What is Cognitive Ultra?
Cognitive Ultra W/ Relora is a professional grade nutraceutical that combines two potent herbal extracts that have been carefully selected for their ability to support healthy stress response, and mood management. Cognitive Ultra W/ Relora has been expertly developed to promote balanced levels of cortisol, which is commonly known as the “stress hormone”. In addition to helping manage cortisol, this professional grade nutraceutical also has the potential to help reduce stress-related cravings for carbohydrates as well as regulate melatonin to support healthy sleep patterns.
The Ingredients
Relora®
A proprietary blend that contains extract from the barks of two unique Asian herbs. Combining magnolia (Magnolia officinalis) and phellodendron (Phellodendron amurense) extracts results in powerful adaptogenic properties that promote a healthy balance of cortisol levels. With optimal cortisol levels, the body is better equipped to respond to stressful situations and reduce the risk of chronic stress, anxiety and stress-related overeating.
Bacopa Monnieri
A herbal remedy that has been used for centuries in Ayurvedic medicine to support healthy stress response and cognitive function. This ancient blend combines two plant-based chemical compounds known as bacosides A and B. In addition to supporting proper stress response and brain function, Bacopa is rich in antioxidant content and has been long recognized for its neuroprotective properties.
Why do you need Cognitive Ultra with Relora?
Stress response is an ongoing process in which the body tries to promote feelings of calm and return to stasis after exposure to stressful situations. The body produces a hormone known as cortisol in order to promote these feelings of calm throughout the body, earning it the nickname “stress hormone”. When this process is running smoothly, the cortisol effectively promotes feelings of calm and helps to address the symptoms of stress. Unfortunately, extended periods of stress can actually lead the body to produce too much cortisol and possibly lead to chronic stress. This condition essentially keeps the human body in a negative feedback loop where the function of cortisol receptors declines, so various stressful situations can just build on one another with no end in sight. Thankfully, the nutraceutical industry has spent many years developing products that can naturally support the body’s natural stress response and address more serious conditions like chronic stress and anxiety.
Responding to stress is not cortisol’s only responsibility either. The stress hormone is also known to support healthy metabolic function, inflammation response, blood sugar regulation and management of the body’s sleep-wake cycle. When stressful situations arise, the adrenal glands produce cortisol and send it through the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis where it can be regulated and dispersed throughout the body as needed. While issues and conditions with either the pituitary or adrenal glands can lead to high cortisol levels, chronic stress is the most common source. When the body’s stress response network is functioning optimally, cortisol levels will return to a balanced state when periods of stress end. However, repeated exposures to extended periods of stress can eventually lead to chronic stress, which then causes the body to overproduce cortisol while trying to return to stasis. When cortisol levels are constantly high, the body can experience a spectrum of life-altering symptoms and conditions, such as:
- Anxiety
- Fatigue
- Issues with focusing
- Decreased bone mass
- Sleep issues
- High blood sugar levels
Trying to address or manage any of these symptoms can be difficult enough, but they can also eventually lead to more serious health conditions if not addressed properly. Some of these conditions include depression, Type 2 diabetes, osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease. The best way to end this seemingly-infinite process of having to deal with stress and its many effects is to somehow return cortisol levels to a balanced state. There are a variety of lifestyle management techniques that can help reduce stress and, by extension, cortisol levels. Proper diet, exercise, improving sleep patterns and meditation are just a handful of ways that people can reduce stress. However, all of these methods can be very difficult when a body is experiencing chronic stress and its consistently-high cortisol levels.
