THE ROLE OF CORTISOL IN TIMES OF STRESS

Cortisol is a hormone produced in the adrenal cortex that is released during times of stress. Variations in cortisol secretion can indicate how well the body is coping with stress. Cortisol homeostasis is typically characterized by peak secretion during the early morning hours with a gradual decline throughout the day. Because of its central role as a key stress hormone, cortisol is often thought of as a bridge between stress and its health impact.

Cortisol Manager FAQ

Can Cortisol Manager® be taken during the day? Will it cause drowsiness?
While some individuals do take Cortisol Manager® during the day, caution should be used as it will cause you to relax and drowsiness may occur. †
Can Cortisol Manager® be helpful for someone with low cortisol levels?
While the ingredients do have a modulating effect, the small scale study shows a rather significant reduction in cortisol levels. Therefore, we would not recommend Cortisol Manager® for someone with low cortisol.
Can Cortisol Manager be used in mid or late-stage stress response?
Though typically used within the early-stage of the stress response, Cortisol Manager can be used in the mid and late stages – particularly within the mid-stage when additional energy and stress support is needed.* The HPA Optimization program highlights key nutrient support that is appropriate for the mid and late stages, such as the adaptogenic herbal combination of HPA Adapt, for mid-stage, and CortiVive for late stage, which supports healthy cortisol production and healthy adrenal cortex function.
