Integrative Therapeutics – Cortisol Manager – Supplement with Ashwagandha and L-Theanine – Supports Relaxation & Calm* – 30 Tablets

Solved My Problems with PMDD!!!
Recently I was diagnosed with PMDD which is an acronym for Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder. It’s basically a severe form of PMS where the “dysphoria” you experience is everything direct opposite of euphoria. Basically for an entire week every month you are a miserable wreck. Many women suffer from this problem, especially after having children or later in your reproductive years from 35-50. You are very easily triggered to fly off into rages, you’re severely depressed, suffer from insomnia, have anxiety attacks and pretty much lose all interest in your life. You basically have to sequester yourself as much as possible during this time period so the only person you make miserable is you and not the rest of the world. The thing is it’s not “all in your head” . A delicate dance exists between your hormones and neurotransmitters in your brain. My doctor prescribed an anti-depressant to help, but I was reluctant to take it only because I think anti-depressants mask an underlying problem and don’t fix it. I also personally believe anti-depressants are bad for your brain long-term. However, I was so miserable and my life felt hijacked for about 10 days each month surrounding my period. I was desperate enough to cave and just take the anti-depressants. I told myself, “Ok I’m going to make an effort to try to solve this by more natural means, but if it doesn’t work I am just going to have to take the anti-depressant because I can’t live like this”. I began researching about how to balance hormones naturally. Aside from the PMDD I also suspected I may suffer from too much cortisol and perhaps adrenal fatigue. I work almost full-time, run a business, go to school and take care of two small children. I must add too that I am a certified holistic health coach so my diet is also pretty healthy and balanced. So I have that working in my favor as well. I began taking more probiotics and eating more prebiotic food so my gut could manufacture neurotransmitters successfully. Anyway I initially bought this supplement to manage my stress, and much to my pleasant surprise it cleared up all my PMDD symptoms entirely!!!!! Usually the misery starts a week to 10 days before my period and absolutely nothing happened this past month. I had been taking the Cortisol Manager for approximately 3 weeks. I didn’t even know I was getting my period and felt absolutely fine! I was surprise when it started and only felt some slight irritability the first two days of my cycle. This is such a tremendous relief for me and I am so grateful to have found this product. I ordered a second bottle today and I actually want to start selling these supplements in my health coaching practice!!! The cortisol manager works very and I had positive results I wasn’t even expecting! Thank you so much to manufacturers of this product to save me from having to take anti-depressants to solve a problem that is more hormone based!!!

Effective for those who need high potency
This is an easy to swallow, odorless, ivory colored capsule. It calmed my mind getting ready for sleep on the first three nights that I took it. Night 4-10 I had extremely vivid and intense dreams. I woke up feeling mentally and emotionally exhausted. My doctor said the level of Ashwagandha was much too potent for me and I discontinued use. My sleep went back to normal after a few days. This is a clean formula and a favorite supplement of functional medicine practitioners. It can be positively life changing for many. It just wasn’t a good fit for me and my needs.

A New Staple for High-Stress Periods
I really like this brand overall—I’ve taken their Berberine and Detox Factors supplements as recommended by my functional doctor, and they’ve been great.For years, I struggled with insomnia, often waking up at 4 AM with no ability to fall back asleep, especially when my job had me at a breaking point. This supplement has made a real difference.I’ve found that two capsules are too much for me, but one paired with 500mg of magnesium glycinate before bed works perfectly. My functional doctor recommends taking it an hour or two before bed, but for me, taking it right as my head hits the pillow works best.I’m typically not sensitive to supplements, but this one is just right at a lower dose. It’s officially a new staple for me during high-stress periods. I’ve already gone through 3 bottles and just ordered my 4th. Highly recommend!

Full 8hours of sleep
This is the best product that I have tried to help with restful and peaceful sleep.
