It is loved by many due there being no side effects! Dr. Oz has been helping the health industry by creating awareness around safe natural alternatives. This is what he has to say:
“If you feel like your belly is bringing you down, don’t just stand idly by and watch it grow. There are plenty of effective and affordable supplements and foods you can try to help you lose that extra bulge.
Supplement to Reduce Stress: Relora
When you’re under stress, your body releases the hormone cortisol, which makes your body store fat around your midsection. If you tend to gain weight when you’re stressed out, this supplement can help you tackle stubborn belly fat. Relora is supplement made from the extracts of two plants used for thousands of years by Chinese herbalists to promote relaxation. Clinical studies have shown that Relora can help mitigate feelings of anxiety. Decreased levels of cortisol can lead to the prevention of weight gain, the loss of excess weight, and the reduction of stress eating.
Dose: Take 250mg of Relora three times a day – or one dose with every meal. Studies have demonstrated this to be the most effective use of this supplement so you receive the maximum benefit.”
How does Relora work?
Belly fat is a protection mechanism. When we are in danger or stressed, the hormone cortisol increases and when there is an abundance of 
cortisol due to too much stress, belly fat deposits itself around the mid-section. Normal amounts of cortisol are a good thing. All hormones play a role and cortisol is there to decrease inflammation in the body and help protect the immune system. The problem lies when we are over worked and over stressed. Too much stress causes a large increase in cortisol and also will decrease the hormone DHEA. This hormone, when severely lowered can lead to the depression of the immune system, an increase in insulin levels, bone loss, and depression. Relora naturally brings the body back into balance using two ingredients used in traditional Chinese medicine: Phellodendron Amurense and Magnolia Officinalus.
Ultimately Relora helps you with stress related eating a drinking. Often times when we are stressed we eat more comfort foods that are high in calories as well as fat and sugar! We know it is bad, but it seems to help at the time. Chronic stress can cause sugar cravings, which leads to insulin problems and then possibly diabetes. It is important to take hold of the situation before it gets out of hand. If you put your mind to it, get the support you need, have a healthy diet, do regular exercise and deal with your stress with the help of Relora weight loss is attainable. Results vary, but when you are doing all the right things, on average people see results in four weeks. The key is to not give up, if you make a mistake keep on going. Do not loose site of your goal.
