Stress & Resilience

Understanding stress — and counteracting it with the right nutrients

Stress is more than an unpleasant feeling — it changes your body on a cellular level. Chronic stress keeps your cortisol levels elevated, produces free radicals that attack your cells, and rapidly depletes essential nutrients. The result: your nervous system runs in overdrive, your energy reserves drain, and your body falls into a vicious cycle of exhaustion, over-acidification, and oxidative stress. But there is a way out — with the right nutrients, you can strengthen your body and build real stress resilience.

Oxidative stress — when free radicals attack your cells

Chronic stress produces free radicals — aggressive molecules that damage your cell membranes, proteins, and DNA. This oxidative stress accelerates aging, weakens your immune system, and increases your risk of chronic disease. Antioxidants neutralize these free radicals and protect your cells.

Active H provides the highest redox potential of all known antioxidants — it penetrates deep into the cells and neutralizes free radicals exactly where they form. eyeCQ combines fat- and water-soluble vitamin C with astaxanthin (one of the strongest natural antioxidants) and Q10 — for comprehensive cellular protection against oxidative stress.

Omega-3 (EPA) for calm nerves and a resilient brain

EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) from omega-3 fatty acids has anti-inflammatory effects and has been shown to lower cortisol levels. Chronic stress triggers silent inflammation in the body — omega-3 helps counteract this, soothes the nervous system, and supports brain regeneration. Studies show that EPA can reduce anxiety and stabilize mood.

AlgaeDHA provides EPA and DHA from pure algae — without the detour through fish oil, free from heavy metals, 100% vegan and sustainable. For calm nerves and a resilient brain — even in stressful times.

B vitamins and organic sulfur for the nervous system and detoxification

B vitamins are the true “nerve vitamins” — they support energy metabolism, the nervous system, and the production of neurotransmitters such as serotonin and dopamine. Vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) regulates your adrenal glands, which produce cortisol. In chronic stress, B vitamins are rapidly depleted — deficiency intensifies nervousness, exhaustion, and irritability.

SulfoCLEAN combines high-dose B vitamins (including B12) with organic sulfur (MSM), which supports your liver in detoxifying stress hormones. For strong nerves, mental clarity, and effective regeneration.

Amino acids — the building blocks for calming neurotransmitters

Neurotransmitters such as serotonin (happiness), dopamine (motivation), and GABA (relaxation) are built from amino acids. Stress increases your protein demand. Your body needs amino acids for cell repair, immune function, and the production of the neurotransmitters that regulate your mood and nervous system.

MyAMINO provides all 8 essential amino acids in an optimal ratio — highly bioavailable, gentle on your metabolism, and nearly calorie-free. For the production of calming neurotransmitters, better regeneration, and more inner balance.

Alkaline minerals against stress-induced over-acidification

Chronic stress acidifies your body. Cortisol, adrenaline, and an accelerated metabolism produce acidic waste products that disrupt your acid–base balance. The result: fatigue, muscle tension, weakened immunity — and even more stress. A vicious cycle.

VitalBASE provides alkaline minerals and apple pectin, which helps bind toxins and stress metabolites in the gut. For a balanced acid–base level, more energy, and fewer stress symptoms.

When should I start taking anti-stress nutrients?

Ideally before exhaustion sets in — preventively, during stressful life phases (work, family, big transitions). But even if you’re already dealing with chronic stress, it’s never too late: targeted nutrients can strengthen your body, build resilience, and accelerate regeneration.

Important: nutrients alone aren’t enough — combine them with mindfulness, movement, good sleep, and intentional breaks. This is the only way to break the cycle of stress and exhaustion sustainably.
