Default Magnolia Rhodiola and L-Theanine

Magnolia Rhodiola and L-Theanine

I've heard conflicting reports on the effectiveness of these herbs in calming anxiety, I am trying them out myself, I will report back to this thread in two weeks with my findings.

Ensure you use a quality Rhodiola brand. There are a hundred brands, but my friends and I have discovered only a couple of brands are truly therapeutic. Verde Botanica, Mind Body & Spirit, Energy Reserves, etc.

Sometimes I combine 500 mg Rhodiola with 200-400 mg theanine for a nice calming effect that lasts all day.
I'll try that right now.

Nor for me unfortunately. I think perhaps they have had a tiny effect on my anxiety but this could easily be the placebo effect. My conclusion after two weeks of use is that they did not have any tangible effect on me.
