How It Works:

Nature’s Sunshine’s and Chinese herbal combinations are based on 5000 years of Chinese herbal tradition. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), which includes the use of herbal medicine, continues to provide primary healthcare throughout Asia even in these modern times. AD-C is considered a chi-regulating formula. An important concept in TCM, chi (also known as qi) is the vital life energy of the body and is considered essential for all life. The chi flows through the body following pathways called meridians. The goal in TCM, according to ancient Chinese philosophy, is to keep the chi flowing unobstructed in order to maintain optimum health. Balanced chi, according to Chinese philosophy, also encourages an overall sense of well-being. The Chinese call this formula jie yu, which can be translated to mean “relieve anxiety and tension.” According to TCM, when the liver is functioning at its peak, positive mood may be maintained.

How It Works

The adrenal glands are responsible for secreting the stress hormones cortisol and adrenalin. Stress hormone levels rise when a person experiences stress and prepares the body for either a “flight or fight” response. These same hormones also happen to get us up in the morning to face the busy tasks of the day. But too much of a good thing — even cortisol and adrenaline — can be detrimental. The constant release of stress hormones can adversely affect energy levels, muscular strength, blood sugar levels, mood, sleep patterns, response to environmental stress, and cardiovascular and immune health. Modern lifestyle with chemical food additives, stimulants, caffeine, alcohol, electromagnetic fields (EMFs), work, traffic and family life can keep individuals in a constant state of stress, resulting in chronically high levels of stress hormone and adrenal gland exhaustion.
