Calm CP 

About Calm CP

Calm CP is a formula that has been specifically designed to help the body reduce its cortisol production as a means to respond to stress efficiently and combat the increase of blood glucose and its health-harming effects. Thanks to its carefully selected ingredients, Calm CP manages to combat all symptoms related to elevated cortisol levels, including sleep problems, and more. As a result, you get to enjoy peaceful sleep, a manageable stress response, and balanced blood sugar levels.

How Calm CP Works

When we are under stress, our body boosts the production of cortisol in response to the stressor that is causing us anxiety. This activity inhibits the secretion of insulin (and its actions) while also encouraging the creation of fat cells, which, in turn, contribute to the production of cortisol. As you can understand, you enter a never-ending cycle of cortisol-related stress and weight. Also, studies have evidenced that individuals who experience high cortisol levels at bedtime tend to have more abdominal fat than those who do not. Calm CP contains more than 10mg of active corosolic acid derived from a highly standardized Banana leaf extract, which has been found to drop blood glucose levels significantly (about 20-30% after 15 days).

Health Risks Related to High Cortisol Levels

Also known as the stress hormone, cortisol plays a vital role in the way the body responds to stress. However, cortisol is much more than that. The majority of the human body cells have cortisol receptors that use cortisol for different functions, such as the regulation of the metabolism and the blood sugar, the reduction of inflammation, and the formulation of memory. Nevertheless, although the body needs cortisol for fundamental functions, too much of it can wreak havoc on it. Some of the symptoms tied to elevated cortisol levels are:

• Thinning skin
• Weight gain (primarily around the upper back and middle section)
• Rounding of the face
• High blood pressure
• Acne
• Flushed face
• Irritability
• Slowed healing
• Headache
• Easy bruising
• Difficulty concentrating
• Muscle weakness
• Severe fatigue

Most of the time, the body produces too much cortisol due to:

• Stress – Stress initiates a response in the body that sends signals from the nerves and hormones to the adrenal glands, forcing them to release cortisol, adrenaline, and other hormones. At that time, the heart rate increases, as does the energy levels, as part of the flight-or-fight response, which prepares the body to deal with the stressor and its potentially harmful effects. The body tries to limit any function that is not needed in the flight-or-fight response with the help of cortisol, so all of its energy goes to dealing with the “threat”. Although this could be lifesaving in cases of an emergency, prolonged exposure to cortisol can increase the risk of many health issues, from depression and anxiety to obesity and heart disease.
• Pituitary Gland Problems – The pituitary gland is a very small organ located at the base of the human brain whose role is to control the production of different hormones. Any imbalance in the pituitary gland can lead to the over- or under-production of hormones, including a specific hormone that triggers the adrenal gland to secrete cortisol. Such imbalances may even cause adenomas and cancerous pituitary tumors.
• Insomnia – Cortisol is the hormone that ensures the body and mind is awake and asleep when it is supposed to. When we wake up, our cortisol levels increase dramatically and then reach normal levels throughout the day. Now, if the cortisol levels remain high, you may suffer from insomnia or interrupted sleep and stay in a state of arousal all around the clock.

Calm CP Ingredients

The formula contains a proprietary blend of:

Banana leaf extract (Lagerstroemia speciose) – The corosolic acid in this compound inhibits a key enzyme that plays a vital role in the conversion of cortisone into cortisol.

Soy Lecithin (Phosphatidylserine enriched) – An ingredient mainly found in the membranes of the cells and helps regulate the stress response and dampen hypothalamic signaling.

Glycine – A neurotransmitter that crosses the blood-brain barrier and binding the temperature-regulating receptors which act during sleep.

Taurine – An amino acid that promotes peaceful sleep and calmness while also providing antioxidant protection.

Other ingredients: Silicon dioxide, magnesium stearate (vegetable source), microcrystalline cellulose, HPMC (vegetable capsule), water.

Notes:

• The recommended dose is two (2) capsules up to twice a day unless otherwise directed by your healthcare provider. In any case, do NOT exceed the suggested use.
• Always consult your healthcare practitioner before taking any supplements (nutritional or dietary), especially if you are nursing, pregnant, or taking medications.
• Refrain from using the product if the tamper-evident seal under the cap is missing or broken.
• The formula contains lecithin from soy, so it could cause an allergic reaction to individuals that are sensitive to this compound.
