Beat Stress with a Sparkling Coconut Cortisol Cocktail

by Cascade Ice on May 21, 2024

Feeling frazzled? We all do sometimes. Life throws curveballs, and our bodies react with a surge of cortisol, the fight-or-flight hormone. While cortisol is essential, chronically high levels can wreak havoc on our health. Enter the cortisol cocktail, a delicious and functional drink designed to support your adrenal glands and promote relaxation.

Cortisol cocktails are packed with nutrients that help your body manage stress. Here’s the breakdown:

• Electrolytes: Coconut water and a pinch of salt replenish electrolytes lost during stress, which can improve hydration and overall well-being.
• Vitamin C: Citrus juices are rich in Vitamin C, an antioxidant that helps combat stress-induced free radicals.
• Magnesium: This mineral is crucial for muscle relaxation and sleep, both vital for stress recovery.

With its delicious taste and stress-fighting properties, this sparkling coconut cortisol cocktail is a simple way to support your well-being. So next time you feel the tension rising, whip up this refreshing drink and take a moment to unwind. Your body will thank you!

Cortisol cocktails are perfect to drink in the afternoon when cortisol levels naturally begin to decline. Avoid them right before bed, as the citrus juices might be stimulating. A few key things to consider:

• Fresh is Best: Use freshly squeezed citrus juice for the most potent vitamin C boost.
• Need a little extra sweetness? Opt for a drizzle of honey if desired.
• Get Fizzy: Cascade Ice Sparkling Water in Coconut adds a fun, bubbly touch!
• Spice it Up: Feeling adventurous? Add a pinch of ginger or a dash of turmeric for extra anti-inflammatory benefits
