Description
A complex to reduce stress Zenivits contains a synergy of active ingredients based on B & C vitamins, zinc and phytonutrients including saffron and ashwagandha, which help the body manage stress. Saffron helps with chronic stress Saffron standardised in safranal and crocins has anti-depressive properties through its serotonergic, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory actions. Regarding anxiety, a randomised controlled trial showed that a dose of 30mg to 50mg of saffron/day over 12 weeks appears to have a significant impact on anxiety, with good tolerability. Ashwagandha supports people under stress As for ashwagandha, several studies have shown that an extract standardised in withanolides (minimum 15%) can reduce the effects and symptoms of stress and anxiety. In a study conducted on adults suffering from chronic stress, the group that received SHODEN® ashwagandha (120mg/day and 240mg/day) showed cortisol reduced by 10% to 30% and also reduced excessive noradrenaline production. Theanine and mental wellbeing Theanine was added to the formula to help modulate the sympathetic nervous system. Several randomised studies report a reduction in acute stress and anxiety with the intake of 200 mg of L-Theanine. This anti-stress effect is reflected in biological parameters: reduced heart rate, blood pressure and immunoglobulin A. Finally, a black horehound extract completes this synergy, with sedative and antispasmodic properties that help reduce stress and irritability.
