Background: The effect of continuous stressful situations on general functioning and attention and concentration

There is a small hormonal gland that sits above the kidney and affects many processes in the body. A very important part of its activity is activated through hormones produced in the brain. The name of the gland is the adrenal gland or adrenal gland, and it releases many hormones into the bloodstream, including stimulating hormones such as cortisol and adrenaline.
The adrenal gland is activated by glands in the brain as a response to stressful situations and affects the body by increasing the strength of muscular reactions, ability to move, increasing heart rate, accelerating breathing and oxygen supply, suppressing inflammatory reactions and much more.
Stress can be caused by a physical or mental threat:

 physical threat such as quarrel, war, exposure to foods  pests such as coffee, cigarettes, alcohol, disease,

Or mental threat - different types of vulnerability, reality that we experience as negative, lack of adaptation to reality, etc. It is important to note that a mental threat can certainly be subjective, because a vulnerable and sensitive person will experience a threat even in situations that a normal person would not define as a threat.
When this pressure continues for a long time on the one hand, and sometimes also as a result of trauma on the other hand, a disruption is created. The disruption originates from over-activation of a system designed for emergencies. A situation of imbalance, fatigue or erosion of the gland is created which may lead to various health problems.

What are the symptoms that may develop from continuous stress or trauma?

What leads to overactivation of the adrenal gland which manifests itself mainly in hormonal imbalance and disruption of cortisol levels?

• Traumatic events increase the production of cortisol   which may damage the formation of synapses, which are the connections between nerve cells, and cause them great damage. Regularly high levels of cortisol harm learning abilities, memory functions, attention regulation and emotional reactions.  

• Among children who live in conditions of continuous distress, a high level of cortisol was found and is accompanied by impairments in intellectual, motor, social and emotional functions, and causes uncontrollable impulsivity. It is important to emphasize that distress is a subjective situation - what seems stressful to one child - is not stressful to another child.

• A too rapid increase in the cortisol level causes a disturbance in learning new things, in retrieving memories from the long-term memory mechanism and confusion.

• On the other hand, it is important to emphasize: a correct level of cortisol creates a state of attention at its best.

• Exposure to a high and continuous level of cortisol suppresses the immune system, such as the production of white blood cells, leading to inflammation and infections.

• Disruption of cortisol levels may impair sleep and lead to chronic fatigue.

• and may cause sweet cravings and weight gain and especially obesity in the abdominal area.

• The digestive system is very sensitive to stress hormones such as cortisol, and may develop nausea, abdominal pain, diarrhea or constipation. Cortisol and adrenaline associated with high levels of stress may cause irritable bowel, a feeling of panic or anxiety and even in extreme cases cause paranoia.

• A high cortisol level suppresses the production of serotonin - the hormone that makes us feel good and calm.

The partial list below explains why we made such a long introduction about the adrenal gland when the subject is attention and concentration.

Our approach to treating attention and concentration problems chooses the use of plants that work on dealing with stressful situations.

The basic plants in the formula are adaptogenic plants. This means - these are plants that help the brain cells, the adrenal gland, and the entire body to deal with continuous stressful situations. They improve memory, learning, ability to concentrate, and help in mental-emotional situations.
