Will Relora® help me lose weight?
Relora® is for stress and stress-related eating. It should be used as an adjunct
to an exercise and diet program. Relora® may help a person lose weight if he or
she has excessive weight due to excessive stress. Excessive stress can lead to
food cravings and increased fat, particularly in the belly. Relora® appears to
help cut carbohydrate cravings when they are due to stress by normalizing
hormone levels and producing a less stressed state.
Are there any side effects of Relora®?
Relora® is generally well tolerated. Some individuals experience mild drowsiness
with Relora®. This drowsiness usually dissipates within the first couple of
days. Like any plant, there is always the possibility of an allergic reaction.
If you are allergic to either magnolia or phellodendron plants then there is the
possibility that you will have a reaction.
How does Relora® interact with caffeine such
as in coffee and soda?
Relora® should not be taken with stimulants such as caffeine. Their
pharmacological actions are opposing.
When exactly should I take Relora® for the
best results?
600 mg of Relora® should be taken daily in divided doses, twice a day, morning
and evening. Relora® should be taken with food. Although most people do not have
a problem taking Relora® on an empty stomach, there is a small percentage of the
population that might experience some stomach upset when taken on an empty
stomach.
How long before you notice the effects from
taking Relora®?
Relora®'s stress reduction benefits start working within a few hours. But some
people don't feel the effects for a few days.
Are there carbohydrates in Relora®?
Each 300mg capsule of Relora® contains approximately 0.2 grams of carbohydrate.
What are the Ingredients?
Relora® is a propriety blend of a patented plant extract from the Magnolia
officinalis tree and a patent-pending plant extract from the Phellodendron
amurense tree.
Can I take Relora® with my prescription
medication?
All of our studies demonstrate that Relora® is very safe. But, we cannot
recommend the use of Relora® if you are currently being treated for a medical
condition. The decision to take Relora® in this case is up to your physician.
Relora® should not be used by women trying to get pregnant, or during pregnancy.
We cannot recommend the use of Relora® while breastfeeding simply because we do
not know if any of the metabolites from Relora® might cross over into the milk.
Can I use Relora® with other supplements?
Relora® can be taken safely with vitamins and minerals. But it is difficult to
ascertain all of the potential interactions with other herbal/botanical
supplements. We suggest you not take Relora® in combination with other
herb/botanical supplements unless recommended by a health professional.
Can you drink alcohol with Relora®?
Relora® may cause drowsiness and alcohol may intensify this effect. Use caution
in operating automobiles and heavy machinery.
How long can I take Relora®?
You should continue for a least a month. If after a few months you would like to
see how you are doing without Relora®, feel free to take a couple weeks off and
see how you do. Otherwise, you can take Relora® for an indefinite period of
time.
Is Relora® FDA Approved?
Relora®, like all dietary supplements, is regulated by the FDA under the Dietary
Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994.
