Flower Power to the Rescue of Anxiety Sufferers

Can flowers help you relax? You bet.

According to a recent University of Miami School of Nursing scientific study concluded late June, all-natural Rescue Remedy® is as effective in reducing stress and restoring emotional balance.

This study, the first-ever on this popular alternative to drugs like Paxil, was held in conjunction with The Sirkin Creative Living Center. It specifically examined the effects of this over-the-counter's drug's effectiveness to reduce "acute situational stress."

Rescue Remedy® contains a combination of the essences of five flowers known since the early 1900s to relieve, among other things, irrational thoughts and panic. More than 100 individuals aged 18 to 50 were given a standard scientific stress test, with results measured, and then given a standard dose of Rescue Remedy®. The stress test was administered a second time with results showing it eliminated stress without becoming addictive.

According to the article stress can make the body weak, unable to fight off disease and infection, and even unable to cope with the smallest, everyday pressures.
Walgreen’s, GNC, Whole Foods, Wild Oats and other naturopathic health stores all carry Rescue Remedy®.
