Cortisol Calm, 120 Capsules

This is a FANTASTIC product. IMPORTANT NOTE: the first time I took it I felt awful. I took one whole capsule about two hours before bed, I ended up feeling wired and couldn’t sleep well until about 2am and then had to go to work it was AWFUL. I say all that to say that I decided to have faith in the vitamin and the reputation. So I opened a capsule and poured half of the content into some juice and decided to take it slow and keep with it. Every single day I took half a capsule, by the 6th day I had it down to a science and it was working better than anything I could have expected. I’ve been on this supplement for almost three months and will continue to take this. I wake up some nights in the middle of the night but I am confident about going back to sleep. Whereas before I would wake up at 3am every night and stay up for the rest of the day. I was diagnosed with severe anxiety due to an overstimulated nervous system and this supplement really made my recovery to the next level. I rave about it to EVERYONE. My partner also started taking this supplement with me and she basically does the same thing, split capsule in some juice and is now sleeping better than she ever has. As of now we both take about 75% of the capsule.

Item seems to be working well

My husband has been sleeping for a few hours at night which is not good at all and I gave it to him with pure magnesium glycinate and cortisol two night’s ago and he slept for 7 and half hours and last night 6 and half. It works great for myself and him.

Ok the thing with reviewing supplements is, like any medicine, reactions and needs are individual. If you don’t have high cholesterol, and you take a statin, it’s not that statins are bad - it’s just not for you. I’d encourage other reviewers to add context to their reviews! My context is: with my doctor, we reviewed a bunch of symptoms and did some testing of my neurotransmitter and hormone levels over 24 hours. It was very apparent there was a problem with my cortisol cycles. They actually suggested I use a different supplement with similar ingredients that’s marketed 2 ways - as a cortisol manager and as a sleep aid (literally the same pills under 2 different sister brands and 2 labels). But that had soy which was problematic for me. This doesn’t. Or some other unnecessary fillers. This blend of ingredients helps some people with insomnia. Not the case for me. In fact at the start it amped me up a bit and I had to reduce the dose. What I did notice was, I woke up feeling ready to take on the day. I even started waking up early and thinking “hey I think I’ll start the day early.” After I picked my long time boyfriend’s jaw off the floor and convinced him I wasn’t on anything illegal, I became a morning person. Eventually it became easier to shut down at night too, especially taking one before bed. It didn’t solve everything on its own but it’s been an important component in regulating cortisol cycles, for me. New neurotransmitter and hormone tests show a change. I’m told to take a break now and then, switching to other adaptogenics, but I see this being something I use periodically, from now on.

Found this to help me with my sleep..... glad I ordered it.

Great product, clean ingredients

I have brutal insomnia. My doctor's and neurologists are baffled. I became resistant to all sleep meds. During one of my 30+ hours of no sleep, I read about cortisol. I'm desperate for sleep and ordered a bottle. My sleep meds are working again. It's wonderful! I might start looking for a job, but I need to be certain. I had to quit working because I can't work with no sleep, ( I used to work with explosives of all things). I'm believing my system spikes with cortisol all night and that is like a shot of adrenaline for me. I also feel my anxiety is calming down. It's been this way the past 7 nights. Sleep is beautiful.
