What is stress management?

Stress management is the process of taking proactive steps to address stressors that are a part of everyday life, and trying to build resilience so that you can lead a more balanced life. Successful stress management starts with understanding the causes of your stress, recognizing the signs of it in your body and mind, and implementing effective strategies to help manage it. Some common stress management strategies include sticking with a healthy diet and exercise regimen, practicing relaxation techniques such as meditation and deep breathing, expanding your social support network, and engaging in enjoyable hobbies that promote a sense of well-being. Here at Natural Vitality, we believe that supplementing with our magnesium-based products can also help you relax, ease tension in both your body and mind, and support a healthy stress response.*

Why is it important to manage stress?

Stress is an inevitable part of life, and there is no realistic way to avoid it entirely. Some stress is good for you and has played a role in evolution, when the body’s innate "fight or flight" stress response protected against real or perceived dangers. Some common effects of stress include excess stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline circulating in the bloodstream, muscle tension and potential interference with sleep. There are many excellent ways to manage stress, and these strategies can help support a healthy body and mind and promote a better quality of life.

Can supplements help to reduce stress?

While supplements can’t directly reduce stress itself, certain supplements can support a healthy response to stress in the body. One of the most well-known of these is magnesium, which is the star ingredient in every Natural Vitality supplement formula. Our magnesium supplements feature highly absorbable forms of this important mineral, which plays a critical role in hundreds of processes in your body including many related to your natural stress response. It also plays a role in healthy nerve function and relaxation, which are both important aspects of managing stress and promoting a balanced mood.*

What are the best supplements for stress?

Determining the best supplements for stress can vary depending on individual needs, health status and the underlying causes of stress. However, several supplement ingredients can help promote relaxation, ease tension and promote a healthy response to stress. For instance, magnesium is an essential mineral involved in over 300 biochemical reactions in the body, including those related to stress response and relaxation. The best magnesium for stress would be one that is highly absorbable and bioavailable, like magnesium citrate, magnesium glycinate or magnesium L-threonate. Another supplement ingredient known to help support a healthy stress response is the relaxing amino acid,L-theanine.*

If you are taking magnesium for stress, there are many different ways it can help. For instance, healthy magnesium levels support muscle relaxation, easing tension and promoting a sense of calm. Magnesium is also involved in regulating neurotransmitters, including those that affect mood and stress response, such as serotonin and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). Additionally, magnesium helps to regulate cortisol production, which is a primary stress-related hormone. When looking for the best magnesium for stress, make sure it’s a highly bioavailable form.*

What type of magnesium is good for stress?

When choosing the best magnesium for stress, look for one with a form or forms of magnesium that are easily absorbed and highly bioavailable, like those in all of our Natural Vitality magnesium products. These include magnesium citrate, magnesium glycinate and magnesium L-threonate. Each of these magnesium forms feature magnesium bound to another compound, which enhances its absorption and use in the body.*

Taking magnesium supplements for stress can offer several benefits due to the role magnesium plays in the body’s stress response and overall wellbeing.

How should I choose the right magnesium supplement for stress management?

When choosing a magnesium supplement for stress management, first consider the form of magnesium in the product. Make sure the magnesium is highly absorbable and bioavailable, like magnesium citrate, magnesium glycinate or magnesium L-threonate, which we use in our Natural Vitality products. You can also consider a magnesium formula that includes complementary ingredients that also promote a healthy stress response. For instance, we include the relaxing amino acid L-theanine in our CALM Mind products and GABA, an amino acid that helps regulate the nervous system, in ourSLEEP products. Finally, make sure the magnesium supplement you choose is made by a reputable brand like Natural Vitality that adheres to strict quality standards and stands by their products with a 60-day money-back guarantee.*

Can I take a magnesium supplement daily to help with stress?

Consistency is key when it comes to taking magnesium for stress. Your body needs magnesium to perform hundreds of essential biochemical processes, including those related to your stress response. But your body does not manufacture magnesium on its own. That’s why it’s so important to maintain healthy magnesium levels through a wholesome, balanced diet and/or with magnesium supplementation. Remember to follow labeled dosage instructions for the magnesium supplement you choose because too much magnesium can cause digestive upset. And it’s always a good idea to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement regimen, including daily magnesium supplementation, to ensure that it is safe and appropriate in your specific case.*

If you are pregnant or considering pregnancy, we strongly encourage you to consult your doctor for guidance on whether magnesium is safe to take in your case.*

What is Natural Vitality CALM used for?

Natural Vitality CALM supplements are magnesium-based formulas that are primarily used to promote relaxation in both body and mind. We love magnesium for its calming benefits, but this essential mineral is involved in hundreds of processes in the body, and therefore supports your health in multiple ways. For example, your muscles need magnesium to contract and relax, so the more active you are, the more you need it to help support healthy muscle function, including the function of your body’s hardest working muscle—your heart. It also promotes healthy nerve and brain function, and aids in calcium and vitamin D absorption, which is important for bone health. These are just a few of the ways the highly absorbable magnesium in Natural Vitality CALM products can support your head-to-toe health.*

Does L-theanine help with stress?

L-theanineis an amino acid that is commonly found in green tea leaves. It is known for its potential calming and relaxing effects on the mind and body without causing drowsiness. It is believed that L-theanine increases levels of certain neurotransmitters in the brain, including gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), serotonin and dopamine, which are associated with relaxation. In these ways, L-theanine can help with your body’s response to stress.*

What are some effective stress management techniques?

Effective stress management techniques can help reduce the negative effects of stress on your physical and mental well-being. Start with healthy lifestyle habits. Eat a balanced diet rich in fruits, veggies, whole grains and lean proteins. Stay hydrated. Avoid excessive caffeine and alcohol. Get regular aerobic exercise to stay fit and to release endorphins—those "feel-good" chemicals in your brain. Try time management and prioritization strategies to help reduce feelings of stress. Consider mindfulness practices like meditation, deep breathing and progressive muscle relaxation, which can help calm the mind and release feelings of stress. Cultivate groups of people who can provide companionship, empathy and encouragement for emotional support and to buffer the effects of stress in your life.Here at Natural Vitality, we also strongly believe that supplementing with our magnesium-based products can support your health in many ways, including promoting a healthy stress response.*

How can I incorporate stress management into my daily routine?

A great way to incorporate stress management into your daily routine is to plan ahead and integrate small stress-busting measures throughout the day. Start your day with a calming mindfulness practice such as meditation, deep breathing or gentle stretching. Plan and prioritize your daily to-dos, including regular breaks when you can reset and refresh. Stay present and appreciate the sights, sounds, smells and other sensations around you in the moment. Take time at the end of each day to reflect on your experiences and to identify things you’re grateful for, no matter how small. A gratitude mindset can help shift your focus from stress to appreciation. Also, consider taking magnesium for stress management. Adding Natural Vitality magnesium-based supplements to your daily regimen can help you relax. And they come in powder, capsule and gummy forms so they’re easy to use wherever and whenever you need them.*

Are stress management supplements suitable for long-term use?

While we can’t speak to all stress management supplements, our Natural Vitality products are guaranteed to be safe when used as directed. Our formulas promote healthy magnesium levels in the body and can be most effective when used consistently. Your body doesn’t manufacture magnesium on its own, but this essential mineral is crucial for hundreds of biochemical processes that support overall health and wellness, including a healthy response to stress. However, it is always a good idea to consult your healthcare professional before adding any supplement to your daily regimen.*
