Polygala Tenuifolia Capsules

What are Polygala Tenuifolia 20:1 Extract Capsules (Yuan Zhi)

Polygala tenuifolia is a perennial purple flowering plant that grows in Asia in various environments but is more commonly found growing in moist soil. Polygala can be found growing in a variety of climates but can mostly be found in grasslands, shrub forests, or prairies. Although it may seem fairly unknown, Polygala tenuifolia root has been widely used in Traditional Chinese practices and is known as Yuan Zhi or Chinese Senega. Polygala is believed to support overall cognitive function when consumed orally. Written anecdotal evidence from users report that Yuan Zhi’s calming and stimulating effects support focus and cognition without the negative drawbacks such as jitters or other feelings of overstimulation like when taking large amounts of caffeine. In fact, modern research has discovered that Yuan Zhi has adaptogen-like properties that make it a great supplement to promote healthy stress levels while simultaneously supporting optimal cognitive function. Yet, more organized research is needed to solidify this evidence.

Polygala Yuan Zhi Benefits and Uses

    • May help support cognitive function*
    • May help promote feelings of well being*
    • May help support healthy stress levels*
    • May help promote respiratory health*
    • May help support neuroplasticity*
    • May help promote sleep quality*

Polygala and The Brain

Most plant extracts usually have one to two primary effects. Polygala however, has a wide range of effects, making it a unique and versatile plant extract. Regular Polygala users report experiencing a stimulating yet calm sensation when taking a Polygala supplement. This is particularly unique since this sort of feeling is typically achieved with a pairing of 2 or more supplements or what some call a ‘supplement stack’, such as Caffeine and L-Theanine. Even though it is quite stimulating, Polygala tenuifolia may also help support sleep quality. Some people say that the calming effects appear to outlast the stimulating effects which is good for those looking for balanced stimulation. The Polygala sleep promoting effects are believed to be associated with Polygala’s tenuifolin content. Tenuifolin a bioactive compound found in Polygala tenuifolia root extracts. Human studies also appear to suggest that Polygala tenuifolia may help promote spatial awareness and organization.

A few studies on Polygala found that taking a Polygala tenuifolia extract may help support neuroplasticity. Neuroplasticity is the process by which our brains can adapt, grow, and change, which is a critical process for various cognitive functions since they are dependent on sufficient levels of neuroplasticity. Neuroplasticity is the foundation of memory and memories, as our memory and memories are believed to be stored by neuron connections that are physically changing. These changes are dependent on neuroplasticity. Two of the largest regulators for neuroplasticity are brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and nerve growth factor (NGF). Research has discovered that an increase in either NGF or BDNF may result in a notable increase in neuroplasticity. Many people believe Polygala tenuifolia elevates both NGF and BDNF levels. Increasing BDNF and NGF levels suggests that Polygala tenuifolia may help promote overall brain health as well as cognitive function.

Polygala Tenuifolia Dosage

As a dietary supplement, take one 100mg Polygala tenuifolia 20:1 Extract capsule one to three times daily.

    Substantial Mood Boost

    Very surprised. 3 or 4 days in, starting to see a big boost in mood. Feeling a lot more positive, happy and upbeat. Will update this review if anything changes. P.S. Taking 1 pill 3x a day. Last dose before 5 bc it’s somewhat stimulating for me.

    Polygala

    No uplifting mood No motivation No sleepiness Just here, maybe even feeling a little blue now. I was ok before taking it...emotionally. I purchased this product...several after reading the "good" reviews. I realized after leaving a review....it NEEDS to be approved! So, how many of the bad reviews were deleted by the company?! ...ND Admin: Nothing was deleted. Reviews have to be manually approved because of legal issues with disease claims, and we had a couple hundred that had not yet been approved. We just got to them now. No conspiracy. Just delays in approving them.

    Game changer

    This took a few days to kick in, but once it did I felt quite energized. It made me reduce my caffeine intake quite drastically. Overall I feel more healthy, it also helped me with my inflammation issues, I feel normal again, no pain. I also feel more focused and strong. I think this is really powerful when you stack it daily with Primavie. I feel like I don´t even need coffee to start my day, and I never thought that was even possible. I encourage you to try it. Congratulations to ND team for this amazing supplement. It is quite impressive and I'm sure it will help a lot of people to improve their quality of life.

    For Attention Issues

    If you have attention issues, or have trouble focusing (feeling floaty), or generally depressed. I'm not kidding, please for the love of god try this out. 3 capsules throughout the day, within 2 days I saw a massive difference. Warning - if you start to get super itchy and break out into a rash everywhere, that happened to my wife. If anyone knows how to combat the allergic reaction, that would be wonderful news so she can keep taking it (her words not mine)

    Great stuff

    I’ve been using this sublingually for the past month 3x a a day. Wow. This stuff is incredible. It’s like I have an extra edge at work. My performance and mood have been on point every day. I have a lot of repressed emotions too and this brought all of that out of me ina. Very healthy way. What a compound. Thank you.

    Cognitive Clarity & Stamina

    I have been taking 200mg in the morning and 100mg at night and after about 5 days, the mental clarity I have on a regular basis is astounding. I also feel like my brain doesn’t get as fatigued from reading a lot.

    Helped with my mood

    I’m fairly née to Nootropics. Started out with the basic ones (Lions Mane, Alpha GPC, L-Tyrosine) and after trying a few others finally tried the Polygala and had helped my mood and I feel a little happier. I take two capsules every morning.

    Will Strengthener

    Polygala is considered to be a "Strengthener of Will" and it really does seem to do exactly that. I originally took this for it's effects on mood, BDNF levels and neurogenesis of the hippocampus. What I actually got from it couldn't be more sought out for me personally. The effects are incredibly subtle but what I have noticed is my "will" has definitely increased. Ever since taking this supplement my life has changed dramatically. Nowadays I do exactly what I want without any anxiety. Whereas before there were significant changes in my life that I was scared to make the leap for. Even with non-significant, small things I would struggle a little. Now with this, my will has definitely strengthened to do what I want without hesitation. I practically do not care at all what anybody says or thinks about me anymore. Whereas before those things would really eat at me. Polygala has seemingly completely removed that pressure. Now I am incredibly free to do what I want. It has helped me to grow as a person quite a bit. In the beginning I was taking 3 a day but now I am coasting pretty well with 1 just a day. I highly recommend this to anyone needing to increase their will in life.

    Mood

    Dose: 100mg sublingually twice per day. Mood heightening effects definitely hit you on day 4, and after that the same effects have continued for at least little bit over a month and counting. One effect that loses its potency after few days of continuous use is the effect on focus. One weird effect polygala has had on me is that caffeine doesn't seem to induce that dopamine spike. That good feeling, that motivation from caffeine is just gone. This might be due Polygala inhibiting D2 receptor activation via A2a receptor agonist properties. [doi: 10.1016/j.lfs.2004.04.045.] Overall Polygala has been one of the best Nootropics I have tried, and I'm planning to order more when I run out of supply.

    Works for Mood But Had Some Issues

    I started taking this and definitely noticed a mood boost in just a few days time. Unfortunately though I started having some side effects. I had a dull achy headache at the forehead/eyes area. I also have a minor eye tic (blinking, squinting, etc...), and taking this made it 10x worse, which could co-relate with the headache. I ceased taking it and everything went back to normal, then I started taking it again to confirm and the symptoms came back. I really wish I could keep taking it but unfortunately that won't be possible.

    Affects the hear

    Hi, I am very impressed by the ability of the product. There is just one major drawback. It affects the heart. The heartbeat shoots up with the simplest of cardio exercises. Has anyone experienced this?

    Needs patience, but well worth it!

    Not sure when it started to make a difference. One day, around the 3 week mark at 100mg 3 x day I noticed that any mild side effects from my stack were gone. Very much like L-theanine but with more to contribute - has it's own unique effects. But the 1st thing was that, although I can still over do things on a lethargic day, this smooths out all the edges. I kind of 'melting' my stack into a more rounded effect, making it more difficult to say, "ah, now I feel the ***** kicking in" etc. I feel that is a positive thing. Need to try this in slightly higher doses, 200mg perhaps and by itself. Easy to do as it is such a reasonable price!

    Don't feel good

    I put 3 stars because i think this is good quality but not for me at all. I just feel a bad energy boost and no increase in mood, i had to stop to take it after 2 days... I'm very disappointed because i thought it was a good solution for boosting mood and motivation.

    WOW!

    This is on its way to becoming my favorite product from ND. I mean I really feel all of the advertised benefits immediately. This is a must-try. I don't even know what else to say, except I'll be purchasing it again.

    Mood booster

    I dont feel down and so this review is from someone who just wanted to try polygala and see what it does. I didn't notice any effects except perhaps a subtle mood boost until in 2 weeks I increased my dosage from 1 pill 3 times a day to 3 pills three times a day. At this point I could feel the herbs effects on my mood clearly as somewhat pleasant. It feel like a serotonin increase that I could feel on the back of my neck and head. I think that it affected my body coordination in a negative way. I prefer to use in in lower doses as a subtle mood boost over longer durations.

    Top supplement

    Fantastic. My mood is through the roof - meaning, extremely positive. I had some things occur which would drive most off the deep end last week. It really helped. Man this should be doctor prescribed and this is definitely not placebo.

    Most effective natural product I have ever taken

    This is a game-changing supplement for me. It hits everything I am looking for. I get better mood. I get better memory. I get more energy. I seem to sleep better. This is just a perfect supplement for me. I am surprised more people are not talking about this one!

    Life Changing!

    This product has surprised me with how effective it is. It increases my mood, boosts focus, and improves my sleep. No side effects so far either. This is one that I am likely going to keep taking for a long time.

    Too stimulating

    It was too stimulating even in small doses. I think I just react badly to cholinergic nootropic and Polygala is an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor. I don't like also adrenaline rush. But that's just my reaction. Great quality and fast shipping!

    Thorough review to come SOON taking as directed

    I have ordered numerous types of supplements, and I have to say they are all a great quality. Some work great for me, while others I have not been too thorough in taking to write reviews. I just got my order today for this 20:1 Polygala tenuifolia. I am very excited to try this and I will let you my reviews on it. Also, I have to just say your Admins have the most hilarious comments to the trolls who right reviews. I also think it shows the confidence you have in the quality of products that you sell. The shipping is always fast and easy too! Thank you guys! P.S. #5 review is just suffering from the nocebo effect(of all the products apparently) HAHA.
