Formula composition and herbal activity in the Prodernal supplement

The formula’s ingredients and their properties, as known from ancient traditions and contemporary research:

Olive leaf – Olea europaea – Traditionally used to reduce stress and anxiety. It has anti-inflammatory and antiviral properties, supports blood circulation, and helps dilate the coronary arteries. It is also used to help reduce blood sugar, cholesterol, and blood pressure levels.

Rosemary – Rosmarinus officinalis – An adaptogen traditionally used for depression, anxiety, memory disorders, attention and concentration difficulties, and headaches.

Ashwagandha – Withania somnifera – An adaptogen traditionally used for stress and anxiety, memory and cognitive support, insomnia, anemia, immune system support, and diabetes. It is considered a type of ginseng with a gentle yet deep effect.

Vervain – Verbena officinalis – Traditionally used to calm and strengthen the nervous system and to support depression, anxiety, postpartum depression, and sleep disorders. It may also assist the digestive system when affected by stress and anxiety by acting as a mild laxative and stimulating the secretion of bile and gastric juices. It is traditionally used for antiviral support, improving breast milk production, premenstrual syndrome (PMS), irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), headaches, migraines, constipation, and liver inflammation.

Ledebouriella – Ledebouriella divaricata – Traditionally used to address restlessness and promote inner calm based on a sense of strength. In Chinese medicine, it is considered a “wind-releasing” herb and is used to support immune restoration. This is also associated with the adrenal glands, as adrenal weakness may affect immune function. Emotionally, its activity may be described as helping to “calm an inner storm,” resulting in a greater sense of security and tranquility. It is also traditionally used for rheumatoid arthritis, weakened immunity, joint and muscle pain, headaches, muscle spasms, flu, and colds.

Schizonepeta – Schizonepeta tenuifolia – Traditionally associated with immune system regulation, which may indicate support for adrenal balance. It has antiviral properties and is used to strengthen the immune system. In traditional Chinese medicine, it is also considered a “wind-releasing” herb. It has cooling and perspiration-promoting properties and is traditionally used for skin infections, hemorrhoids, flu, headaches, excessive uterine bleeding, allergies, eczema, psoriasis, and kidney and liver support.

Rehmannia – Rehmannia glutinosa – An adaptogen traditionally used to restore and support the adrenal glands and assist with sleep disorders. It may support the digestive system when affected by stress and anxiety by acting as a mild laxative and stimulating the secretion of bile and gastric juices. It is also traditionally used for menopausal concerns, diabetes, controlling bleeding, constipation, and rheumatism.
