Stress - Portrait of a Killer

Long term production of the stress hormone cortisol has been linked to many severe health and aging conditions: Finding out how to lower your cortisol could be beneficial to your health.

In 2008 National Geographic produced a special entitled Stress “Portrait of a Killer” Featured on that special was University of Stanford Professor, Dr Robert Sapolsky, one of the most respected neurobiologists in the world. He and other eminent Phd’s explain how research shows that glucocortcoids, produced by our bodies under stress, are a blessing and a curse because of our modern culture and societal stratification. The main glcocorticoid in the body is called Cortisol – the Stress and Death Hormone.

Heal the Brain and Heal the Body–Makes sense doesn’t it?

Two separate Stress (Cortisol) studies on the fertilized egg powder in this product have been double blind placebo crossover studies. A double-blind study is an experiment designed to test the effect of a treatment or substance by using groups of experimental and control subjects in which neither the subjects nor the investigators know which treatment or substance is being administered to which group. These types of studies are “Gold Standard” A third confirming study on stress was just completed and will be published soon.

There is also a recent PBS American Health Journal special that has doctors and health experts discussing this food concentrate.
