Integrative Therapeutics Lavela WS 1265 - Silexan Supplement for Sleep & Stress Support* - Lavender Essential Oil - 60 Softgels (60 Servings)

I recommend this to many people. Very helpful

Have been on these lavender pills for years. Love them. Help so so much with anxiety. You will have a pleasant lavender burp every once in awhile but the benefit of this product is fantastic.

My doctor suggested these to be seven years ago and I had my first anxiety attack. They are amazing without having any drowsy side effects and safe to take daily if needed. I take one if I’m having an excessively stressful day and I thought that it just levels me out.

I found this product from Integrative Therapeutics when I did a web search for an herbal anti-anxiety supplement. Lavela WS 1265 is “clinically studied lavender oil.” And that’s all. According to the blog on which I found this product mentioned, Lavender oil is recommended extensively in Germany as an anxiety remedy, and some research concludes that it can be as effective as prescription drugs. Google “Silexan research” and you will find, on PubMed, an abstract of a clinical study that concludes that this specific lavender extract supplement “had a significant beneficial influence on quality and duration of sleep and improved general mental and physical health without causing any unwanted sedative or other drug specific effects. Lavandula oil preparation silexan is both efficacious and safe for the relief of anxiety disorder not otherwise specified. It has a clinically meaningful anxiolytic effect and alleviates anxiety related disturbed sleep.” The pills are small and deep red, easy to swallow. The package recommends one or two a day, so I started with one. After a few days, I increased it to two. Does it do anything? It does. Am I sure it is not a placebo effect, notwithstanding the clinical research? Not at all. However, that does not matter to me. What’s important is that I DO feel more calm. If it’s because of the lavender, or because of my mind’s belief in the power of an herb, I cannot say for sure. However, there is clinical evidence to suggest that the effect is not simply a placebo. It’s absolutely worth trying. For me: so far so good.

This product is amazing! I was having a hard time sleeping through the night, saw this and had recently read about it as a sleep aid (amazon has everything!!!) Well I take 1 tiny little tablet and off to sleep in 10 to 15 minutes. And sleep all night until I rise at 4:30 am normally. It is a Godsend product. And it a product made from Lavender oil, all the better.

This is extremely effective especially in the evening before bed if you're like me and your brain and body need a little time to wind down and relax in order to fall asleep. I've taken this in the past and remember it helping and decided to try it again. Lastnight I slept better than I have in a long time and on top of that I had been fighting a migraine all day and once this kicked in the migraine was gone. It is totally worth the price, if you can swing it, due to the effectiveness of just one pill and especially due to the fact that peer reviewed studies show it to be as effective is xanax, Valium and prozac for anxiety and without any bad side effects. The only side effect of the lavela is you might burp a lavender taste once or twice soonafter taking it but then it is fine and I'm totally cool with that considering the level of significant negative side effects (including dependency) that can be caused by the prescription options. And I would rather not take sleep medication either. I took this lastnight along with the same company product of "cortisol manager" and I slept through the night without any sleep medication (normally take Ambien but didn't last night). If you are not sure whether or not to get this I strongly encourage you to get it and give it a try. I really have had trouble finding a medicine that truly helps my chronic anxiety and this works wonders in the evening to help wind down and be relaxed before attempting to go to bed. It can be taken in the morning once too and i also have done that without any grogginess. Also if you specifically have insomnia as well from anxiety this combined with Cortisol Manager gave me the best sleep I had in a long time. I don't even remember falling asleep, it was that quick once I got into bed.

This is one few supplements, that I feel an effect from. it does help wind be down at the end of the day. I like take and have an N/A type of drink to chill away from screens before bed. I 100% recommend,

My wife and I both tried this and had high hopes as we struggle with anxiety and insomnia. In a short time we felt a relaxed effect, but then it went downhill from there. She experienced a lot of heartburn/indigestion even though it was taken a short time after eating and with a full glass of water. We both fell asleep ok in less than an hour, but after that were tossing and turning all night and could not stay asleep. It disrupted our sleep more than it helped. I know products can affect everyone differently, but have realistic expectations if you decide to try this. We read many of the recent reviews before purchasing which were encouraging. However, I'm always skeptical when I read some of the reviews that sounded like a commercial ad. Also, those who claimed that this was as effective and could replace a prescription anxiety med like Xanax or other Benzo's was really hard to believe and as we found out, completely false. While that would be fantastic, there's no way this would be so easily available and not be classified as a controlled substance if that were true.
