Botanical Support for the HPA Axis* with Lise Alschuler, ND, FABNO

This presentation will review the pathophysiology of recurrent stress, specifically focusing on the role of the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal axis (HPA axis) and will then review a botanically-based approach to remediation. Key lifestyle factors will be highlighted as well the roles of selected nutrients and botanical nervines as well as herbal adaptogens. Herbal adaptogens are unique in their ability to modify our response to stress while minimizing the deleterious physiological consequences of recurrent stress.*
