Supplements should be taken as a last resort when attempting to manage anxiety and depression. This is something which should be clear both to the doctors and patients. The reason is that taking of supplements only masks the cause of stress and therefore the situation is likely to get worse over time. If one has to use bioprotectant supplement for stress relief, caution should be exercised just like if it was an ordinary medication been taken and health care professionals have to be consulted.
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.
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 made from passionflower, skullcap, hops, valerian and chamomile is very effective in depression reduction too. They promote effective sleep. American and Korean Ginseng have been commended on their reduction of the levels of the stress hormone in the body. This can follow immediately after a stressful event happens or during prolonged stress periods. Its effectiveness is directly proportional to the amount of time it is used.
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.
