Caution In Taking Bioprotectant Supplement For Stress Relief

By Nancy Gardner


In times of stress, medical professionals and patients should not go running to supplements. Depression management requires addressing of the underlying causative factors; something supplements just mask. Another thing to note is that bioprotectant supplement for stress relief is not any different from other conventional medication and the same caution exercised in use of normal drugs applies to the products too.

Stress is best handled by identification and treatment of the underlying cause. You may be surprised to find out that a slight change in the lifestyle is all you need to keep depression at bay. Other things which may tried in relieving depression include yoga, meditation, tai chi, controlled breathing and exercise. Depression is not something that can be biopsied like other forms of diseases in its diagnosis. Its existence is in the dominions of the human mind. That is why it is important to be very mindful when selecting the tools to use in managing it.

If planning to start taking bioprotectant supplements, getting to know the various types available and their potency is important. That is why a professional in integrative medicine or any other person familiar with the products should be sought out for advice before purchasing the supplements. Many of these products have sedative effects and thus are not to be taken with alcohol or any other sedative agent.

For one to sleep, the muscles should be relaxed completely. That is why some these supplements just contain elements which provide the muscles with the necessary nutrients to get to a relaxed state. The elements included are magnesium, B-complex vitamins, vitamin C and the fatty acids made in the human body.

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 from mint family. It is good at inducing a tranquil feeling and improving the mood. It is however required in considerable amounts for it to be effective and also has to be taken at least three times in a day. Its safety has been confirmed through research.

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.
