Cortisol's effect on brain functions-

Or in other words: adrenal hormones - how they affect mental and functional abilities.

There is a hormonal course of response to stress that begins in two glands in the brain: the hypothalamus and the pituitary gland, and ends in the adrenal gland, which causes the secretion of the hormone cortisol. The phrase "adrenaline surged" refers to stressful situations that can cause extreme emotional reactions such as anger and anxiety. Less well known, but no less significant, is the concept of "rising cortisol" which affects the body as a response to stress by increasing the intensity of muscular reactions, ability to move, releasing sugars into the blood, increasing heart rate, speeding up breathing and oxygen supply, suppressing inflammatory reactions and much more. When a person is in a state of continuous pressure, known colloquially as "stress", there are disruptions in the production of cortisol in the adrenal gland - in the first stage cortisol levels rise and when the stress does not stop,  the adrenal gland and other systems in the body weaken and with them the ability stabilize cortisol levels. Stress can be caused as a result of an exam period, social stress, the burden of suppliers and pressures at work, multiple tasks in the household function, a persistent illness and even as a result of character - such as perfectionism, a tendency to anger, a tendency to vulnerability and emotionality, and more.

Disruptions in cortisol levels damage nerve and brain cells, learning abilities, memory functions, attention regulation and emotional reactions. They disrupt learning ability and reduce retrieving memories from the "long-term memory" mechanism, and cause confusion. In addition,  they affect  other systems as well: they damage the body's immune system and may cause nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea and constipation. Giga contains adaptogenic plants, i.e. plants that help to adapt and cope with stressful situations and regulate secretion and response to cortisol.

 

 

memory disorders -

Most of the time, the problem is mainly in damage to "short-term memory" (up to a day). This memory is located in the frontal cortex and from there the information is transferred to the long-term memory store located in the 2 temporal lobes of the hippocampus. Average ability is to remember up to 9 items.  This disorder causes difficulty in learning new things, a decrease in the ability to express and use the right words, orientation and navigation difficulties. The causes of memory impairment are various and varied:

• old age

• Vascular diseases: diabetes, hypertension and blood lipids, overweight, stroke, heart attack and tumors

• Taking certain medications (mainly for depression, sleeping pills, chemotherapy, steroids, beta blockers)

• Lack of essential vitamins and minerals such as B1, B12, Folic acid, iron, zinc and more (especially common in the elderly due to the difficulties of digestion and absorption).

• Childbirth - memory loss as a phenomenon that appears in women after childbirth.

• Thyroid inactivity

• Head injury, convulsions, post trauma.

• Alcoholism causing vitamin B1 deficiency and drugs.

• All the plants in Giga's composition, especially ginkgo, support memory and brain functions, and improve short-term memory capacity that has been impaired as a result of one of the reasons mentioned.

 

-  Nutrition and lifestyle to reduce the appearance of memory disorders

The consumption of the following foods should be preferred:

• fatty acids kind of vitality Omega 3  Also found in fish oil, flax oil and chia oil, and lecithin found in egg.

• Vegetables and fruits that are used as antioxidants such as garlic, onions, cherries, carrots, red grapes or dark raisins, pomegranate.

• Foods containing B vitamins such as: whole grains (whole rice, oats, quinoa, grits, etc.), legumes (lentils, beans, etc.), vegetables (leafy green vegetables, sprouts, root vegetables, etc.), fruits (apples, pears, papaya, etc.) and beer yeast. B vitamins  are essential for maintaining the health of body systems in general and the nervous system in particular.

• Simple carbohydrates such as sugar, white flour, cakes and cookies. Consuming simple carbohydrates causes a rapid increase and decrease in the blood sugar level which results in the release of hormones such as adrenaline and nor-adrenaline which stimulate the sympathetic nervous system and cause nervous imbalance.

• Alcoholic beverages - the alcohol may prevent absorption of  B vitamins (mainly B6, B1, andFolic acid) that are used for the proper functioning of body systems in general and the nervous system in particular.
