THe only thing I know, is that people keep asking on here if anyone has actually tried it. I haven't seen any replies suggesting that anyone around here has actually tried it.
Seems interesting through. I'm too chicken to order some, I was going to wait until someone else had tried it!
But I like both rhodiola rosea and SJW. They'd be pretty good together I reckon. But I'm not sure if they're contra indicated?

It says it's not for clinical depression in the small print. Also, if it contains an antidepressant compound I would expect a warning not to take it with other antidepressants without consulting your Dr. It doesn't, so I'm dubious about it

I do not recommend Amyron
It's a combo pill with SJW, 5-HTP, Rhodiola Rosea plus some vitamins.25 mg 5-HTP can actually cause fatigue due to 50% conversion rate to melatonin.
Rhodiola Rosea can cause anxiety/insomnia and is known to poop out.
If you are taking other vitamin supplements there is a risk of overdose.
A problem with combo pills is that it is difficult to figure out what is working and what is not working. It's better to try things seperately.
This is the end of the thread.
