This powerful herbal formula is designed to support and stimulate gland function, and the tissues affected by stress, to promote overall wellness. Functioning adrenal glands are necessary for healthy recovery from stress and overwork. These herbs also facilitate proper function of regulatory mechanisms. Hypothalamus, Pituitary, Adrenal systems that control hormones involved in the stress response.
An optimum function of these systems may result in healthy levels of hormones, such as cortisol, which plays an important role in the regulation of the body's processes. These may include the immune function and sugar metabolism. Additionally, the formula helps promote normal function of the thyroid gland, which can be affected by stress.
Everyone needs to cleanse the lymph system of waste that can build up over a lifetime. If the thyroid gland isn't working properly, the hormones produced by the gland won't achieve their proper levels. This can leave the body feeling fatigued and with inexplicable weight gain or weight loss, as well as stress, anxiety and you may experience trouble sleeping.
