(Patent number US 6,582,735, relates to the use of Relora™ for weight loss associated with stress and a stress-related condition known as "metabolic syndrome" and was granted in September 2004. The importance of receiving a patent cannot be overstated, it allows us to make specific claims regarding weight loss. We are not aware of ANY other product that has such a patent and therefore any claims made by other weight loss products should be treated with sceptism.)

Relora™ has quickly become the U.K's No 1, non prescription supplement to help fight the problems associated with stress and anxiety and has been featured in numerous newspapers and magazines, including reviews in the Sunday Times Sunday Times (Magazine) and Marie Claire all of which are unaminous in their support for Relora.

In fact Relora was described by the respected Sunday Times Health journalist Susan Clarke (Sunday Times 11th April 2004)s

'To my mind Relora is one of the all-time best supplements.'

Weight gain and stress.

One of the main ways stress contributes to weight gain is by increasing your appetite. In particular it produces cravings for high-fat and high-carbohydrate foods, which provide your body with an instant energy boost. The hormone Cortisol which is released when we're stressed stimulates the appetite and promotes fat/carbohydrate conversion into glucose - the aim being to boost your energy reserves for the 'fight or flight' response.

This fight or flight response was appropriate for our ancestors who when faced by dinosaurs or sabre toothed tigers had a simple decision to make either run of fight. However, the stress we typically experience in modern life - sitting in a traffic jam or problems at work - does not require this extra energy. Our lifestyles are predominantly sedentary. We consume extra calories because our bodies think we need them but they are not actually being used. The result - weight gain.

All forms of stress produce the same physiological consequences. This includes environmental stress (heat, cold and noise, etc.), chemical stress (pollution, drugs, etc.), physical stress (illness, trauma, infection, etc.), psychological stress (worry, fear, etc.), and biochemical stress (nutritional deficiencies, refined sugar consumption, etc.).

In fact, stress has reach almost epidemic propertions and it's no co-incidence that the reported increase in stress we all face has been mirrored by the increase in the number of people who are overweight. It's estimated that nearly half the U.K. population is either overweight or obese. As well as being unsightly being overweight directly increases the risk of cancer according to a recently published report ( October 2007) by the World Cancer Research Fund.

The effects of Cortisol.

Cortisol encourages fat deposits to accumulate particularly in your stomach area. It is now accepted by doctors that those who store excess fat in this area - the so-called apple shape - are more vulnerable to heart disease. This risk is made worse by the fact that cortisol also increases cholesterol and triglyceride (blood fat) levels.

Excess Cortisol also depletes serotonin levels which are known to cause depression and emotional up and downs, which in turn often exacerbates the desire for ' comfort foods '.

Sustained levels of stress hormones can also lower thyroid function and that means that your metabolism gets turned down. All of these effects can combine to cause our bodies to take in more calories and burn off fewer calories — so we gain weight — specifically around our stomach (which increases our risk for hypertension, diabetes and heart disease).

Relora promotes weight loss through its demonstrable reduction in Cortisol levels

A two-week regime of Relora caused a significant (P = 0.01) decrease in morning salivary cortisol levels (37%).

It’s not just the amount of food we eat that can be altered by stress and anxiety. The types of foods we choose is also affected.

In a study by Dr. Elissa Epel and colleagues at University of California, San Francisco, women who had the strongest reactions to cortisol chose more sweet foods during times of stress. Researchers believe women tend to seek out sugary foods or those high in carbohydrates because carbohydrates boost levels of a brain chemical that provides a calming effect.

Another study conducted in Finland ( 2006) found that women under stress often eat fatty foods, including sausages, hamburgers, pizza and chocolate more often than eaters who were unaffected by stress. Those women who were identified as stress-driven eaters had higher body mass indices (a measure that combines your weight and height) than those who were not.

Relora reduces DHEA

Relora also exerts a beneficial action on another vital metabolic hormone, Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). It has been found to boost levels of DHEA, which is produced in the adrenal gland and is found in high amounts in brain tissue. DHEA levels fall precipitously with age - by as much as 90 per cent between the ages of 20 and 90 - and this is thought to be a factor in contributing to middle-aged 'spread'.

In a study conducted to determine the effect of DHEA on genetically obese mice, it was found that although the DHEA-treated mice ate normally, they remained thin and lived longer than control mice who were not given DHEA.2 In another trial it was found that even middle-aged obese rats lost weight when fed DHEA-supplemented food. The incidence of diabetes, a typical complication of obesity, was also dramatically lowered.3, 4 DHEA exerts this 'slimming' effect by its inhibitory action on a key hormone called glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH), which left unchecked breaks down glucose and turns it to fat for storage

A two-week regime of Relora caused a significant (P = 0.003) increase in salivary DHEA (227%)

Walter G. Chambliss, Professor of Pharmaceutics and Associate Director in the National Center for Natural Products Research, School of Pharmacy, University of Mississippi, says: "Not only is Relora an excellent way to alleviate stress, and the health risks associated with stress, but it also appears to modulate the hormones that lead to stress-induced eating and subsequent weight gain."
