What is stress, and what helps relieve it?
Positive stress triggers a physical response that temporarily enables the body to perform better without causing any harmful effects. However, if stress becomes chronic, it can seriously harm both the body and the mind. Possible consequences include, among other things, a weakened immune system, an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, andmental health disorders.
Especially during stressful times, the body’s need for micronutrients increases significantly—particularly B vitamins, vitamin C, and magnesium. At the same time, the body’s ability to recover often suffers. That’s why it’s important to provide the body with all the essential nutrients it needs every day—all of which are included in ourMultivital Package—and to specifically support relaxation, mental balance, and stress resilience.
That is exactly why our scientific team has developed two nutrient packages:
- The Anti-Stress Packagecombines selected bacterial cultures with high-quality plant extracts, as well as biotin and magnesium, which contribute to the normal functioning of the nervous system and mental well-being.
- The Anti-Stress Package Plussupplements your diet with additional micronutrients such as vitamins B6, B12, and folate, which contribute to healthy mental function and help reduce tiredness and fatigue. Eight additional plant extracts, as well as L-carnosine and taurine, round out the formula.

What are the causes of stress?
Stress arises when external or internal stimuli are perceived as unpleasant. The causes of stress depend both on the nature of the stimulus and on one’s personal assessment and attitude toward it. Stress and its causes are therefore highly subjective: After ten minutes stuck in traffic, one person’s stress level may rise rapidly, while another reacts calmly. In addition, internal stimuli—such as worries and fears—can trigger psychological stress just as much as stress at work.
Even though everyone experiences stress differently, there are some stressors that cause most people to feel stressed. These include:
- Conflicts at work, in relationships, or within the family
- Overwork Due to Family and Work
- critical life events such as a breakup, job loss, serious illness, or the death of a loved one
- Little free time and a lack of balance with work
- Worries and Fears
Symptoms and Effects of Stress
Stress usually manifests itself through cognitive, emotional, physical, and behavioral symptoms. Early signs such as difficulty concentrating, mood swings, irritability, or sleep disturbances often develop gradually. Physical symptoms such as nausea, dizziness, or gastrointestinal problems also often go unnoticed until the stress becomes chronic.
However, chronic stress poses significant long-term risks:
- Cardiovascular Diseases
- Gastrointestinal disorders (often caused by a disrupted gut-brain axis)
- Burnout and Mental Health Issues
- Type 2 Diabetes
- Fatty Liver (Non-Alcoholic)
Thegut-brain axis—the communication system between the gut and the brain—also plays a central role in relation to stress. Chronic stress can disrupt the delicate balance of the microbiome, increase the permeability of the intestinal barrier (leaky gut), and interfere with the production of neurotransmitters such as serotonin. This affects the brain via the gut-brain axis and impairs emotional stability and stress resilience.
To avoid the consequences of stress, it is important to watch for warning signs early on and take specific steps to support your body and mind.
Symptoms of stress can be cognitive, emotional, physical, or behavioral in nature. These include, among others:
- Concentration problems
- racing thoughts
- Mood swings
- Irritability
- Diarrhea
- Nausea
- Dizziness
- too much or too little sleep
- Withdrawal from those around him
Long-term stress can be very dangerous. This is because a constant state of alert can deplete your physical and mental reserves. While acute stress can boost the body’s immune system, chronic stress can have the exact opposite effect. Possible consequences of chronic stress include:
- Cardiovascular Diseases
- Type 2 Diabetes
- Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
- Skin rashes
- Gastrointestinal Disorders
- Burnout
Ways to Cope with Stress
To effectively reduce stress, a holistic approach is important. Regular exercise, restful sleep, intentional relaxation, and a targeted intake of nutrients can help balance the stresses on the body and mind:
- Exercise: Just 30 minutes of exercise a day—such as jogging or biking—can help reduce stress hormones and improve your well-being.
- Nutrition: A balanced diet is important for reducing stress, as stress increases the body’s need for certain nutrients, such as B vitamins, magnesium, and coenzyme Q10.
- Sleep: Sleep is especially important for reducing stress, as it gives the body time to recover and reduces the release of stress hormones.
- Relaxation: To maintain a healthy balance, it’s important to incorporate enough rest periods into our daily lives. We should plan for at least one longer break of about 2 hours to help restore balance to areas of the body and mind that are under strain.
During stressful times, your body needs specific micronutrients thatsupportthenervous systemandenergy metabolism. These nutrients not only help you better cope with physical and mental stress, but also promote relaxation and stability.
For example, the following nutrientscontributeto thehealthy functioning of the nervous system:
- Minerals:Magnesium,Potassium, Iodine
- Vitamins B1, B2, B3, B6, B7, B12, and folate, preferably asa B-complex vitamin
- Vitamin C
OurPro Biom Anti-Stresscontains selected bacterial cultures and a high-quality saffron extract (Safr’Inside™). It is also supplemented with biotin, which contributes to the healthy functioning of the mind and nervous system.
In addition to the nutrients mentioned, stress—due to the body’s increased demands on energy metabolism and nervous system regulation—may lead to a higher need for other nutrients. These include, above all:
- Coenzyme Q10
- Carnitine
- Omega-3 fatty acids
- Polyphenols
- certain amino acids such as L-tyrosine
In daily life, in addition to rest breaks and sufficient sleep, a good supply of nutrients is also important. Pro Somnia Relax contains magnesium, which contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous system and mental well-being, as well as to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, as well as the milk peptide alpha-casozepine (Lactium®) and the patented asparagus extract ETAS®50.
