Cortisol spikes now gone, duration improved!
(Personal experience)
Often it seemed my vyvanse would randomly heighten my anxiety and stress at random times throughout the day. I’ve been taking vyvanse for over 2 years and this only became an issue over the last 6 months (during this period the medication doesn’t seem to work as well either). Anyway I came to realise this was also the same time I also stopped supplementing Ashwaghanda powder daily. Long story short I’ve restarted supplementing for 8 days now and my cortisol induced stress/anxiety, high heart rate etc waves are basically gone now as well as seeing an improvement in the medications overall effectiveness and duration!
There is solid biochemical evidence as to why this may be the case which I will post below.
