Magnesium relaxes and relaxes
Spasms, palpitations, fatigue due to anxiety and bad sleep ? A magnesium cure relaxes muscles and improves nerve transmission.
Choose foods that are rich in it : cocoa, nuts, legumes, dark green leafy vegetables.
Or turn to a course of tablets. Magnesium is eliminated in 3 to 4 hours, so you should plan three times a day. Among the fifty specialties, the best absorbed by the body contain taurine (an amino acid) and vitamin B6 (D-Stress from Synergia, Magdyn from Bionutrics, UvimagB6 from Zambon).

Acupuncture relieves tension
In China, acupuncture is used in hospitals to treat hypertensive, the very stressed. “We sometimes do two sessions a day” underlines Dr Rafal. In France, we cannot envisage the same rhythm because this medicine is quite expensive (from 35 to 75 euros and sometimes more), except in dispensaries, in the hospital or in a contracted acupuncturist-doctor (information on acumedsyn.com).
Plan at least 10 sessions fairly close together, the time to get through the stressful period. Or regularly, once a month, to keep good gains.
