• Mood Support

SAM-e (s-andenosylmethionine) is a naturally occurring compound found in all living organisms.  In humans, SAM-e is distributed throughout the body and is involved in many biochemical processes.  Since significant amounts of SAM-e are not available through diet alone, the body is primarily responsible for producing its own SAM-e.  Scientists know that SAM-e declines as people age and that certain groups of people including those with low mood and liver conditions, tend to have lower levels of SAM-e in their bodies.  Over 100 clinical studies involving thousands of people have proven that SAM-e supplementation benefits a multitude of body functions including:

• Mood Support:  Enhances mood by promoting a healthy balance of neurotransmitters, dopamine and serotonin, which are part of overall healthy brain cell functions.
• Joint Pain Relief:  Relieves joint pain by helping to repair and maintain joint cartilage which actually deteriorates with physical activity and age.
• Liver Health:  Helps support detoxification and overall healthy liver functions.

moodplus™ SAM-e is the same form of SAM-e available and administered for over 20 years by doctors in Europe.  It is the only for of SAM-e studied in over two decades of research, as well as the most documented form in respected medical journals.  Short and long-term studies have prevent that SAM-e is a safe, non-toxic and efficacious product to support your health.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Miracle for Me, June 27, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Nature Made SAM-e Mood Plus 200mg, (20 + 10 Free Enteric Coated Tablets) (Health and Beauty)

This is an ode to SAM-e, the silver bullet in my life. I was a woman so depressed that I turned off not only my friends but my family. I couldn't cheer up even in the most happy circumstances. I was not able to get pleasure out of anything. Although trying somewhat valiantly to screw up my face into a pleasant expression, the result was an unattractive grimace that turned people off. I tried therapy. Zilch. Psychiatrists would inform me after various tests that I was depressed as though I don't know that. Via psychiatrists I played the field of anti-depressants. Librium (although I am not a manic depressive) gave me a ghastly migraine headache as did Pamelor, Wellbutrin, Tofranil, and many others. Xanax had no effect one way or the other. St. John's Wort did nothing. 5-HTP was a dud. Methionine didn't do a thing nor did tryptophan when it was available before being taken off the market. One tricyclic I do take because it enables me to sleep is Elavil. It has no effect on my mood but apparently relaxes me enough to propel me into the arms of Morpheus.

Although quite homely in appearance, I learned at a young age that I could easily overcome my physical attributes by being charming. I emoted, I listened, I sympathized. My formula worked well until I hit about forty years old and the bottom fell out of my world. I simply became a totally different person, one who became not only uncharming, but unattractive. At one point I went to a college reunion with some of my old college buds. A wonderful menu of activities was planned . I tried to get my face to mirror great joy in these events, and was so unsuccessful that my hostess took me aside and gave me hell for being such a wet blanket. I said nothing because no explanation would register with a normal person with normal emotions. My feelings were shattered, but that happened every day.

I became self-loathing. Once, when frustrated because I keep making typos in an email letter, I grabbed the TV remote and hit myself on the cheek several times. The hard blows resulted in a terrific bruise and I would look in the mirror and think "you deserve it, you creep." In a depression such as this, you are absolutely convinced you are a creep and worthless.

A "normal" depression of course occurs as a result of life's slings and arrows such as a death, a love affair gone sour, economic setbacks, etc. Time is often the great healer for such tragedies. Oddly, right now I am in a situation so potentially dangerous that most normal people would be depressed: I lost half my money on the stock market and my internet business collapsed. Overnight I went from a decent income to virtual poverty, I lost my car and have had to file for bankruptcy, which is in the works as I write. Perhaps I might have even committed suicide, and spent several hours on the internet trying to see if I could get ahold of cyanide pellets. I thought of Sylvia Plath sticking her head in the oven, and wondered whether my oven would do the trick. (I paid close attention to the writings of Sylvia, because she was a fellow alumna, aside from her being a genius.).

At this point, while facing utter financial ruin, although I had heard of SAM-e, I had not tried it because of its expense, I bought a box of Nature Made SAM-e at 200 mg per pill. I selected this brand because of the Good Housekeeping seal on the front of the package and read that the pills contained the mgs of SAM-e stated, while some other brands contain less or even none. I took two pills with my morning coffee and waited. The next day I woke up and was not hit with the usual horrid wave of depression so pervasive and dense I almost drowned in misery before I even got out of bed. I was almost afraid to think it: SAM-e is going to work! I took two more pills and settled down in front of my computer to think. Faced with financial disaster, which could even result in my being homeless, I realized that worrying and agonizing would not cure the situation nor add one hour to my life. As an old lady of 74, I know I am hardly a marketable person as far as jobs go, so I researched the US-based version of the Peace Corps, Americorps, and found the locations in my city for several federally finded programs. These pay $5.00 an hour, but I am not in a position to feel I am worth much more because no old person would not considered for most jobs. And I figure to myself, maybe if you give an under-achieving kid a leg up, you'll forget all about the humble pay. My application is in the works as I write, and I am sure I will be chosen. The upstart is, faced with disaster, I can cope. SAM-e does not give you a false sense of security such as alcohol or other stimulants. It is not putting a candy coating around a pill. You see no longer through a glass darkly but face to face with the realities in your life. You are not on a high, you are on a level playing field

You've read many anecdotal stories, I am sure, about SAM-e and many other supplements. and of course, one has to take these effusions with a grain of salt, mine included. SAM-e, as stated on the package, helps arthritis and liver functions as well as acting as an antipressant. I cannot vouch for
the arthritis and the liver functions, it is just too soon, I have been on the pills for five days. But I can vouch for the antidepressant quality of this amazing supplement. It has turned my life around. Do try it. Don't suffer, when there is hope. And by all means run "SAM-e" through Google to learn of the research on this invaluable compound, s-adenosyl methionine, which is vital to every cell in your body, but some bodies, like mine don't apparently make enough.

Godspeed, and good luck!

This review is from: Nature Made SAM-e Mood Plus 200mg, (20 + 10 Free Enteric Coated Tablets) (Health and Beauty)

I began taking SAM-e a year after being diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. Doctor's tried me on various low dose anti-depressants for pain, but the side effects were worse than the ailments they were prescribed for. I've been taking SAM-e every day since 1998. I do have some Fibro episodes, but the durations are few and far between. I went from being unable to get out of bed to driving 120 miles round-trip per day to attend school, then driving 130 miles round-trip to work full-time. I am still a full-time employee, much closer to home, and have been able to participate in activities with my family. SAM-e has been a tremendous help, it would be even better if my insurance paid for it.

I got to where i couldn't even get up in the morning 'cause my joints hurt so bad. I heard of this product on the Discovery Channel and thought i'd give it a try, what did i have to loose. I now swear by it!!! It's a miracle supplement. I can now move freely without pain and it also regulates my mood swings..It's incredible.
