L-phenylalanine instead of SSRI's?

Posted by Michael Hearn on December 20, 1998, at 23:22:29


Can daily doses of L-phenylalanine(500-1000mg), Vitamins C,B6(200-1500mg),choline(3gm),lecithin(80gm), & tryptophan(1-8gm) be used in place of SSRI's or other antidepressants? Does this combination have any addictive qualities as SSRI's? Any withdrawal period? How long to noticeable results.

James here....

I've used this "smart drug " combo b4 and found it to be of benifit. However clinical depression is not due to a lack of precursers for neurotransmitters. This combo can be a good adjunct to taking an AD but not a substute for and AD (assuming one has clinical depression)
