Summary |
As its name suggests, Happy Camper is designed to “boost the mood” and help users to overcome frustration and stress. Many cultures have used natural ingredients for generations in order to help calm frazzled nerves and ease tension. Now, as natural remedies gain acceptance in Western medicine more and more individuals are turning to herbs and other holistic treatments in order to help them achieve a more balanced state of mind.
In fact, Happy Camper promises more than just relief from stress. Its product description challenges consumers to try the product and see how much easier it is to try new things and be more outgoing, even going so far as to suggest that this product may even help some individuals find love. We will take a close look at Happy Camper in order to determine its benefits and whether or not it can truly live up to its claims.

| Ingredients at a Glance |
|
We were disappointed to find that the manufacturer of Happy Camper does not post a complete list of ingredients. However, some of its main components are: Kava Kava, which comes from an Indonesian pepper and is believed to help promote relaxation; Gotu Kola, a member of the parsley family that is believed to boost mental energy; and Schizandra berry, which is thought to calm frazzled nerves.

| Ingredients in Focus |
|
Contrary to what its name seem to suggest, Gotu Kola is unrelated to cola, and contains no caffeine. It is actually a medicinal herb that Far East healers have been using for centuries to support the body’s vitality. Its proponents claim that it helps to decrease fatigue, increase energy levels and promote the metabolism. Unfortunately, studies do not seem to support these claims, but the herb has been indicated to aid memory and improve the function of the circulatory system. It also contains vitamins A, B, E, and K.

| Lifestyle |
|
Happy Camper is likely to appeal to consumers who are interested in taking an herbal supplement to help them to better cope with stress. There are quite a few herbal stress relief products on the market in the form of teas, eye pillows, aromatherapy oils, and much more. Herbs like St. John’s Wort have also offered many individuals relief from symptoms of mild depression. Unfortunately, as previously discussed, the herbs in this product have not been as thoroughly studied and may not effective enough to treat mood swings resulting from PMS, menopause, or other factors.

| Final Thoughts |
|
Many consumers are drawn to herbal treatments by their “gentleness” and low incidence of side effects. For this reason, individuals who are struggling with stress and anxiety may want to consider a supplement containing the all-natural form of the mineral lithium. While the synthetic from of lithium is a very powerful drug, the natural mineral is actually quite mild, and very little is required to produce a more peaceful state of mind, especially when used in combination with an absorption enhancer like Orotate.
In spite of its claims, there is little evidence that the herbs in Happy Camper can actually help to relieve stress and mood swings. We recommend that consumers look for a product containing natural lithium in order to enjoy a more balanced outlook.
