Magnesium & B vitamins for stress
Find out more about the impact of high-dose vital substances magnesium and B vitamins to help combat stress.
These days, stress has become almost a normal part of everyday life for many people. Often, it is even considered as a yardstick of success, because somebody who is stressed is considered to be somebody who achieves a lot. And we all have to achieve more and more to balance the demands of family, career and leisure. However, constant stress may also have negative effects on health.
Stress in itself is not a bad thing: Under natural living conditions, it helps to put your body on high alert, ready for action in the presence of threats. Stress hormones such as adrenalin and noradrenalin are secreted, they dilate the bronchi, increase blood pressure and heart rate and improve the oxygen supply to muscles and brain. If the stress can be acted out actively, it has positive effects and is known as eustress.
However, noise, the pressure to perform and excessive demands cannot be fought physically. Levels of stress hormones remain high and negative stress (distress) develops, which can affect body and mind.

Strategies to combat stress should begin in both mind and body. You start by using your head to assess the situation.

These “nerve-vitamins” make a decisive contribution to a normal functioning of the nervous system function and energy-yielding metabolism. People who make sure they are adequately supplied with magnesium and B vitamins have already done a lot to counter stress and relax the nerves.
