5.0 out of 5 stars Works Well but Has Misconceptions, September 30, 2009

Sam-E has worked well for me, after I knew how to take it properly that is. I took it for about 2 weeks before I actually did some reading about it and knew I was doing many things wrong. Including making the wrong purchase. Any brand will probably do, (as long as it is made properly, see #2 below) but I have found Nature Made to be the best selection when it came to purchasing Sam-E. (Yes, I have actually bought and tried the 200mg tablets) No matter what brand you buy, you have to give it TIME to work. 7-10 days is the timeframe that it will typically start to work in, but I have heard of occasions where it has taken longer. After 12 days if you have seen no positive change in mood, up the dose. Eventually, work your way up to taking 1200mg of Sam-E daily for best results.

Stomach Cramps and even the possibility of ulcers be a serious problem for people taking Sam-E. I have compiled a list of precautions and things you can do to prevent this:

1) Make sure you take this product on an EMPTY STOMACH. An empty stomach means not having eaten anything for roughly an hour. The best time to take this is in the morning, right after waking up. Finally, make sure you do not eat for at least 30 MINUTES after taking Sam-e. More time may be required as you take more of the supplement.

2) Do NOT purchase Sam-E tablets that are not enteric coated and are not in a box/blister wrap. The Entric coating prevents the pills from being absorbed by your body until they reach the lower intestine which will prevent a majority of stomach cramps and stomach pains. Not only this, but it will prevent the Sam-E from being dissolved in the stomach which renders it virtually useless.

Also, On a lot of the "Product Ads from External Websites," I have seen a lot of retailers trying to hawk Sam-E in bottles...NOT ok! It is a BIG mistake to buy Sam-E in bottles, I won't get onto it here but you can google it and you will see why. It must be blister wrapped for ultimate freshness!

I hope I have been of assistance, if taken right you will see a dramatic positive change in your mood!

I was a little doubtful about taking this supplement, but I have been suffering from mild depression and sleeplessness and didn't want to start on a prescription antidepressant. After a week of taking this product, I found that I was handling stess much better than usual. I encountered an extremely difficult situation in my personal life and found that I did not "go to pieces," but handled it in a calm and confident manner. I didn't even cry (which would normally have been my first response). I am also sleeping better and feeling more rested. I plan to continue taking this supplement.

5.0 out of 5 stars The better brand for this, I believe, November 6, 2008

This review is from: Nature Made SAM-e Complete 200 mg - 90 Enteric Coated Tablets (Health and Beauty)

I gave SAM-e a try, and bought this Nature Made Complete brand (200 mg). I noticed a positive difference in my mood and energy level. I don't mean that I felt an overwhelming since of euphoria or anything like that...at least that wasn't the case from my experience. The difference was subtle, yet noticiable. I didn't tell my wife I had started taking it, yet she also noticed the difference. I decided to keep taking it, and switched over to Source Naturals, a slightly less expensive option at the time.

I do believe there is a difference in what you get. I have noticed no benefit at all from the Source Naturals brand. I'll continue to take it since I paid for it, but I wish I had stayed with Nature Made and will switch back over to them once these are gone. (no, I do not work for Nature Made!)
