and whole grains.

What is our mission? Why do we post what we do?

Our mission here is to curate (share) articles and information that we feel is important for the evolution of consciousness. Most of that information is written or produced by other people and organizations, which means it does not represent our views or opinions as managing staff of Stillness in the Storm. Some of the content is written by one of our writers and is clearly marked accordingly. Just because we share a CNN story that speaks badly about the President doesn’t mean we’re promoting anti-POTUS views. We’re reporting on the fact as it was reported, and that this event is important for us to know so we can better contend with the challenges of gaining freedom and prosperity. Similarly, just because we share a pro/anti-[insert issue or topic] content, such as a pro-second amendment piece or an anti-military video doesn’t mean we endorse what is said. Again, information is shared on this site for the purpose of evolving consciousness. In our opinion, consciousness evolves through the process of accumulating knowledge of the truth and contemplating that knowledge to distill wisdom and improve life by discovering and incorporating holistic values. Thus, sharing information from many different sources, with many different perspectives is the best way to maximize evolution. What’s more, the mastery of mind and discernment doesn’t occur in a vacuum, it is much like the immune system, it needs regular exposure to new things to stay healthy and strong. If you have any questions as to our mission or methods please reach out to us at [email protected].
