Relora is a relatively new herbal stress relief formula that is starting to make big waves in holistic medicine. It is a non-sedative that comes from the extracts of both magnolia and philodendron and is made specifically to support those with stress and irritability, food cravings, poor sleeping habits, and restlessness. It relaxes you and gives you a general sense of well being as well as a sense of stability. Made to be gentle on the stomach, it is showing excellent affects on people who deal with chronic stress. Since we know that chronic stress can cause cravings for sweets that are fattening for us such as candy, cookies, and chips, Relora has also shown promise in helping to control appetite cravings for these particular types of foods. It is because people with higher reactors to cortisol tend to consume more calories and sweet type foods. Relora helps to keep cortisol under control which means that it puts a stop to your bad eating and craving habits. Relora also works to support healthy management of stress related symptoms. This includes the irritability, mood swings, tense muscles and difficulty with concentration. It used an advanced combination of the extracts to support the normal levels of cortisol as well as the DHEA hormones in the body. It also works by binding the stress receptors in the nervous system which brings on relaxation and the feelings of wellbeing while ignoring the receptors associated with sleep. Basically it makes you feel better and calmer without putting you to sleep. This will allow you to skip the afternoon naps you may feel that you need now and allow you to sleep better at night. Although more studies are being done, Relora can do a lot for your everyday stress and when used as part of a healthy diet and exercise program can help you to shed those extra pounds brought on by emotional eating and stress.
