Stress – the Silent Saboteur of Modern Man – how to Stop it?
Stress today is not an exception – but the rule
Modern lifestyle leaves little room for relaxation. Work, responsibilities, digital pressure and accelerated pace make the body and mind live in a constant state of “fight or flight”. This state is called chronic stress – and the consequences are serious.
How does stress affect the body?
- The hormone cortisol remains elevated, leading to fatigue, insomnia and hormonal imbalance
- Problems with digestion, blood pressure and thyroid gland appear
- Immunity weakens, concentration decreases, and emotions become unstable
- The body becomes exhausted – physically and mentally
Can we defeat stress without running away from life? Yes – if we learn how to renew ourselves from within.
Proven effective methods for stress relief:
Breathing and meditation – just 5 minutes daily lowers cortisol
Physical activity – natural antidepressant
Sleep – restores the brain, regulates hormones
Nature – walking in greenery reduces stress by 30%
Setting boundaries and digital detox
But sometimes the body needs specific nutritional support to break free from the vicious cycle of tension and exhaustion.
4 natural allies against stress
- Ashwagandha – the plant of balance
An adaptogenic plant that lowers cortisol, improves sleep, mental resilience and balances hormones. Beneficial for chronic stress, anxiety and fertility problems.
- Magnesium bisglycinate – mineral for a calm mind
The most bioavailable form of magnesium. Calms the nervous system, relaxes muscles and improves sleep without sedation. Particularly useful for tension, insomnia and PMS.
- Spelt juice – green support from nature
Rich in chlorophyll, iron, zinc and antioxidants. Helps detoxification, strengthens immunity and restores energy to the body under stress. It also acts as a mild adaptogen, restoring the body to balance.
- Melatonin – guardian of sleep and regeneration
A natural sleep hormone that helps us fall asleep, but also helps the body regenerate during sleep. With chronic stress, melatonin levels often drop – supplementation can help the body restore its biorhythm.
