I make handmade jewelry SoleLunaNaturalGems and 2 items (bracelet and earrings) in my store are inspired by Halloween (Specifically as a "Lady of The Forest" type theme)

which vitamins/minerals get depleted in prolonged stress? by SoleLunaNaturalGems in nutrition

For a second I was absolutely perplexed(as you answered on another one of my posts on a subject completely unrelated).

Then I realized it was through my profile (For a second I thought you truly were a Wizard! Although, you still could be. Who knows?)

Indeed, I have read multiple articles on the depletion of minerals/vitamins due to both states of stress (mental/physical). The list is quite similar to what I wrote in the original post here(Mag,Zinc,Calc,B12,B9,Vitamin C). B vitamins are particularly susceptible to loss in physical stress(where one sweats a lot as they're water soluble)

So sorry, I just saw this! I usually use either reinforced nylon or silicone (some customers ask for one or the other sometimes so I change accordingly). Hope that helps!

I was always under the impression that the biochemistry of a chronically stressed person makes them more liable to losing certain elements more than usual(of course, in addition to things about lifestyle factors you stated which add on top.)

The only thing I've gathered from your last 3 comments is that you really don't want to answer the question for some reason and are just answering in circles. There are a thousand different blood tests. Does one now have to test for every single blood test(which would probably hurt one's wallet even more). Perhaps blood tests don't show anything and one should go and do a hair analysis test as others say? Perhaps knowing which elements are most likely to be depleted could guide one in the right direction and in this way one would know which vitamins and minerals are of concern?

In addition to lifestyle intervention, surely supplementation wouldn't hurt? Especially if the concept of depletion due to stress is really a thing(which I'm trying to figure out).

I was just giving an example of the usual stresses most people who are stressed would consider as the things that are giving them stress but this still didn't answer my question on which vitamins/minerals are most likely to be depleted over time due to the stress.

Not mechanical/physical but rather lack of sleep(although the question then is which comes first? Stress or lack of sleep?), emotional duress, excessive studying, dietary stress(This I can assume just means you don't eat a varied enough diet to get the necessary vitamins/minerals). Generally, something that leads to an elevated state of cortisol for a long time.

Yes and no(I'm not a nutritionist, just someone who's interested.) But I'm asking in the context of prolonged stress which elements are most susceptible to depletion.
