SAM-e / SAMe (S-Adenosyl Methionine)
SAMe supplementation increases levels of
serotonin, dopamine and phosphatides, and improves serotonin and
dopamine receptor site binding. Interestingly, treatment with
antidepressant drugs that results in improved mood usually also results
in increased levels of SAMe, regardless of the drug used. SAMe has been
shown in a number of studies to bring arthritis pain relief comparable
to that of the oft-prescribed NSAID's, naproxin and piroxicam - without
their side effects.

Vitamin B Complex
The Vitamin B Complex vitamins are a group
of similarly structured compounds, which is why we refer to them as a
'complex'. This complex of chemicals consists of B1 (thiamine), B-2
(riboflavin), B-3 (niacin), B-5 (pantothenic acid), B-6 (pyridoxine),
B-7 (biotin), B-12 (cobalamin), and folic acid (folate or folacin).
PABA, inositol and choline are often included in this group. B vitamins
provide health of the skin, bones, hair and muscle; relief of moodiness,
restlessness, irritability, and fatigue; relief from skin problems,
including dry, itchy skin, rashes and relief from PMS.

5-HTP
5-HTP, or 5-hydroxytryptophan, is the
immediate precursor of serotonin. Low levels of serotonin are associated
with sleep problems, depression, anxiety, compulsive disorders
(including eating disorders), restless leg syndrome, migraines,
fibromyalgia, and low pain threshold. Many people that are afflicted
with one of those conditions often have others, which has led some
researchers to label them collectively as "Low Serotonin Syndrome".

Melatonin
Melatonin is a hormone derived from
serotonin and produced in the pineal gland during periods of darkness,
but not light. Exposure to light results in a rapid breakdown of
melatonin. Melatonin can help you get to sleep faster and reduces the
number of times you wake up during the night.

Acetyl L-Carnitine
Acetyl L Carnitine is used by the body to
transport long chain fatty acids to the mitochondria in your cells,
where they are burned for energy. Studies have shown that Acetyl
L-Carnitine benefits may include aiding your body's ability in fighting
age-related mental decline and blood-sugar regulation.

DMAE
DMAE (Dimethylaminoethanol) is a chemical
naturally produced in the human brain. It is thought to be used by the
body in converting choline to the neurotransmitter, acetylcholine (i.e.,
it is a precursor to acetylcholine). This is the basis for thinking
that supplementing with DMAE will enhance brain activity. Research so
far is not compelling, but this potentially positive impact has
compelled people to use DMAE for age-related mental decline, senility
and other brain maladies.
