The COVID-19 pandemic and all the ways it changed our lifestyle seems to have started a secondary outbreak of stress. Although it’s not nearly as dangerous, this psychological state can have a deeply negative impact on your long-term health.
Research has already proven that stress can increase your risk of heart disease, insomnia, headaches, unhealthy weight gain and other potentially irreversible problems.
Generally, you may be able to prevent these physical issues by adopting a balanced lifestyle that includes a healthy diet, rest hours and exercise. However, there are times when stress simply takes over your mind, heart and body to the point of exhaustion and depression.
Sometimes you may need therapy sessions to examine the main stressors in your life and how you can overcome this stage of your life. Other times, supplementing your diet with vitamins and other nutrients can help you regulate the hormone production, thus improving your mental and physical states.
If you think you need therapy, please reach out for help anytime because prevention is always easier than treatment! My post right here reveals 7 important ways therapy sessions can change your life for the better.
Today, though, we’ll have a look at the other possibility – that of adding extra vitamins to your diet. Here are 5 nutrients and supplements that might ease some of your pandemic stress to live a better, healthier life.
