<h2>Why is important to manage stress</h2>
<p>Stress is a physical and/or mental response. It triggers the body’s “fight or flight” mechanism, releasing <strong>stress hormones</strong> like <strong>cortisol</strong> and <strong>adrenaline</strong>, leading to various physical and emotional reactions. </p>
<p>Stress can be caused by:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>External factors</strong> such as work pressure or life events</li>
<li><strong>Internal factors</strong> like thoughts and emotions</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Managing stress</strong> hormones is crucial because prolonged or excessive exposure to them can affect both physical and mental health. Managing your <strong>chronic stress</strong> will in turn, look after your cardiovascular and <strong>immune health</strong>, but also help with sleep, energy, concentration, and day to day stamina.</p>
<h2>Adrenal health & stress support</h2>
<p>The stress response’s main purpose is to keep us safe and out of danger. However, prolonged periods of stress and raised stress hormones, can lead to imbalance. Fortunately, there are lots of ways to be proactive about stress management, to look after your physical and emotional health. If you’re going through a difficult time, reach out to trusted friends and family, ask for help, and support your body with our <a href="https://www.healthpost.co.nz/health-concerns/stress-hormones/adrenal-health-stress-support/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Adrenal Health & Stress Support supplements</a>.</p>
<h2>Blood sugar support</h2>
<p>Stress triggers the release of hormones, which can elevate <strong>blood sugar</strong> levels. If you work to support healthy blood sugar levels, it can have a positive impact on energy levels, mood, and overall health.</p>
<p>Healthy daily eating habits and rituals are key to support stable blood sugar levels.</p>
