Excellent supplement for mood support, 2007-06-09
I have to be extremely careful when I use natural supplements to help treat my mood disorder. For example, SAMe is a death warrant for people with bipolar mood disorder as it has been implicated with manic episodes. For people who think natural supplements are expensive sugar pills, I have news for them--natural supplements can really work, but they have to be used judiciously. Just as a person wouldn't be wise to take Paxil, Zoloft, and Prozac all at the same time, a person wouldn't be wise to mix natural (mood remedy) supplements either.

It's best to talk to a nutritionist/herbalist and a pharmacist to make sure natural supplements do not contraindicate pharmaceutical meds or other natural supplements. I don't believe the argument that synthetic meds are better---I have never had much luck with any b/f getting on a low dosage of Lamictal (initially an anticonvulsive med that also works as a mood stabilizer). Pharmaceutical companies don't get to patent existing natural remedies and chemicals--so they're not exactly forthcoming about nature's Xanax.

(And if you really want to watch a runaway conspiracy theory movie (albeit fictitious) about the evils of pharmaceutical companies, rent "The Constant Gardener." On a smaller scale, there was a real-life cover-up of one of the meds I was on for depression and anxiety. This med was known to cause metabolic distress, i.e., weight gain, increased risk for diabetes, and increase in bad cholesterol, while being linked to tardive dyskinesia and psychotic episodes. This med is now the center of a multi-million dollar lawsuit. Eli Lilly pharmaceutical company already knew of these health risks yet managed to keep them under the radar. Eli Lilly won a lawsuit to stop the Internet dissemination and downloading of documents about this medication's health risks, and some U.S.-based websites were forced to remove these documents. Fortunately, this judgment has since been reversed and now anyone can download information about the dangers of one of Eli Lilly's top-grossing drugs.)

Anyhoo, enough of my soapbox. GABA Calm works (at least for my brain's biochemistry). It works two-fold for both mood support and anti-anxiety. And you are talking to a person who has tried many different meds and supplements. I'm extremely sensitive to medications and most often don't tolerate them well (with side effects ranging from off-the-charts liver function profiles, drowsiness, weight gain followed by gauntness, to a thyroid storm with delirium (post-op complications to oral surgery/faulty titration) because of complications with meds). (However, many people on pharmaceutical mood stabilizers and anti-depressants do not experience these side effects.) GABA Calm uses gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA, a neurotransmitter known for its calming effects), L-tyrosine (a precursor of norepinephrine), magnesium, taurine, and glysine. Take this without protein for best results. Definitely check with your doctor, pharmacist, nutritionist, and/or herbalist first.
