To Jabar: Thanks again for your excellent answer on the topic of L-phenylalanine (I even emailed my MD and he said there should not be a problem taking it following certain guidelines).
I'm told to take it on an empty stomach. If I take 2 tabs a day.............which is the manufact. suggested dosage of 500mg each.......I'm thinking one tab an hour before lunch and breakfast. What do you think of this possible plan?? Any additional thoughts are always appreciated. BTW, when do you think I might begin tell if its working? Your friend, HeadRanger George in San Francisco |

Taking the dosage before lunch and breakfast would work great.
This can safely be taken along with your current prescription medications, (except MAO inhibitors). Continue taking them until you begin to see improvement. Then, consider making the personal decision to lower the prescription medications gradually until you get to (hopefully) none.
Take REGULARLY, (A Key To Success). Everybody's brain chemistry is different, so think of time as relative. Most see noticeable results within 7-10 days, some take longer, some less.
Taking on an EMPTY STOMACH enables a much greater portions to pass into the blood stream, and therefore the brain. Taken with food, their effectiveness can drop 60% or more! Take them 15 minutes before, or Two Hours after, eating. (Another Key To Success).
Let me know how you do with the L-phenylalanine.
Take Care Jackie
