Chronic stress is not just a mental health issue. It is a documented immune suppressant with measurable physiological consequences.
Chronic stress elevates cortisol. Sustained cortisol suppresses lymphocyte (T cell and B cell) production, reduces natural killer cell activity and shifts immune response from cell-mediated (anti-viral) to humoral (less effective against intracellular pathogens).
Ashwagandha in SodaPeak helps regulate cortisol response. Exercise, sleep, social connection and stress management practices complement this. The goal is not eliminating stress but preventing chronic cortisol elevation.
Consistent daily routines, regular exercise, 7 to 9 hours of sleep, social connection and targeted supplementation collectively manage the stress-immune axis more effectively than any single intervention.
