Your adrenal glands serve as important regulators of your core energy. When these glands are strong and well-nourished, we experience a profound sense of self-assuredness, we feel grounded and possess a strong will power. In this balanced state we can skillfully navigate our need for self-care and that of helping others. We have a sense of our feet firmly planted enabling us to remain steadfast on the path we have charted for ourselves. If you feel your core energy is weakened at this time of year, consider the formula Adrenal Support by Nature’s Sunshine combined with the adaptogen herb formula Suma Combination. These two formulas may help you to recover your vitality and inner strength while supporting your immune system during the fall season.
Adrenal Support is a wonderful formula to nutritionally support the body during times of prolonged stress. This formula provides specific vitamins, minerals and herbs which support optimal adrenal function and recovery from long term stress. Adrenal Support formula may help you respond to stress better, improve energy levels and give you a sense of stability during times of stress.
The Adrenal glands are small glands located on top of the kidneys. They produce a wide variety of hormones including cortisol, which helps regulate the immune system and control inflammation. Cortisol also regulates how your body converts fats, proteins, and carbs into energy. When your adrenal glands become sluggish it can lead to chronic fatigue.
Furthermore, your adrenal glands are instrumental in helping to keep your hormonal system in balance, they produce the hormones DHEA and pregnenolone which can be converted to estrogen, progesterone, or testosterone when the body requires an increase in these hormones. Consequently, supporting stress is critical for keeping your hormonal system functioning at optimal levels.
Suma Combination will further support your adrenal glands while also supporting a healthy immune response. If you have been struggling with a weakened immune system, consider the formula Suma Combination as a supplement for the upcoming fall season. Suma combination contains a combination of herbs which supports your body’s resilience to stress, fortifies the immune system, and naturally enhances energy production, mental clarity, circulation and stamina. This formula contains an impressive combination of herbs including Suma (Brazilian Ginseng), Echinacea, Astragalus root Extract, Eleuthero, Gingko extract, and Gotu Kola extract. A wonderful formula to add to your fall wellness regimen.
Balancing your Sinuses during Seasonal Changes
One of the main indicators of the change of seasons is the sudden drop in temperature at night and the resulting tickle or drainage in your throat. As this drainage becomes more pronounced, it becomes a welcome breeding ground for bacteria and viruses. The drainage can cause your ears to feel plugged, and you may feel nauseous in the morning due to drainage dripping into the stomach overnight. As soon as the weather dips and cools like this, I begin taking two burdock root capsules every evening. Burdock helps to minimize the reaction to temperature changes and stops the over-secretion of mucus which can cause you to be more susceptible to viruses.
Burdock Root is a wonderful plant that comes to help in times of seasonal changes.
If you are bothered by fall allergies, consider the formula Sinus Support EF as this formula contains burdock root so it helps with the sinus drainage from the change of seasons. It also contains herbs with expectorant and decongestant properties, as well as herbs to shrink swollen inflamed sinus passages and support your immune system. Sinus Support has always been a favorite of mine for the late summer allergies.
Seasonal Defense
Nature’s Sunshine’s Seasonal Defense is another formula I like to keep on my shelves in the early Fall. Seasonal Defense is a unique product designed to support our immune system during seasonal changes. The key herb in this formula is Andrographis paniculata. This herb activates the immune response in the body. Andrographis paniculata has been used for hundreds of years in China India and Scandinavian countries to help the body cope with upper respiratory tract infection, fever, and sore throats. It is often considered a preventative herb for the common cold.
