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. What’s
more, lemon balm produces these calming effects while also enhancing memory and
attention! Take one capsule once or twice daily (morning and
evening) with or without food, or as recommended by a healthcare practitioner. Serving Size 1 capsule
What is it?
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.
