Features:
- Increases cortisol levels and provides non-glandular ingredients important for adrenal health, energy, wakefulness, and stress management*
- Glycyrrhizic acid (from Licorice root extract): Glycyrrhetinic acid (metabolite of glycyrrhizic acid) binds 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 2 (11beta-HSD2) to inhibit the breakdown of cortisol [1,2]* L-histidine is a precursor to histamine. In the central nervous system, histamine plays an important role in the release of pituitary hormones and wakefulness [3].
- L-methionine is a precursor to S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe) [4]. SAMe is directly involved in methylation processes including catecholamine synthesis [5]. L-tyrosine is a precursor to catecholamines including dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine.
- Rhodiola rosea root extract (5% rosavins): Adaptogen that has been shown to reduce stress-induced effects [6,7].* In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, Rhodiola rosea was shown to significantly improve mental fatigue and general well-being under stress [7].*
- Green tea leaf extract (Camellia sinensis) (65% EGCG): Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) is a polyphenol in green tea that provides antioxidant protection by its ability to scavenge free radicals [8]* EGCG has been shown to increase resistance to fatigue in animal models [9].*
