Adrenal Cortex by Seeking Health provides 50 mg of bovine adrenal cortex per capsule. The adrenal cortex substance used in this product is freeze-dried to preserve freshness and biological activity.
In the human body, the adrenal glands are located above the kidneys. Each adrenal gland is made up of two components: the cortex, which produces essential chemicals needed for normal metabolism and healthy stress response, and the medulla, which produces other (non-essential) chemicals. Together, these parts of the adrenal glands work to help the body maintain a healthy balance in many physiological processes.
The adrenal glands play a vital role in the complex series of physiological events and changes known as the “fight-or-flight” response, which enables us to effectively respond to environmental stressors or perceived dangers. While this response can be life-saving in certain situations, prolonged exposure to stress and other lifestyle factors that place a long-term burden on this response system may take a toll on the adrenal glands. Adrenal Cortex provides freeze-dried adrenal cortex that may contain nutrients or building blocks to support the body’s maintenance of healthy adrenal tissue.
As with any glandular extract or supplement, we recommend that you only use Adrenal Cortex when needed and as directed by a healthcare professional. For an herbal, vegan approach to adrenal support, consider our Optimal Adrenal formula.
