With stress and healthcare being topics of immense regularity across the globe, many people have taken to herbal supplements to regulate their moods and internal reactions to a multitude of crazy-making over the last several years. Furthermore, prescription medications especially for mental health saw an increase. How can you aid in stress relief through formulation development?

Being palatable is important

With more people looking to the power of plants, plant extracts including CBD have become ever-popular, but tricky to formulate with. While plant-derived supplements are the solution for some, others turned to prescriptions to take the edge off. If we are all trying to chill out, we shouldn’t have a bitter pill to swallow to get there.
