DEVELOPMENT
A unique, truly function liquid, Sentia has been three years in the making. Designed by a team of innovators comprising world-leading Scientists and Plant Craftsmen, utilising a pioneering production process.
-
Identifying the individual plants which offer the desired effects.
-
Designing specific plant combinations to optimise blend performance.
-
Learning the best extraction and preservation methods.
Group participants were tested on the Brief Mood Introspection Scale (BMIS), the State-trait anxiety inventory 6 (STAI-6) and the self-constructed visual analogue scales (VASs) at baseline (pre-drink) and three timepoints after drinking (15 minutes, 30 minutes, & 60 minutes).
The BMIS and STAI were subject to paired t-tests, while the VASs were assessed using 1 way ANOVA with the factor time (baseline, 15, 30 and 60 minutes) with post-hoc t-tests comparing baseline to all post-drink timepoints (Bonferroni corrected).
Results demonstrate a significant increase in –
Pleasant mood (t(21)= -2.88, p= 0.009).
Relaxation (t(21)= 3.54, p= 0.002).
Contentedness (F(3,63) = 4.64, p = 0.005).
Energized ( F(3,63) = 5.46, p = 0.002).
Floaty/buzzy ( F(3,63) = 6.72, p < 0.001).
And a significant decrease in –
Anxiety (t(21)= 2.68, p= 0.014).
Irritability (F(3,63) = 11.15, p < 0.001).
Statically significant results were achieved within < 15 minutes. Results remained significant beyond 30 minutes and by 60 minutes, volunteers had returned to normal on all the scales except their irritability, which remained reduced.
