A just published scientific study conducted by researchers at the University of Miami School of Nursing in conjunction with The Sirkin Creative Living Center (SCLC) has found that Rescue Remedy™, an all-natural remedy created from flower essences, is an effective over-the-counter stress reliever with a comparable effect to traditional pharmaceutical drugs yet without any of the known adverse side effects, including addiction.
Rescue Remedy, manufactured by Nelsons, contains five flower essences: Rock Rose to alleviate terror and panic, Impatiens to mollify irritation and impatience, Clematis to combat inattentiveness, Star of Bethlehem to ease shock, and Cherry Plum to calm irrational thoughts. Available in a convenient spray bottle or in drop form, it helps to provide better emotional balance and fast, convenient relief from everyday stress.
"The result of this independent study is not only welcome news for those of us who encounter stressful situations every day, but particularly for the 40 million Americans who suffer from physician-diagnosed anxiety," said Ronald Stram, MD, who regularly prescribes Rescue Remedy to his anxious and stressed patients. "Stress compromises your ability to fight off disease and infection. It can even rewire the brain, making you more vulnerable to everyday pressures and problems."
###
Rescue™ Remedy has been a popular stress reliever since 1930 but until now had not been thoroughly investigated scientifically. This study specifically examined the product for the reduction of acute situational stress. A double-blind clinical trial comparing a standard dosage of Rescue Remedy against a placebo of identical appearance was conducted in a sample of 111 individuals aged 18 to 49. The Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) - a standard means to evaluate anxiety - was administered before and after the use of Rescue Remedy or placebo. The results suggest that Rescue Remedy may be effective in reducing high levels of situational anxiety. The results were just published in the latest edition of Complementary Health Practice Review.

Adverse Effects With Rescue Remedy
posted by Douglas Mansfield on 2 Aug 2007 at 3:42 amRescue remedy caused heart palpitations, restlessness, and agitation when I took it. Motor agitation was severe enough to be described as akathisia. Be careful when trying herbal remedies for the first time - herbs can be very potent.
Rescue Remedy Saved My Life !
posted by tara on 5 Nov 2007 at 8:59 amSince I was a child I was very sensitive, emotional and empathetic. From three years ago I started to suffer from panic attacks. In the past year I have got insomnia and tachycardia at night. Antianxiety medication helped but now not for a long. Same was with propanolol I have got to take for two months. I tried herbal medicine too…Nothing helped. It is hart to describe physical and emotional pain from inability to rest . My symptoms were worse with each day passing by.
I was unable to enjoy anymore the job I love so much - RN, my family and social life, too. I was getting depressed more and more. I cannot explain how I felt. So, one day friend of friend of mine told me about Rescue Remedy; also my husband's friend who had nervous breakdown told me about Rescue Remedy, too; both of them claimed that Rescue Remedy cured their insomnia and helped than more any other prescription ever !
I came to the store bought the remedy and few minutes later I was calm and started to relax. It is unbelievable it is miracle! I still cannot believe that something like that really exists. That day for the first time in a year I had 6 hours of continuous sleep without tachycardia.
So, few months ago I bought my very first Rescue Remedy; now I am different person. I use Rescue Remedy whenever I feel uneasy or under stress and Rescue Remedy become my best friend; also I have to mention that my son who is 16 takes the remedy as well and he stopped to bite his nails and he does not have sweating palms anymore; he is much more focused in the school. Everybody in my household have Rescue Remedy in the pocket wherever we go.
I am proud to spread a word about Rescue Remedy and Dr. Dr Edward Bach whenever I can. Rescue Remedy can save someone’s life as saved mine!

Help with Alzheimer's erratic behavior?
posted by Cindy on 7 Sep 2010 at 9:11 amWe have recently started putting Rescue Remedy in my mother-in-law's chocolate milk, especially at night, because she had been suddenly exhibiting some extremely erratic and upsetting behaviors. She is in 6th stage of Alzheimer's dementia, with Sundowner syndrome. It seems to be helping her immensely!! The last two days she has been like a different person.
She is taking a renewed interest in watching TV,which she hadn't for weeks! The erratic and aggressive behaviors seem to have calmed, at least for now! Has anyone else had experience with RR and dementia in elderly??

So simple but effective
posted by MIneke on 6 Aug 2011 at 1:58 amMy husband and I both have a bottle next to our bed. We going through a rough patch with financial worry etc, easy to wake up at night and be right awake and worry. Rescue remedy comes to the rescue (we have added chestnut for additional calming) and unbelievably after 15 minutes or so, you simple drift off to sleep again. So simple, so effective!
Is there weight gain with Rescue Remedy
posted by Cheryl on 21 Oct 2011 at 10:24 pmI just started taking Rescue Remedy for stress. I was wondering if there is weight gain when using this product. Because I am not eating any differently and I am gaining weight quickly. I have only used it for two days so far.
Alzheimers
posted by sulene on 21 Dec 2011 at 3:02 amCindy, my dad also has Alzheimers. He used to be a phlegmatic person before the disease and some days are good, but others not so when he displays some "terrible two's" behaviour. It is stressful for my mom & that confuses him even more because he understands to a degree that he caused the problem & then starts to cry. I encouraged her to take some rescue & also give my dad some. She said that it helps a lot to smooth the more stressful days for both of them.
