Lavender oil has several active ingredients useful for relieving mental stress, exhaustion, and sleep problems.
Lavender oil is steam distilled from lavender flowers. The unique mosaic of natural phytochemicals includes linalool and linalyl acetate, considered its main active compounds.
Linalool exerts a relaxant effect on smooth muscle by inhibiting the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter compound that acts within the neuromuscular junction. Simply put, acetylcholine triggers the nerves to stimulate the muscles; modulation of this compound promotes relaxation. Lavender oil has also been shown to support acid activity. gamma- aminobutyric (GABA), the amino acid that regulates brain activity and relaxes.
New Roots Herbal's D-Stress capsules produce relaxing effects for both body and mind.
