Planetary HerbalsSchisandra Adrenal Complex 710mg With Yam Rhizome, Poria Sclerotium & More - 120 Tablets

HelloI've been taking Schizandra long enough to give it a review. I have to say I'm very happy/satisfied with the results. I work in a very stressful environment. (Long story short version) & have been dealing with chronic recalcitrant depression for many years. This stuff has even normalized my bowl movements. It has brightened my mood & increased my overall energy level. It has been very effective in helping my body process & deal with stress. I have been taking it for a little over 90 days that's the amount of time I give any herb to test it's effectiveness. I'm sure I started feeling benefits before 90 days but didn't want to give it a review earlier. The recommended dose is 2 a day. I take one in the am & one in the pm. you can play around with the dosage, maybe I should/could increase it. Anyway I highly recommend it. Check it out. What have you got to loose, it pretty inexpensive as herbs go.ThanksNorm K

I have been using this specific product for just about a year, and it provides the following:- A lift to energy & mood- Sharpened focus- Gives you a sense of calm and being at easeIt is important to note, it requires no stimulants whatsoever and is effects the adrenal glands. Think of your fight or flight abilities, these are enhanced which allow you to cope better with things, ie stress, as it comes at you throughout the day.I personally take it first thin in the morning with 16 ounces of water and wait 30 minutes before eating, as it is only to be taken on an empty stomach or it will be ineffective. I have had no issues of upset stomach, nor has it ever made me nervous or jittery. It recommends taking two twice a day, I usually skip the evening dosage, but have occasionally taken that too and it does not keep me awake at night, for reference.

Great for mood improvement, though it upsets my stomach if I do not have a considerable amount of food in it.

This is a good, solid supplement for adrenal support and works well alone or in conjunction with a glandular formula. Adrenal fatigue is a very real problem in today's stressed out society. Unfortunately, western medicine has been slow to recognize that there are levels of dysfunction between normal, health adrenals and full adrenal failure (such as Addison's disease). There are several home tests that you can check, as well as certain symptoms you can observe that can point to under active or poor performing adrenal glands. You may notice nothing more than you are constantly exhausted and "running on fumes" all the time.This formula contains a collection of classic Chinese herbs that are used in Eastern medicine to support your adrenals. For me, they have been extremely helpful in helping to heal my adrenals over time. It's been about 2 years in the making for me, but I am in a much better place today on many levels. Like I said, especially in the early stages of healing your adrenals, glandular support maybe necessary as well.

When you're not feeling well - you'll try just about anything!!! I was looking at reviews for a different product (can't remember what that was), and a couple of reviews recommended this, which appeared may have been the magic potion for my ails! Alas, I felt no change at all - it didn't decrease any of the symptoms, as promised. I took for 30 days - and, again, didn't feel any different when I stopped either. Bummer for me!!!
