Thorne Research Phytisone 60 Capsules

Adrenal Support Dietary Supplement Gluten Free Energy StressPhytisone is a unique non-glandular formula of botanicals and nutrients to help optimize the adrenal glands response to stress.When humans encounter a threat the adrenal glands release cortisol epinephrine norepinephrine and other chemicals that raise our heart rate blood pressure and blood sugar and constrict blood vessels to the digestive tract. This "fight or flight" reflex can be a life saver. However the constant low-level stress most of us feel today together with environmental pollution and diets that are high in refined carbohydrates can overstimulate and overtax the adrenal glands which can damage our immune cardiovascular neurological and endocrine systems and thus our long-term health. Phytisone provides botanical non-glandular support for the adrenal glands. Its unique combination of key adaptogen botanicals and nutrients help the adrenals optimize their response to stress.Astragalus membranaceus is used – typically in combination with ginseng – to promote energy and support immune function. Licorice root (Glycyrrhiza glabra) appears to have a modulating effect on cortisol activity. Ginger (Zingiber officinale) has the capacity to increase the absorption of other substances. Perhaps the two best-known adaptogens (substances that improve the bodys resistance to stress) are Panax ginseng and Eleutherococcus senticosus. An abundance of research demonstrates an enhanced response to physical and chemical stress as well as a beneficial physiological effect on the central nervous cardiovascular and endocrine systems following administration of Panax ginseng. Similarly ample evidence supports the use of Eleutherococcus to help normalize the bodys response to stress. Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) – often called Indian ginseng – is considered to be the preeminent adaptogen from the Ayurvedic medical system. Ascorbic acid thiamine (vitamin B1) pantethine (the active form of vitamin B5) pyridoxal 5-phosphate (the active form of vitamin B6) and zinc are included in Phytisone for their strengthening and supportive role in optimizing adrenal function.
