> I am a physician in Dublin and I find that diagnosing and treating these conditions to be of great value for the majority of my patients with mental health problems.I also use the standard medical treatment for these same patients. Many of those with depression will be able to get off antidepressants successfully by using nutrients- proper levels for each individual of vitamins,minerals,essential fatty acids and amino acids. Those with a history of psychotic illness should not come off them but they will often get by on a lot less.Generally OCD responds poorly to nutrients while depression responds well.Over 50% of those with schizophrenia or bipolar get a worthwhile response.Young people respond best and those over 60 not at all.There is a good response recently for autistic children who start treatment by age 4. I have some more details in www.omega3.20megsfree.com
I realise the division into pyoluria or under/over methlation simplifies , and most dont fit into a neat group, but I have always had all the symptoms of pyolruia and worked out a similar testment(B6 and zinc)..which helped but didnt fully stop any problems fo over 25 yrs or so.
Thing is they talk about this "mauve factor" for diagnosis, or maybe I'm confusing the two pyoluria and kryptopyrrole..?
I did try placing my urine in the sun for a few days (many years ago), but no mauve?As I aged .. over 40 , then other things seem to play a part too.
As you say, younger responds better.Kind regards,
Jan
