BulkSupplements.com Magnolia Bark Extract Powder - Magnolia Officinalis, Magnolia Bark Supplement, Magnolia Extract - Gluten Free, 800mg per Serving, 250g (8.8 oz) (Pack of 1)

This is truly the worst tasting supplement I have ever used. That said, it does seem to have a calming and soothing impact. Just brace yourself for the taste!

I like to read about the research regarding a supplement before I buy it. The research on Magnolia Bark is very interesting. Research has shown that magnolia bark is as effective a benzodiazepines are that your doctor would prescribe to you for anxiety. Benzodiazepines are highly addictive and have other harmful side effects. Magnolia Bark, on the other hand, is just as effective, but is not addictive, and causes no withdrawal symptoms if you stop using it. In addition, magnolia bark has several positive side effects, like weight loss, helps with depression (benzodiazepines can cause depression), and is full of valuable antioxidants. It can also help with pain management. I could find no bad effects for magnolia bark.I have used benzodiazepines before. They are a lot like alcohol; they get you drunk very similarly. My experience with Magnolia bark has been very different. Magnolia bark is much more gentle and does not cause me to feel drunk at all. Its effect is much lighter. It is considered a sleep aid, but it does not knock me out at all. It is just as good to take during the day while at work or spending time with family or friends. I much prefer Magnolia bark over benzodiazepines, with really hindered my social life and work performance.

I filled gelatin capsules with this powder and been taking it in the morning with breakfast. I have been struggling with anxiety and major depression and since I have started using this product, magnolia bark extract, my symptoms have improved. After further research I have learned that this supplement has been used as an ancient holistic remedy for multiple physical aliments as well. The powder itself appears pure without any fillers or bits of anything, it's appearance is a brown, fine powder. I am very happy with the quality, value, and effectiveness or this product. I will buy again.

ordered once before but this batch is completely different. it is clearly cut with lots of dextrin, to the point where the product is a completely different color than the last batch and has none of the scent, color, or taste of the actual magnolia bark anymore. also has no efficacy at this concentration, unlike the last batch. i wouldn’t buy it again and actually wish to get my money back because it’s basically useless and a complete scam. this is basically just a bag of dextrin

Got this for anxiety and as a sleep aid before bed. Does it work? For sleep I noticed a difference even though I hadn't taken it too long but for anxiety I would assume it will take weeks or months to see an effect, however I have very sever anxiety and depressive symptoms. I think the effect would be more pronounced in healthier individuals. Bonus is that it seems to be great for oral health and I've definitey seen a difference there!

I had ordered Bulk Supplements' Magnolia because their product contained no fillers. Unfortunately the Magnolia I received has Dextrin as an ingredient.

Magnolia bark extract is used to help normalize dysregulated cortisol and can help with insomnia.It also has anti-cancer properties. I combine it with ashwaganda and take at bedtime. It seems to work well, and I have had no adverse side effects.Bulk Supplements has good-quality products - I've also used their glycine for insomnia - moreeffective than three other brands of glycine that I had previously tried.

It seems as though the concentration of neolignans is dropping. I took some of this to my schools lab and ran a GCMS on it. 1.8 % honokiol and 2.2 % magnolol. Last bunch of it I got was actually 2% honokiol and 4.1 % magnolol. So it's less than advertised and definitely not accurately standardized. They could also do with a higher concentration extract. Other than that it's alright. It does what it's supposed to; it's a relaxing supplement and is helpful with anxiety and sleep.
