SNS Cistanche XT - 350 mg. Per Capsule - Intro & Discussion Thread

[jarrellt67]

Ya it is one of those things to keep in mind with adaptogenic herbs, they may give different effects depending on the user. I've only had experience with SNS extract via Anabolic XT. In the past with other brands I didn't notice as much "energy".

I'd probably just keep it in the later stages of the day to help with winding down if I felt that way with it, does it seem to benefit you in other ways yet?

Yeah, I've definitely noticed other benefits already with regard to libido (which considering my long work hours, poor sleep, and taking care of three kids, has been pretty non-existent for a few years).

Does anyone else experience unbelievably calming effects from Cistanche XT? I tried it a few times during the day but it was way too calming/sedating. Tried it before bed and slept great but was pretty groggy in the morning. It seems to be an awesome sleep aid for me.

Thank you for the feedback. I've only tried one other brand of cistanche, and while it was also pretty calming, this one feels much stronger.

Cistanche XT uses the C30X extract, which is std. to a min. 30% Echinacoside, so its a great potency.

Most people report feeling more of a vitality and better daily energy level from it.

@Resolve10 mentioned a great point though - with adaptogenic herbs, they adapt to the user and one person that needs to have more energy may find the same thing invigorating that another person may find relaxing if they need relaxation more.

Plus, there's a good chance that it may be working well and you seeing more of the relaxing attributes with it going along with some of the other things you're using with it.
