Daily supplementation with an extract from French oak wood may help reduce symptoms of fatigue associated with burnout syndrome, says a new pilot study from Italy.
A daily 300 mg dose of the Robuvit® French oak wood extract for four weeks was associated with lower feelings of fatigue and improved tolerance in young surgeons and business managers, according to ndings published in Minerva Medica. “ in this pilot supplement study on BOS [burnout syndrome] — a condition not easy to evaluate, measure or manage — Robuvit® appears to control fatigue (the primary symptom in these groups) and the associated oxidative stress with most important symptoms associated to BOS,” wrote researchers led by Dr Gianni Belcaro from Irvine3 Labs in Pescara, Italy.
