Blender’s Notes Mood Balance ~ Pauly Putz ~ Glarin Karin~ Micro-Nutrition:
Steep Me Micro-Nutrition combinations are a wonderful way to get health benefits of different combinations of Vitamins and Minerals. With this blend we are providing a healthy and potent blend of minerals and vitamins for balancing your mood! Major Factors That Affect Mood include stress and poor sleep quality are two big factors that influence mood. One of the quickest ways to elevate a person’s mood is to improve their sleep quality. Human sleep is one of the least understood body processes, but its value to human health and proper functioning is without question. Impaired sleep, altered sleep patterns, and sleep deprivation is linked to depression and impairs mental and physical function. Nutrient deficiency, hormonal imbalances, and faulty blood sugar control are other big factors that can lead to mood fluctuations. While the human brain only makes up 2% of our overall body mass, it is the most metabolically active tissue. It requires a steady stream of nutrients, hormones, and other factors to function optimally. A deficiency of any single nutrient can lead to lowered mood scores and mental function, especially deficiencies of vitamin B12, folic acid, other B vitamins, and omega-3 fatty acids. Additionally, many drugs (prescription, illicit, alcohol, caffeine, nicotine, etc.) can lead to fluctuations and disturbances in mood either directly or through causing nutrient depletion. 5 Natural Ways to Boost Your Mood｜ iHerb Blog
In this blend we started with our Steep Me Medicinal Mushroom Blend. Steep Me Medicinal Mushrooms with the high concentration content have been known for its potential benefits on brain health and cognitive function. It has a potential role in alleviating depression due to its neuroprotective effects, stimulation of nerve growth factor (NGF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), anti-inflammatory properties, and antioxidant capabilities. The mushrooms may be able to raise dopamine levels in which Dopamine and serotonin—often called the “happy hormones”—are vital neurotransmitters regulating emotions and pleasure. It has shown antidepressant-like effects by enhancing the neurogenesis in the hippocampal region (which shrinks in depression). The mushrooms are an adaptogen because they help the body cope with stress and improve overall physical and mental well-being. Adaptogens are natural substances that help the body adapt to stressors and restore balance to the body’s systems without producing adverse effects. Next, we added Ashwagandha. Ashwagandha can help the body adapt during times of stress, it interacts with the body’s hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, which initiates the stress response and significantly decreases levels of stress and cortisol in the body. Vitamin C was added because it can improve your mood and a significant reduction in anxiety and depression. Boron because its roles are diverse and important, especially in your metabolism and other functions that involve maintaining homeostasis. Boron helps your body absorb magnesium better. Magnesium is an important mineral for hundreds of functions in your body. Fortunately, these two minerals work together to keep you feeling your best. Boron also impacts how your body uses calcium and phosphorous. Boron is so good at preventing vitamin D deficiency is worth discussing. And the way in which boron prevents vitamin D is fascinating. It increases the biological half-life of vitamin D levels in your body. Meaning, it prolongs the amount of time vitamin D stays in your body in a useful form. Vitamin D3 because it aids in treating seasonal affective disorder, a form of depression that occurs during the winter months, regulation of certain neurotransmitters like dopamine and it helps generate a hormone that helps activate the genes necessary to release neurotransmitters such as serotonin and dopamine. Steep Me Magnesium Blend because it has antidepressant qualities that may contribute to increased dopamine levels and a decreased risk of depression and supports a balanced stress response. Magnesium is critical in regulating the autonomic nervous system (responsible for blood pressure, heart rate and other physiological functions) and modulating the stress response. Deficiencies in magnesium are associated with heightened anxiety, irritability, insomnia, and depression. We also added in Zinc. Zinc can positively affect your mood because it works on the brain by blocking NMDA receptors and blocking over-excitability and inflammation in the brain. Zinc has also been found to increase a compound called BDNF (“Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor”) in the hippocampus and the cerebral cortex. BDNF is integral for learning, regulating mood and lowering inflammation.
We also added in our Steep Me Vitamin B Blend. Various Vitamin B’s are essential for cell metabolism and central nervous system maintenance, production of mood-boosting brain chemicals, including dopamine and help maintain a positive mood. They are vital for nerve functioning and help improve some neuropsychiatric disorders like depression. Vitamin B is involved in the production of serotonin, a neurotransmitter that enables brain cells and other nervous system cells to communicate. Too little serotonin can play a role in depression. They were included because they boost mood and energy, help the body in the creation of new cells and can help synthesize serotonin, which is a neurotransmitter involved in mood regulation. Serotonin, dopamine, and GABA are linked to increased risk of stress disorders, anxiety and depression and a larger intake of Vitamin B improves stress resilience by optimizing neurotransmitter synthesis and supporting a healthy stress response. Maca Root was added because it can help increase sexual desire and help combat mood swings in both sexes. Its most potent function is an endocrine one: consuming maca could balance estrogen and progesterone in the body and alleviate symptoms associated with hormonal imbalance. By that, it can also improve and stabilize mood and enhance overall wellness. Iron because the biggest signs of an iron deficiency are low energy, chronic fatigue, and mood changes. Chasteberry because it decreases levels of the hormone prolactin, a reproductive hormone, which then helps to balance levels of estrogen and progesterone and then balances your mood. Omega 3 was added to help depression and other psychological problems and can cross the blood-brain barrier and modulate neurotransmitters while supporting an appropriate inflammatory response. It plays a significant role in brain health. They are especially beneficial when it comes to improving symptoms of depression, cognitive functioning, and overall mood. Finally, we included R-Alpha Lipoic Acid which is a powerful antioxidant made in the body that assists in regenerating other antioxidants, such as vitamin E, vitamin C and glutathione. Taking alpha lipoic acid can help bolster your health, reduce your risk of developing chronic diseases and may even slow memory loss. R-Alpha Lipoic Acid is a potent antioxidant that can combat oxidative stress. Additionally, R-Alpha Lipoic Acid helps recycle other antioxidants such as vitamins C and E, CoQ10, and glutathione—a crucial antioxidant for nervous system function, improves energy production within the mitochondria (the cell’s “powerhouse”) which may contribute to reducing dementia symptoms.
