Lee Swanson Research Update
Relora® Deemed Effective for the Stress-weight Connection
February 2006
A new study published in Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine describes Relora as a safe and effective dietary supplement ingredient that can be used to help manage the connection between stress and weight gain. Relora, a dietary supplement, features a proprietary blend of phellodendron and magnolia extracts. Its mechanism of action is through reduction of tension and anxiety with subsequent reduction in stress hormones that contribute to overeating, weight gain and body fat.
The randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial was conducted to determine the efficacy of Relora in helping overweight, otherwise healthy, premenopausal female adults, who typically eat more in stressful situations manage their body weight.
The study involved 40 healthy, overweight, physically active, 20-50-year-old women. Subjects received either a placebo or 750 mg of Relora for six weeks. An analysis indicated that Spielberger Trait Total and Anxiety Index scores improved significantly, and by twice as much with Relora as with placebo. The Relora group also had twice as much average reduction in sleep latency as the placebo group. The formulation was found to significantly reduce anxiety and stress.
