Adrenal assist contains vitamins, minerals and herbs that are specifically included to support health adrenal function.

Vitamin C – Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin that the body uses in many functions to support normal growth and development. Because it is water-soluble, any vitamin C that is consumed in excess of what the body needs is extracted through the urine. That means that you need to take this vitamin continuously to keep your levels in the desired range. Vitamin C helps form an important protein makes skin, tendons, blood vessels and ligaments. It works as an antioxidant and repairs damage done to cartilage, teeth and bones.

Vitamin B5 – Vitamin B5 is also water soluble. It is one of eight B vitamins that help the body convert food into fuel, which is used to produce energy. B vitamins also help the body properly use protein and fats. They also play an important role in nervous system function. Vitamin B5 is involved in manufacturing red blood cells and sex and stress-related hormones that are produced in the adrenal glands. Without adequate vitamin B5, your adrenal glands cannot function properly.

Magnesium – Every single organ in the body needs magnesium in order to function properly. It plays a large role in supporting overall bone health, and it activates enzymes and contributes to energy function. Magnesium is often referred to as the “calming mineral” because it is known to have a calming effect on the mind and body.

Vitamin B6 – Vitamin B6 is a water-soluble vitamin that is used to make antibodies that fight a number of diseases within the body. As one of the B complex vitamins, it helps maintain nerve function, makes hemoglobin, breaks down proteins and helps keep blood sugar in a normal range.
