It’s hard to find a
natural solution to today’s overstressed world. The
encouraging news is that lemon balm (Melissa officinalis),
a plant native to the Mediterranean region, has been
clinically proven to reduce anxiety by 49% and sleeplessness
by up to 39% in as little as 15 days.4
What’s more, lemon balm produces these calming effects while
also enhancing memory and attention!
Cyracos® lemon balm extract is prepared from special lemon
balm chosen for its high concentrations of hydroxycinnamic and
rosmarinic acids. These active lemon balm constituents appear
to enhance mood and cognitive performance by exhibiting
central nervous system acetylcholine receptor activity,
including nicotinic and muscarinic binding properties in the
cerebral cortex of the human brain.
Aside from relieving
everyday stress and sleep problems, the anxiety-relieving
properties of this plant extract may also offer smokers relief
from the mental stress of quitting, aid in leveling mood
swings, support female balance, and promote a feeling of
satiety.
Relaxation-promoting effects of theanine
The Japanese have long known that
theanine, an amino
acid derived from green tea, is a natural relaxant that
diminishes stress—without drowsiness, impaired thought, or
other side effects.
Theanine produces
tranquilizing effects in the brain in ways that have been
compared to meditation, massage, and aromatherapy.
Theanine induces
relaxation without causing drowsiness. In fact, studies show
that theanine enhances the brain’s ability to concentrate,
learn, and remember. Theanine also increases levels of serotonin and
dopamine, critical brain chemicals that are depleted by
various stress factors.
A host
of health-enhancing benefits
Research shows that theanine has numerous health-enhancing
effects, including protecting cognitive function.* In studies
of neurons in cell culture, theanine significantly reversed
glutamate-induced toxicity, a major cause of degenerative
brain decline.
Based on published data
showing the multiple beneficial effects of lemon balm extract
and theanine, Life Extension has combined these potent but
safe nutrients into a formula called Natural Stress Relief.
The theanine used in
Natural Stress Relief is Suntheanine®, the only pure form of
L-theanine available worldwide and the only form protected by
40 internationally recognized patents and scientifically
proven in clinical studies to be safe and efficacious.
Independent laboratory analysis has verified that certain
other products on the market claiming to contain “L-theanine”
are only half L-theanine, the other half being a different
form of theanine known as “D-theanine” which has not been
scientifically evaluated in published studies.
