Caution In Taking Bioprotectant Supplement For Stress Relief

By Nancy Gardner


Doctors and patients need to understand that supplements are not the first remedy to turn to in times of depression or anxiety. They do nothing in addressing the real cause of stress. Just as it is with normal medications, bioprotectant supplement for stress relief should be used with caution and one needs to inform the health care professional when using this product.

The most effective way of dealing with stress is identification of the cause and addressing it. At times, this may require some adjustments in lifestyle and then everything else falls in place. Sometimes you can try meditation, exercises, yoga, tai chi and controlled breathing in dealing with stressful happenings. This is not something that can be picked by a medical scan or a laboratory test. It is on the mind. That is why the modalities employed in its management should be carefully thought about.

The supplements that are available in market are of varying quality and their contents are not the same. That is why the help of an expert in the field or a practitioner in integrative medicine is needed. Do not forget that most of these products have sedative effects and therefore should not be taken alongside other sedative medications or alcohol.

Relaxed muscles lead to better sleep. Some of these products are meant to provide the muscles with the necessary nutrients to make them relaxed. Sleep is an important aspect in dealing with stress. The components which can induce relaxation state include vitamin C, B complex vitamins, fatty acids produced in the body and magnesium.

Sleep comes as one gets tired gradually. Melatonin is a hormone produced in the body when one is in a dark place. A number of factors influence its production including changing time zones, daytime sleeping and age. In the event of the above mentioned factors, one can take a supplement to increase melatonin levels in the short-run.

Herbal tea containing chamomile, hops, passionflower, skullcap and valerian are very effective in promotion of sleep. According to research, American and Korean Ginseng are great in lowering the level of cortisol in the body which is a depressing hormone. This can either be during long durations of stress or immediately following stressful incidents. This supplement produces a better outcome if taken for long periods of time rather than just a short while. Its effectiveness can be enhanced when taken with another type of supplement that helps keep stress hormone level at healthy levels.

Lemon balm is a supplement derived from the mint family. It goes a long way in improving mood and also induces a feeling of calmness. The product is relatively safe but it is needed in large quantities to get results. Also it should be taken up to three times in a day.

Passionflower is a bioprotectant supplement which should be taken by people having anxiety attacks. About 45 drops are needed daily. It works the same as diazepam in relieving stress. However, more research should be done on its effectiveness and safety as the available data is on laboratory tests.
