We all know those weeks where everything happens at once: doctor's appointments, deadlines, family obligations. And somewhere in between, you try to eat healthy and sleep enough. Spoiler: that last part usually doesn't work out.
But which supplements are actually useful during stressful periods? And where do you buy them at the best price? We investigated.
Why stress depletes your body
Stress increases cortisol production, which accelerates the consumption of magnesium, B vitamins and vitamin D. Targeted supplementation can help.
