Stress management is a key influencing factor for gut health. Silver Fern™ Brand’s Quiet Serenity is part of our continued effort to provide you with effective and proven ways to improve your gut health.*
Gut-Brain Axis
Have you ever had a “gut-feeling” or felt sick to your stomach when you were stressed? How about “butterflies in your stomach” when you are nervous or anxious? These gut and brain connections are called the gut-brain axis. The link between the gut and brain is through the vagus nerve. The gut definitely affects how you feel:
- Bacteria in the gut can act on this communication link to influence gut-brain communications.
- The gut produces more than 90% of the serotonin found in the body.
- Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that affects your mood and feelings (happiness and pleasure).
- Gut bacteria impact the production of serotonin.
- A healthy gut is a strong predictor of a person’s wellbeing.
Quiet Serenity contains ingredients to help improve your ability to handle stress and decrease overall everyday anxiety.* Quiet Serenity contains Bifidobacterium longum 1714®, which helps increase activity in the areas of the brain that are associated with emotions, learning, memory, and improved coping while under stress.*
Stress
We all hate stress, but it is a reality of life. Stress can be the companion to work, relationships, and many other factors in our lives. The bottom line is that it can be miserable and most of us wish for much less of it.
For many people, stress is a feeling of being run-down or overwhelmed. People with high-stress levels feel overloaded and struggle to cope with the demands placed on them. Stress affects all people of all genders, ages, and situations.
Here are the common signs of stress:
- Loss of sleep
- Low energy
- Worry and anxiety
- Tiredness
- Tension headaches
- Weakened immune system
When stress is left unchecked it can contribute to many health problems including high blood pressure, heart disease, obesity, and diabetes!
Cortisol
Cortisol isn’t a bad thing. Cortisol gets us up and going for the day and when it drops at night it helps us sleep. However, elevated cortisol levels for an extended period of time can cause problems. These potential problems include increased inflammation, hormonal issues, as well as mental and physical health problems.
Acute and chronic stress can cause a surge in cortisol levels. Here are the signs and symptoms of too much cortisol:
- Weight gain (depositing of fat)
- Acne
- Easy bruising
- Severe fatigue
- Irritability and anxiety
- Difficulty concentrating
- High blood pressure
- Headaches
Sleep and stress are closely connected. Alterations to the sleep cycle can have a negative impact on health and well-being. A lot of stress can cause poor sleep while poor sleep causes health problems which in turn can cause more stress.
Quiet Serenity is a real sleep support solution. It will help support your mental performance, combat fatigue, and reduce everyday stress. Quiet Serenity will also improve sleep by helping reduce cortisol.*
Concentration
Wouldn’t you love to improve your memory and increase your ability to concentrate? Better concentration and better memory produce better outcomes, greater productivity, and faster performance. Better concentration for longer periods of time results in better performance than those that can’t concentrate. Quiet Serenity can help significantly improve both memory and concentration.*

It can naturally increase activity in the areas of the brain that are correlated with an improved ability to handle stress.*
B. longum 1714™ helps:
- Improve ability to manage everyday stress*
- Support activity in the areas of the brain that are associated with emotions, learning, and memory*
- Support a healthy mind*
- Reduce tiredness and fatigue*
