Herbal Extreme

 Herbal Extreme contains extracts of guarana, Kola, Schisandra, Yerba Mate, Rou Gul, water and less than 3% alcohol.

To use Herbal Extreme, simply add 3-5 ml to your drink. I add it in my coffee, but it's great in tea as well. Some drink it in hot water, but hot drinks upset my stomach so I didn't try it that way.

Schisandra is used for respiratory problems, GI therapy, mental illnesses such as depression, to increase reflex response, improve mental clarity/alertness and more. In Chinese medicince, Schisandra is used as a sedative.

Kola is used for increasing energy and promotes digestion. Kola is a nervine and heart tonic and is used as a "general tonic" as well.

Herbal Extreme definitely has relaxing effects and like the Bliss Tea and many other products from Happy High Herbs, it helps with sleep and is amazing for stress. 

If I've had a cup of coffee or mix Herbal Extreme with my coffee, it does increase energy levels, but not so much that I'm bouncing off the walls. 

Herbal Extreme is a great alternative to most energy drinks since it doesn't cause shakyness or upset stomach. Also, with the healthy ingredients, using Herbal Extreme will have more benefits than just calming, energy and stress relief.

 A lot like the Bliss Tea I previously wrote about, Herbal Extreme has almost identical effects on me and my partner. It seems the relaxing and calming effects of Herbal Extreme are a bit more intense than Bliss Tea though. Still, both Bliss Tea and Herbal Extreme have calming, stress relieving effects. I like them all, but I think I prefer Bliss Extra since it contains Acai Berry. 

Herbal Extreme will increase energy for some, but it does have the calm, stress relieving effects for most. 

Adding a few drops to a glass of tea or coffee throughout your day is a really great way to keep you calm and de-stressed and enhance your mood. I also felt like Herbal Extreme killed my headache! That's just awesome because I get some nasty migraines and anytime I can relieve that pain, it's worth it. I had the beginnings of a bad headache when I drank some of the Herbal Extreme and it seemed to be a huge help. My head completely quit hurting. The migraine never came! 

Herbal Extreme has a bitter taste and has a bit of a burn going down. I drank a few drops of it straight and it wasn't horrible, but I prefer it mixed in a drink.
