In an important chapter of this
book, the author writes: "All right. We know that stress is
here to stay. What can we do about it? First, we must nutritionally
fortify ourselves so that we can withstand the demands of
life"....
In a section titled 'The
Anti-Stress Diet', the author says: "It is absolutely essential
that we re-evaluate what we can eat and sit down and plan for a diet
that will provide us with life-giving nutrients"
In a section under 'Herbal
Support', the author talks about the benefit of popular herbs and
how they might help us combat this disease. Herbs like Siberian
Ginseng, Golden Seal, St Johns Wort, Ginger and Gotukola can help in
promoting energy, stimulating the immune system and helping us
defend against the effects of stress on our body systems*
Also included in this book is a
useful 'case-study' that will help us relate to the often subtle
effects of stress that we can live with for many years, often
without even realizing the true cause.
Tip from
The Natural Shopper! - in our experience, stress can manifest in many
different forms, and quite often we do not realize what is happening
until the situation becomes chronic. We need to listen to those around
us whom may be giving us early warning signs that stress is becoming
an issue in our lives. Loved ones, friends, work colleagues might be
giving us feedback on how we are living our lives and highlighting
what might be the early symptoms of stress. Allowing the situation to
develop unabated can lead to serious health problems as well as
relationship damaging problems. Take the first step by acquiring
information on the subject, then take some basic steps toward changing
your situation before it gets out of control. We all have stress in
our lives, but we can learn to cope with it and learn to manage it and
provide our body with a defense against it through good nutrition,
diet and exercise. Start now with a supplement regimen that can help
you quickly. Consider the benefits of natural substances like Gotukola,
Ginger, Royal Jelly, Colostrum. They are not a substitute for tackling
the root cause of the problem, but they might help provide the
nutritional support that we need as we reorganize our priorities and
start to manage our lives better.
