Product description:
Weight gain may be associated with emotional over-eating for people with stressful lifestyles. Women are especially vulnerable to stress related over-eating. Phellolia, from Olympian Labs is a combination of two plant extracts called Phellodendron Amurense and Magnolia Officinalis. These extracts may help to relieve stress and minimize stress-induced eating. Preliminary research suggests that these two plant extracts may help regulate cortisol levels; levels that are associated with stress related weight gain. FIRST: REDUCE THE STRESS
Phellolia is a natural, non-sedating, anti-anxiety and stress-relieving product. The plant extracts found in Phellolia are currently being used to control stress related over eating/drinking. In fact, the bark of Magnolia Officinalis has been used in traditional Chinese Herbalism for centuries for stress reduction and relaxing muscle tension. Stress plays a significant role in a wide variety of adverse health conditions including immune system dysfunction and cardiovascular disease. When we experience high levels of sustained stress, our bodies produce a hormone called cortisol. Cortisol, in small levels, is necessary for normal body function. However, high levels can be highly detrimental to over all health.
Low DHEA levels are known to be the leading cause of depression, mood swings and chronic fatigue problems. In the central nervous system, the plant extracts in Phellolia bind to several receptors associated with anxiety. Because Phellolia doesn’t bind to the receptors that cause sedation, like those in prescriptive anti-anxiety drugs, Phellolia provides relaxing qualities without unwanted sedative effects. Phellolia can help normalize the cortisol and DHEA levels in the body that can restore you to better mental, and thereby physical, condition. An astoundingly high number of people who used Phellolia-like products reported a decrease in irritability, emotional ups and downs, restlessness, tense muscles, poor sleep, fatigue and concentration difficulties.
SECOND: REMOVE CRAVINGS
Stress has also shown to be a contributing factor in certain obesity conditions. Many of these conditions are linked to stress related hormone imbalances; particularly elevated cortisol levels paired with depressed DHEA levels. The link between stress and obesity has been difficult to document until recently. Anew study suggests that individuals who have high reactions to cortisol consume more calories and more sweet foods when they are under stress. These stress-induced hormonal imbalances cause intense cravings for high-fat, high carbohydrate foods.
THIRD: FEEL AND LOOK BETTER!
By lowering cortisol levels, reducing stress and controlling anxiety levels, Phellolia from Olympian Labs may help reduce the sweet cravings that go along with stress and help you lose weight. Doesn’t that make you feel good?
