Product Description

WHAT IS CORTISOL CONTROL ?

Some days your body is tired. But your mind isn't. When long days, constant stimulation, and shifting hormones keep your system switched on, unwinding doesn't happen automatically. Cortisol Control is formulated to support a balanced stress response and help your nervous system ease out of alert mode. It supports the pathways involved in relaxation, so evenings feel calmer, sleep feels closer, and you feel more like yourself again.

Benefits

Shift Out of Alert Mode.
When stress lingers longer than it should, your system stays on standby. CORTISOL CONTROL supports a balanced stress response and nervous-system steadiness, helping your body ease out of prolonged alert signalling. Because survival mode isn’t meant to be permanent.

Calm the Edge.
When pressure turns into irritability or low-level anxiety, you don’t need to feel dulled, you need control. CORTISOL CONTROL supports relaxed focus and emotional balance, helping you respond deliberately instead of reacting automatically.

Unwind. Without Sedation.
Evening calm shouldn’t mean knocking yourself out. CORTISOL CONTROL supports your natural relaxation pathways, helping your system shift from stimulation to steadiness. Wind down naturally. This is functional calm, not forced sleep.

Stay Sharp. Stay Steady.
Stress can cloud your thinking before you even notice. CORTISOL CONTROL supports cognitive performance and resilience under pressure, promoting a focused calm. Because clarity should hold up, even when your day doesn’t.

Wake Up Like You Actually Slept.
When your system never fully powers down, sleep stays shallow and mornings feel heavy. CORTISOL CONTROL supports deeper, more restorative rest, so you wake up feeling like the night actually did its job.

Our Standards

We build formulas with intention, data, and zero tolerance for BS. Here is how we ensure every VIVANA product works with your physiology.

CLINICAL DOSING & FORMULATIONS


  • Doses That Actually Do Something: We select ingredients based on clinical evidence and physiological logic. We use full, clinical precursor loads; no micro-doses or “fairy dust”.
  • High Bioavailability: We only use forms of nutrients that your body can easily absorb and utilize. For example, our Magnesium Pro features a 5-form complex (including MagTein®) for maximum absorption, and our Collagen Pro uses bioavailable amino acids and co-factors rather than generic, underdosed blends.

PRODUCTION & TECH

  • Smart Delivery Systems: We use advanced delivery technology where it matters most, such as the delayed-release mechanism in our Gut Harmony probiotics, ensuring live strains (like LGG and S. boulardii) reach your gut intact.
  • Clean & Premium Ingredients: Our products are crafted with premium grade ingredients and are certified Non-GMO and Gluten-Free. Many of our formulas are also Vegan.
  • No Fillers or Window Dressing: You will never find filler ingredients or trendy but ineffective additives in our solutions.

SUSTAINABILITY & SOURCING

  • Responsible Sourcing: We prioritize clean, sustainable sourcing to protect both your body and the environment. For example, our Omega-3 is sourced exclusively from small, sustainable fish. This provides a clean, highly purified extract with quantified EPA and DHA while avoiding the heavy-metal worries often associated with generic fish oils.

QUALIFICATIONS & EXPERTISE

  • Pharmacist-Founded: VIVANA was created by Anne-Gaëlle, a pharmacist with over 20 years of clinical experience at the intersection of science, aesthetics, and functional wellness.
  • Evidence-Based Systems: Our standard is rooted in rigorous, evidence-based medicine and systemic physiological support. We don't chase trends; we build functional systems designed to support your body's resilience, clarity, and vitality.
90-day Satisfaction Promise

Give it a fair trial.

Our formulas need consistent use to show results.

So if you've genuinely given a 3-month supply 90 days and it hasn't worked for you, we'll refund it.

What Customers Say

"By 9pm my body was done. My brain was throwing a TED talk. Cortisol Control hasn't switched my brain off, because nothing does. It just feels quieter in there. I read books in the evening again. I'd forgotten that was a thing."

Emma, 45 - Cardiff

"I needed evening calm without feeling drugged. This is the first thing I've tried that sits between herbal-tea-and-vibes and 'go see your GP'. Properly thought-through ingredients. That's the bit I trust."

Hannah, 50 - Leeds

"Perimenopause turned my evenings into chaos. Hot. Wired. Running through tomorrow's to-do list while sat on the sofa. Cortisol Control feels like my evenings belong to me again. Not every night. But more often than they did."

Priya, 47, London

"I was sceptical. I'd written off the whole adaptogen thing as Instagram nonsense. Then I read the formulation. Then I read who made it. I'm now the person recommending it at a dinner party, which is a sentence I never expected to type."

Sarah, 49 Manchester

"I'm not the wind-down type. I work, then I work in my head, then I lie there annoyed at myself for working in my head. Cortisol Control is the first thing that's helped me close the loop. Doesn't knock you out. Just helps you actually stop."

Dan, 51, Birmingham

Anne-Gaelle founder of Vivana, Pharmacist with 25+ years experience

"I didn't create Vivana to be perfect. I created it because I wanted to live better. Not later, not when things calm down, but now."

Rooted in evidence-based physiology and shaped by lived experience, Vivana is a systems-based approach to resilience, clarity and vitality. Not about chasing youth. About supporting your body so you can stay fully engaged in what matters.

RESULTS BACKED BY SCIENCE

Less Crisis. More Chemistry.

We don’t borrow the language of wellness. We build from physiology. You won’t find any mystical “fountain of youth” promises here. Your body is not failing. It’s recalibrating. And it needs precision tools to match its new operating system.

Clinical Dosing

No micro-doses or trendy “detox miracles.” We engineer every formula with full, clinically studied precursor loads, delivering the exact biochemical building blocks your cells need to repair and thrive on their own.

Systemic Upgrade, Not Symptom Chasing

Midlife shifts are a network effect, not random chaos. Instead of throwing isolated vitamins at a mood swing, our formulas target the root physiological architecture, including your gut-brain axis, cortisol rhythms, and hormonal shifts.

Uncompromised Bioavailability

Ingredients only work if your body can actually read them. We use highly bioavailable forms and advanced delivery systems to ensure nutrients survive digestion and arrive intact where your body actually needs them.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know, answered simply.

What does Cortisol Control help with, specifically in the evening?

CORTISOL CONTROL is designed for the “tired but wired” evening state.
It supports a smoother transition from high-alert daytime mode into night-time wind-down. When your body feels physically exhausted but your mind refuses to power down, this formula supports a more natural descent into rest.
It’s not about forcing sleep. It’s about helping your system shift gears.

Who is Cortisol Control best for?

CORTISOL CONTROL is for people who:

  • Feel alert late at night despite being tired
  • Experience racing thoughts at bedtime
  • Notice stress lingering into the evening
  • Wake up feeling like their nervous system never fully settled

If your evenings feel overstimulated rather than calm, this is your formula.

How do I take it?

Take the recommended dose in the evening, approximately 30–60 minutes before bed, with water.
Consistency supports pattern change. Your body responds best when rhythm is predictable.

Can I take it every night, or only on stressful days?

You can take it nightly.
CORTISOL CONTROL works best as part of a consistent evening rhythm, especially if your system tends to stay “on” by default. Some people use it daily; others use it during higher-stress periods.
Listen to your pattern. Then stay consistent.

Will it make me groggy the next morning?

CORTISOL CONTROL is designed to support relaxation, not sedation.
It does not aim to “knock you out.” Most people do not report morning grogginess when taken as directed. The goal is a calmer descent into sleep, not forced unconsciousness.
If you feel unusually heavy the next morning, review your timing and dose, and consider taking it slightly earlier in the evening.

Can I take it with Magnesium Pro?

Yes, and many people do.
Magnesium supports normal nervous system function and psychological balance. Taken together in the evening, they can complement each other:

  • Magnesium supports foundational calm
  • CORTISOL CONTROL supports the stress-to-rest transition

Same direction. Different mechanisms.

Can I take it with Balance+?

Yes.
A common Vivana rhythm looks like this:

  • BALANCE+ in the morning → daytime emotional steadiness
  • CORTISOL CONTROL in the evening → night-time wind-down

One supports your day. The other supports your descent into rest.
System logic. Not random stacking.

Can I take it if I’m on HRT?

Yes.
CORTISOL CONTROL is nutritional support. HRT is medical therapy. They serve different roles.
Many people use CORTISOL CONTROL alongside HRT to support evening calm. If you’re under medical supervision, simply inform your clinician about any supplements you’re taking.

Can I take it if I’m already using sleep aids or calming supplements?

If you are already using prescription sleep medication or multiple calming supplements, consult your healthcare provider before combining them.
Layering too many “calm” products isn’t always better. Intelligent pairing is.

Are there medications I should be cautious about combining with Cortisol Control?

If you are taking:

  • Prescription sleep medications
  • Anti-anxiety medication
  • Antidepressants
  • Hormone therapy
  • Any medication affecting the nervous system

Consult your healthcare professional before adding this supplement.
Responsible supplementation means informed decisions.

Does Cortisol Control contain allergens?

CORTISOL CONTROL lists soya as an allergen.
If you have a soy allergy or sensitivity, this product is not suitable for you.
If you are unsure about your sensitivity level, consult your healthcare provider before use.

What’s the difference between relaxation and sedation here?

Relaxation means your nervous system shifts toward calm.
Sedation means you are chemically suppressed.
CORTISOL CONTROL is formulated to support relaxation: helping the body move out of high-alert mode, without forcing unconsciousness.
You should still feel like you. Just less wired.

How long should I give it before judging results?

Some people notice a shift within the first week. For others, the effect becomes clearer after 2–4 weeks of consistent evening use.
The goal is pattern change, not a dramatic one-night difference.
Evaluate after a few weeks, not one evening.

Can I take it earlier in the day if my stress peaks in the afternoon?

CORTISOL CONTROL is formulated primarily for evening use. It is not an emergency solution. It’s here to build resilience, throughout the day, especially when combined with Balance+. 
So whatever is happening during the day, your body becomes more prepared to cope with it.
If your stress peaks mid-afternoon, focus first on daytime foundations like:

  • Morning Balance+
  • Adequate magnesium
  • Nutritional stability

If you’re unsure about timing adjustments, consult your healthcare provider before moving it earlier in the day.

What if I wake up during the night? Should I adjust timing?

Waking up at night is often a dysregulation of cortisol. No need to change the time of taking it necessarily, consistence (sleep routine, taking your supplement) and a bit of time will build resilience.
If you consistently wake at night:

  • Try taking CORTISOL CONTROL slightly earlier (e.g., 60 minutes before bed).
  • Maintain a consistent sleep schedule.
  • Pair it with evening magnesium if appropriate.

If night-time waking persists, it may not be solely cortisol-related. In that case, consider exploring broader lifestyle and medical factors with your healthcare professional.

LE B.S.

En préménopause, j'ai eu l'occasion de tester différents compléments alimentaires.
Mais la belle découverte associé au magnésium c'est le Cortisol Control. Après plus de 2 mois d'utilisation régulière, j'ai constaté deux bénéfices concrets : le stress et ça aide le métabolisme.
Je le recommande sans hésiter à toutes les femmes traversant cette période.

Bonjour Sophie, merci beaucoup pour votre superbe retour ! Nous sommes ravis d'apprendre que le Cortisol Control vous accompagne bien durant cette période. Votre recommandation signifie beaucoup pour nous. Prenez soin de vous !

I was waking up stressed before I even got out of bed. That pattern has broken. I can't overstate how much that changes the whole day. I sleep like a baby. Thanks Anne-Gaelle

Sceptical after failing with other stress supplements. But I sleep like a baby now, and feel more relaxed.

Hi Concha! We're so glad to hear that Cortisol Control has made a positive difference for you. Thanks for sharing your experience with us!
