Optimood is a dietary supplement designed to combat psychophysical stress associated with mood disorders and decreased motivation.
It is based on ingredients obtained from high-quality medicinal plants, whose effectiveness has been proven by clinical studies and whose functional synergy is supported by the different mechanisms of action of the individual ingredients.
According to epidemiological studies, an estimated 10 to 20% of the population suffers from depression.
The reason for this is a functional deficiency of some neurotransmitters, such as serotonin, noradrenaline and dopamine, in some parts of the brain.
Hypericum extract contains several active ingredients that are able to increase the activity of these neurotransmitters of the nervous system. The use of Hypericum can cause inconsistencies when taken simultaneously with benzodiazepines, some oral contraceptives, simvastatin and some antidepressants.
Scutellaria extract has a neurotrophic effect by increasing the activity of NGF (nerve growth factor) and BDNF (brain derived neurotrophic factor). These factors contribute to the proliferation of nerve cells by practically normalizing the GABAergic system and the HPA axis, the production of cortisol and inflammatory factors such as NFKB and IL6.
Lemon balm extract helps improve sleep quality and concentration and lower cortisol levels. It works through the mechanism of inhibiting the enzyme MAO B, which breaks down dopamine, and prevents the breakdown of GABA, an inhibitory neurotransmitter that promotes relaxation.
Finally, several scientific studies have shown that saffron extract has significant and natural effectiveness in improving mood without causing the side effects associated with taking medications. Its active ingredients help modulate serotonin activity.
Using Optimood helps to improve mood, maintain a positive attitude, contribute to emotional balance and support relaxation.
