Stress Support
Unresolved stress, whether physical, mental, or emotional in nature, has a negative effect on health. Regular or continuous stress weakens the immune system, increases the likelihood of illness, and slows the healing process. Researchers believe that stress contributes to as much as 80% of all major illnesses. Incorporating nutritional supplements that support a healthy stress recovery response, eating a well-balanced diet, sleeping restfully, getting regular cardiovascular exercise, as well as introducing relaxation practices such as meditation, yoga, and deep breathing into your daily life, will help buffer the effects of negative stress on your body. Resolving the source of stress is most important, but there is some support available for the stressed body systems.

Adrenal Cortex
$16.99
$16.99
Adrenal Cortex, made from bovine adrenal cortex tissue, supports healthy adrenal function and promotes an energetic feeling.
The hormones produced in the adrenal cortex are necessary for glucose metabolism, immune function, normal blood pressure, and more. In today's "high-stress" world, lifestyle habits that deprive us of adequate rest and exercise, along with dietary habits fraught with caffeine and refined sugars, can, over time, take their toll on the adrenal glands. Extracts from adrenal cortex tissue can play a valuable role in supporting healthy adrenal glands – and help maintain immune function and promote an energetic feeling. Glandular extracts also support healthy levels of cortisol. Thorne's Adrenal Cortex provides extracts of adrenal cortex tissue for focused support of normal adrenal function.
What part does the adrenal cortex play in maintaining health? The adrenal cortex is responsible for producing a special group of hormones known as corticosteroids. These hormones are comprised of glucocorticoids, mineralocorticoids, and 17-ketosteroids, and are essential for important homeostatic processes throughout the body. Glucocorticoids are necessary for glucose metabolism and immune function. Mineralocorticoids help maintain healthy electrolyte balance and already normal blood pressure. The 17-ketosteroids are associated with sex hormones produced by the adrenal glands.
Take 1 capsule one to three times daily, or as recommended by your health professional.

B-Complex #6
$22.99
$22.99
B-Complex #6 includes essential B vitamins. Its extra B6 is important for neurotransmitter synthesis, which is essential for stress and mood support. It can also help modulate fluid retention.
Most B vitamins, with the exception of vitamin B12, are not stored in the body; consequently, they must be acquired daily from the diet in order to maintain optimal health. Thorne's B-Complex #6 contains an optimal balance of essential B vitamins with extra vitamin B6. B-Complex #6 contains thiamine (vitamin B1), riboflavin and riboflavin 5'-phosphate (vitamin B2), niacinamide (vitamin B3), pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), pyridoxine and pyridoxal 5'-phospate (vitamin B6), methylcobalamin (vitamin B12), methyl-folate (5-MTHF), and biotin. Although each B vitamin is chemically distinct, they often work together in various biochemical functions throughout the body – from cellular energy production, to healthy red-blood-cell formation, to healthy neurological function. B-Complex #6 offer both pyridoxine and active pyridoxal 5'-phosphate to support brain function through neurotransmitter synthesis and neurological function through the formation of the myelin sheath surrounding nerve cells.* B6 can also help relieve the symptom of fluid retention and support a good mood in individuals with premenstrual syndrome (PMS).
Supplementing with active B vitamins is important for everyone, and especially for individuals whose livers may not be able to convert the non-active B vitamin forms to their active forms because of compromised liver function, poorly functioning enzymes, digestive disturbances, or age.
Pyridoxine (vitamin B6) and its bioactive form, pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (P5P), are essential for such processes as amino acid metabolism, neurotransmitter synthesis, and glycogen (storage sugar) breakdown. Pyridoxine and P5P are also involved in heme synthesis (necessary for hemoglobin), conversion of tryptophan to niacin, and the proper metabolism of fatty acids. Thorne's B-Complex #6 supplies 106 mg of pyridoxine HCl, 25 mg pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, and the bioactive forms of other B vitamins in each capsule to provide an optimally bioavailable B complex.
Take 1 capsule one to three times daily or as recommended by your health professional.

Pathway’s formula contains the full complement of B-complex vitamins as well as coenzyme forms. B vitamins work as a team and should always be taken together in specific ratios like those found in this formula.
