Would you like to discover the top 10 best herbs for your nerves?
These 10 herbs fight chronic inflammation and body toxicity so that your nervous system
can perform at its very best.
The nervous system is your body's control center.
The output of a nerve impulse starts in your brain and travels down a neuron, which reaches
out to other neurons by releasing chemicals called neurotransmitters.
These travel through gaps between nerves that are known as synapses before they reach their
target organs or muscles cells, where they cause an electrical signal to be sent across
those membranes so that you can move throughout the world, perform daily functions, think
clearly and maintain health inside your body.
Your nerves are like a communication network for your body.
When something happens to them, they can't communicate with the rest of you!
This means that pain will linger until it's fixed or in some cases chronic illness forms
as a result of nerve damage.
That's why, if you want your body to function at maximum capacity then it is extremely important
for you to make sure your nervous system works properly!
In today's video, we're going to explore the top 10 best herbs your nervous system will
thank you for.
They possess powerful antioxidants and nutrients to combat chronic inflammation and neutralize
damaging free radicals - two of your worst enemies when it comes to maintaining good
health for your entire body!
These natural remedies may alleviate nerve pain, help damaged nerves regenerate and literally
calm your nervous system.
And there have been countless studies confirming the effectiveness of these herbs over time,
so be sure you watch till number 1 cause we've got at least one surprise in store for you!
So if you’re ready let’s get into it.
As always, this video is educational and does not construe medical advice.
Please consult your doctor or natural health practitioner if you're planning to take any
of these herbs along with your medications.
Let's start with our Number 10 - Chamomile.
If you had chamomile tea before, you know how relaxing it is.
This herb has been used for centuries as an anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-psychotic
alternative medicine.
Taking a chamomile extract is also a great way to protect your brain, particularly if
you are prone to nightmares, depression, anxiety, and sleep problems.
Also, the azulene extracted from the the chamomile flower has been found to be effective in treating
nerve pain when applied as an essential oil.
The next herb we will discuss is Number 9 - Rosemary.
You love the smell of rosemary, but did you know it also has many health benefits?
Rosemary contains polyphenols and terpenes, two powerful antioxidants that can help stop
free radical responses that lead to inflammation in your body.
With better blood flow as a result of using this herb, there is increased oxygen for your
brain which helps combat diabetes-related neuropathy or nerve damage from high glucose
levels in the bloodstream.
Next, we definitely have to mention our Number 8 - St. John's Wort.
St. John's wort is an important herb that has been used for centuries to treat nerve
pain and other conditions of the nervous system.
Studies show it can relieve acute thermal and chemical pain, as well as nerve injury,
including that related to chemotherapy-induced neuropathic pain.
It also repairs the nerve sheath, making it an effective herb for long term results.
You can take St John's Wort as a tincture, capsule or a tea.
The next herb that's good for your nerves is Number 7 - Lemon Balm.
This citrusy herb is called "lemon balm" because it gives off a strong scent that has been
known to help with nervous system disorders.
Lemon Balm balances levels of neurotransmitters in your brain, including GABA and serotonin.
This can improve moods as well as cognitive performance!
Drinking this tea or taking supplements is healthful for you - take your pick!
Moving on to our next herb, our Number 6 is Passion Flower.
Passion flower is a great herb for those who suffer from sleep problems, anxiety and pain.
Passion flower does this by regulating the effect of the neurotransmitter GABA which
may be why it's so popular among people looking to relax or get some more shut eye.
It can be dried and made into tea as well as taken in supplement form - both are equally
helpful!
The next one is a personal favorite, Number 5 is Basil.
Basil, a must-have for every kitchen, is an ideal natural remedy to help relieve pain
and inflammation.
High in vitamin A as well as the antioxidant flavonoids that are essential for healthy
blood vessels that feed your nerves with nutrients and oxygen, basil is one of those herbs you
go back to again and again.
Basil packs both healing power via eugenol which inhibits enzymes responsible for inflammatory
reactions (much like aspirin or ibuprofen) but also contains potent antioxidants such
as beta carotene found in Vitamin A.
The next herb we need to mention is Number 4 - Valerian Root.
Valerian root helps calm the nervous system when it is overactive.
It does this by regulating the levels of neurotransmitters involved in rest and sleep, such as GABA which
has calming properties.
That's likely why people find valerian to be helpful for battling anxiety and restless
sleep by taking it as a tea or supplement.
Next up, we must not forget our Number 3 - Chinese Skullcap.
Skullcap is a popular herb used in Traditional Chinese Medicine.
It's a wonderful herb for reducing the pain associated with inflammation, a root cause
of nerve pain for many.
It can also reduce anxiety and calm the nervous system by increasing blood flow to the brain.
You can take skullcap in a herbal tea or as a tincture.
Next up, you do not want to miss our Number 2 - California Poppy.
If you're looking for a natural way to relieve stress, the California poppy can help with
that.
This state flower of California contains many alkaloids, which are known to help with anxiety,
restlessness and insomnia.
This herb also acts on GABA receptors in the brain to prevent pain sensors from activating
and alleviate chronic inflammation.
You can take California poppy as a tea or in capsule form to promote sleep, rest, and
balance your mood!
And finally our Number 1 herb - Ashwagandha.
You're stressed and need a break.
Ashwagandha is the perfect herb for you!
This Ayurvedic herb is an adaptogen that helps your body respond to stress, and it also has
anti-inflammatory properties.
This makes it great for protecting against dementia and Alzheimer’s disease, as well
as boosting memory and cognitive function.
And if you want to feel calm or reduce anxiety, an ashwagandha supplement can help with that
too!
