> Seems like they give detailed info on certain supps for somebody to try on their own...yet they say something to the effect that only those medical personnel who have been trained by the NeuroResearch folks get the desired results..something like that...there was a poster on the Babble board who "swore" by this very approach..looks interesting to me.Yes, it's frustrating that they don't sell their products directly, but we can glean some info from their contents at least. I was wondering if perhaps they only sell through docs so they can get clinical feedback to constantly update their data base, which is the basis for the forumulas and testing, I gathered.
Here is some of their competition. http://www.neuroscienceinc.com/index.html Less info, but this is interesting:
"We have found that patients respond much more favorably to neurotransmitter optimization if interventions that improve synthesis of serotonin are first. This is related to the network of interaction between serotonin, GABA, and the catecholamines. This is especially true of patients who are significantly deficient in serotonin as they are more likely to experience discomfort or anxiety when given supplements that preferentially act upon the catecholamines."
They wait two weeks before adding the catecholamine-affecting agents. I might rethink my own strategy based on that and just take 5-HTP alone for a while before adding the tyrosine/phenylalaline.
One of their links also led to this site, which is not one I've seen before: http://www.neurotransmitter.net/index.html Looks like he's done a lot of work reorganizing info on available studies...nicely updated too.
Here's another site, (from an article linked on the previous one) that I haven't seen before: http://www.psycheducation.org/index.html It's nice to see that at least SOME docs out there are taking time on the details.
