Ashwagandha has several adaptogenic effects, including modulation of GABA receptors, which is partly responsible for the significant reduction in anxiety and stress demonstrated in clinical trials. The KSM-66TM formulation of ashwagandha in particular has been shown to reduce serum cortisol levels by 27% and improve markers of depression, stress, and anxiety compared to a placebo. The combination of magnolia and phellodendron (Relora® blend) helps reduce stress and anxiety, and has been shown to reduce salivary cortisol levels and the perception of stress, improve other mood parameters, and prevent stress-related weight gain compared to placebo. Phosphatidylserine plays a critical role in neuronal cell structure and function and has been shown to dampen the stress response, improve mood, and normalize cortisol release.
