Studies also indicate significant anti-oxidant activity. |

| Sceletium | |
|
Sceletium
tortuosum is a rare succulent distributed in certain semi-desert areas
of Southern Africa. Sceletium elevates mood and decreases anxiety, stress and tension, and functions as a model anxiolytic (anti-anxiety substance), as well as being a very effective anti-depressant. Sceletium is known to reduce addictive cravings particularly with regard to nicotine and also lessens the withdrawal effects of alcohol and other addictive drugs. It also helps balance aberrant brain chemistry caused by the effects of serotonin-depleting drugs. |
