How to lower cortisol, the stress hormone

Based on scientific data and my experience. These are the herbs I've found to be most effective for lowering cortisol level.

1) Ginkgo biloba

2) Shisandra

3) Oatmeal - very high amount of natural magnesium per cup/serving which fights anxiety and lowers stress. Oatmeal is good for nerve twitches. I almost do not have them anymore.

These are the herbs that helped me most to overcome stress.

Other:
- Siberian ginseng is also a very good herb for stress, Depression and fatigue.
- A medium b-complex 10-15 mg per day (I do not like B-50 formulas because 50 mg of each b vitamin is too much).
- Watch out for vitamin deficiencies.


Good luck!
