THE NEED FOR MORE ENERGY: PERQUE ADRENO DISTRESS GUARD
Over eighty percent of people cite ‘lack of energy’ as the
most common reason for coming to a physician. Low energy
is a symptom of adrenal fatigue also known as Addison’s
hypoadrenalism. Other common signs of low adrenal function
include:
• An uncontrollable need to eat
• Unusual mood swings
• Lack of restorative sleep...being tired or less than refreshed
when one wakes up. As a result, people often push
themselves to continue functioning; however, usually with
the help of stimulants like coffee, cola, or sugar.
PERQUE Adreno Distress Guard is a natural, non-stimulating
product that effectively rehabilitates the body’s energy system
at the cellular level so the glands can again function in youthful,
resilient, and effective ways while not over-taxing an exhausted
gland.*
PERQUE Adreno Distress Guard uniquely combines special
forms of Rhodiola, Magnolia, and Phellodendron micellized in
perilla oil and Medium Chain Triglycerides derived from raw palm
fruit. Only PERQUE Adreno Distress Guard restores adrenal
energy, improves thyroid hormone function, and enhances
immune hormonal functions with evidence-based science to
support the safer, trophorestorative rehabilitation of energy
molecules (adrenalines) and control hormones like cortisol and
DHEA.*
- Rhodiola rosea calus / roseroot rhizome:
Rhodiola rosea is a popular plant in traditional medical systems
in Eastern Europe and Asia and works on harmonizing the
central nervous system, decreasing depression, enhancing
work performance, eliminating fatigue, stabilizing moods, as
well as working as a healthy mood regulator. Cardio-protective
functions have also been attributed to rhodiola in traditional
medical literature. Research also demonstrates utility in
restoring healthy sleep rhythms, poor appetite, irritability,
idiopathic hypertension, and unexplained headaches. The
mechanism by which Rhodiola rosea calus works is based on
action of activity of monoamines (adrenalines, dopamine, etc.)
and opioid peptides such as beta-endorphins in the body.1 The
biologically active substances salidroside, rosin, and rosavin
present in the rhizome of the plant increase the ability to
concentrate and enhance mental and physical power.2 Only
PERQUE assures the use of the active, safer, effective rhodiola
form.*
2. Magnolia and Phellodendron extracts: PERQUE Adreno
Distress Guard uses Relora®, an all-natural, proprietary,
patented extract of Magnolia officianalis and a proprietary
extract of Phellodendron amurense. Magnolia officianalis is a
tree native to the rainforests of China. Its bark has long been
used in a variety of ways, including for the use of stress and
anxiety control. Phellodendron amurense, from the Amur
corktree, grows in northeastern China and Japan.
Together, these extracts support or restore levels of the
cortisol and DHEA hormones in the body. This promotes
the management of stress-related issues.3 Magnolia and
phellodendron work together by binding to stress hormone
receptors in the nervous system to promote relaxation and
feelings of well-being, yet do not attach to the benzodiazepine
receptors associated with sedation and dependency.
A special benefit noted by many is reduced stress-related overeating. James Lavalle, ND, RPh, CCN from The Living Longer
Clinic in Cincinnati, OH studied the effects of these extracts on
cortisol and DHEA levels as well as stress-related eating habits
in over 500 people. Elevated first morning cortisol levels were
lowered by 37% (over one-third!), and DHEA increased by
227% (more than doubling this helpful anabolic hormone). In
addition, stress-related snacking on sweets, such as ice cream,
cake, pie, and cookies was reduced by 76% in those individuals
who reported they ate these foods under stress.
3. Perilla oil plus MCTs: PERQUE Adreno Distress Guard
is micellized for maximum absorption and efficacy.* Perilla
oil and MCTs provide a unique combination of energetically
active essential oils that are also natural stress-reducing agents.
Perilla oil comes from Perilla frutescens seeds. Perilla oil is
rich in omega 3 fatty acid [alpha-linolenic acid (ALA)]. ALA
stimulates repair and can be called anti-inflammatory on this
basis. It also has cardioprotective effects by preventing arterial
blood (platelet) clots and reducing overly active platelet
aggregation4,5. MCTs derived from raw palm fruit soak up cell acids and produce energy in the mitochondria. MCTs are easy to assimilate
and metabolize in the body, especially important to those with delicate stomachs or who are rebuilding their digestion.
PERQUE’s unique combination of the special forms of rhodiola and magnolia energized by Perilla and MCT oils delivers the first adrenal
support product that works at the cellular level in the brain, gut, and the adrenal glands to more safely and effectively recharge the overly
stressed or exhausted person.*
