History & Additional Info - We can all use a little Zen in our hectic lifestyles. If we could calm our anxiety and nerves, and maintain our energy when faced with stressors, we would be more productive and not so exhausted. Zen is an adaptogenic tonic designed to help handle the mental and physical effects of stress to become more efficient. This formula works quickly, but also includes herbs that assist in developing the adaptogenic ability of the body over time.

It contains an isolated amino acid derived from green tea called L-theanine, which has been studied extensively and found to promote relaxation without causing drowsiness. L-theanine creates alpha brain waves in the mind. Those are the waves associated when one is in a state of tranquility and concentration allowing more productivity. The formula is also a terrific sleep aid. It doesn't knock you out like a sleeping pill, but quiets an over thinking mind to aid in a sound sleep. L-theanine is extremely safe and commonly used in Asia. It is found in ice cream, candy bars, and gum for example. You would have to drink 15 cups of green tea to take the effective dose of L-theanine found in just one capsule of Zen.

The additional herbs in the formula support healthy nerves, energy, and heightened mental acuity. Another key component is polygala, which was known by the Taoists to strengthen one's will power. It was given to the monks to keep them on their path towards enlightenment when they were feeling weak and unsure of themselves. Polygala is a key component in the Zen formula keeping the will and motivation strong. This is a powerful anti-stress formula.
