What is Relora?
Relora is a dietary supplement made from an extract from the plant compound called wan leaf that has been known for centuries in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Relora works by helping the body keep cortisol levels within the normal range. Suppose your body is naturally trying to release or move for this stress-related steroid hormone. In that case, Relora helps your body trick it into staying in the right place by quelling its effects and keeping cortisol at a level that is supposed to be "rest and relax."
Relora and Stress:
The term "stress" is sometimes used as a synonym for "cortisol," which can be released under stressful conditions. During stressful times, our bodies produce cortisol. It is a steroid hormone released from our adrenal gland, which is situated near the top of the kidneys. Cortisol is a corticosteroid hormone that helps us respond to stress. It does so by increasing blood pressure and releasing sugars from our liver into the bloodstream. These changes enable us to fight or flee from a stressful situation—or keep going in difficult conditions.
When we are under stress, our bodies release more of this hormone. Our adrenal glands secrete it into the blood for distribution to the rest of the body. Cortisol can have a positive or negative effect, depending on its level and duration. The higher and longer-lasting cortisol's effects are, the harder it is to recover from them, like any toxin in your system.
Relora helps the body keep cortisol levels within the normal range. This means that it helps maintain the normal cortisol balance at healthy levels needed for good health. It also retains the normal amount of cortisol released during stress, like exercise or sudden shock.

In addition to treating skin problems, it helps to decrease the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin tone. Magnolia Officinalis bark has no side effects.

Phellodendron amurense bark
Phellodendron amurense bark, colloquially known as Amur corkwood or Chinese corkwood, grows wild in forested regions in northeastern China and Korea. It is also found as an introduced species in the Appalachian Mountains and the Pacific Northwest region of North America.
Phellodendron amurense bark is a medium to large size tree that grows tall and wide. It has several branches and short, corky bark. The leaves are compound and can be as long as, are dark green on top and whitish-green on the underside. They have five to seven leaflets, and sometimes as many as nine or eleven (rarely), they end in an acute point. The flowers of this plant produce small fruits called drupes, which are red when they ripen in the fall; they contain one to three seeds.
Phellodendron amurense bark contains many tannins and other chemical compounds such as gallic acid, ferulic acid, and ellagic acid. The bark has also been used in medicine by Chinese traditional practitioners for various human ailments such as coughs and inflammations. Research has shown that this corkwood plant may have an antitumor effect on breast cancer cells.
