> Emme..I'd be inclined to say it is the pro-cholinergic effect, maybe not so much the SAMe effect, of Aricept you are taking. Having said that, do you find yourself gaining weight? SAMe has some anecdotal reports of weight loss. Also, if you are hungry because of increased metabolism, this may cause weight loss.

After your post I double checked the SEs of aricept and it's supposed to decrease appetite. My weight is creeping up. I'm keeping it minimized to some degree by trying to be disciplined and trying to exercise a bit more. But my metabolism seems to have shifted out of "eat whatever you want" mode and into "watch how much you eat or you'll plump up" mode. Maybe it's because I'm feeling more tired and I'm not burning as as many calories overall. So I dunno. I hope this doesn't last... I need to stay away from the ice cream shop at the end of my street!
