Summary |
Nerves Formula Tincture is advertised as a liquid extract created to calm and soothe the nerves. According to the product’s website, this formula is 100% organic and can also help treat conditions such as arthritis, lumbar pain, numbness, psoriasis, and stress and even weight loss.
There are a growing number of products entering the market that are intended to increase feelings of calmness, since more and more people tend to feel the effects that a stressful lifestyle can take. We will take a closer look at this tincture’s formula to see whether or not it holds up as a valid aid for reducing stress and tension.

The Nerves Formula Tincture consists of a blend of herbal extracts mixed with grain alcohol and water. These herbs include Skullcap, Passion Flower, Valerian, Mistletoe, and Hops, and as mentioned, is 100% organic.

As mentioned, this is a liquid tincture designed for oral supplementation. According to the product’s label, one dose is 6-12 drops, and these drops can be placed in juice, water or under the tongue, whichever method is preferable to consumers.
The taste of the liquid is not described, however, and consumers must remember that it is an alcohol-based extract, which may not be pleasing to the palate of all individuals. As an alternative, oral supplements are available in capsule-based formulas that contain natural ingredients as well. Consumers may wish to try products containing the mineral lithium, which has been shown to help elevate the mood and reduce feelings of stress and anxiety.

| Final Thoughts |
|
As mentioned, we appreciate that this product claims to use extracts that are all organic, and that it claims to be able to treat such a wide variety of symptoms and health conditions. We would appreciate seeing the research studies to back up these claims, however, or at least be able to read customer testimonials to let us know that it is as effective as it as advertised to be.
For an alternative, products are available in capsule form, as discussed above. We have found that the mineral lithium, when combined with the mineral carrier Orotate, can help to elevate the mood relatively quickly without any known side effects. We recommend seeking companies that offer free product trials so that consumers can feel confident about their purchases.
