question about suplements (w/response)

[Guest guest]

<<,

(Here is Giovanna from Brazil. We did an one hour consultation by the phone on a

sunday about 3 months ago...)

I´m seeing a new doctor now and he´s helping me with the formulas to taper the

drugs.

He is a cardiologist and orthomolecular.

My old doctor was to expensive and I can´t afford him any longer.

The new one gave me 2 sets of supplements and I want to know what you think.

I am now on 90mg of Wellbutrim (was on 150mg at the beginning), plus 18mg

Fluoxetine and 300mg Lithium.

I was not able to buy the hemp protein, because they don´t aloud this to come

into Brazil... So I would like to know if I should consider Whey protein

(There´s a brand called ISOPURE that seems to be very good... really pure whey).

Here are the supplements:

Magnésio

Quelato

200

Zinco

35g

Cálcio Quelato

500 mg

Acido

Ascorbico

3g

B9 (acido

fólico)

5 mg

B12

1mg

D2

200IU

B2

50 mg

inositol

400

PABA

50 mg

Piridoxima

200>>

** These are fine except D3 is more appropriate than D2. I will need to

know what is in the ISOPURE.

 

And the other is:

L-Tirosina

200

L-Taurina

200

L-Fenilalanina

200

L-Theanine

50

Glutamina

200

5HTP

** You shouldn't take the 5HTP. It is not good for anyone but especially

not for people who have taken antidepressants.

You may find that the tyrosine is too stimulating.

<<I also take 1g of Omega3. Sometimes I take 600mg of Magnesium...

This last one is making me sick I guess. I took it for about 2 or 3 days and I

think that the 5HTP is the one making me sick....>>

** Take the magnesium in 200 mg doses 3x a day. I highly recommend finding a

way to take it. Try another form if necessary.

<<The doctor wants to prescribe me some serun by via intra venous and some shots

(this would be vitamins and aminoacids), he´s just waiting for a result of a

exame to decide witch... What do you think?>>

** I would have to see what nutrients. Do not do B12.

<<I guess today the worst symptom I feel is a huge fatigue, huge, enourmous... I

am tired ALL the time and sometimes I have tremors and headaches... but feeling

tired all the time is hateful.

I am even with a medical license from my job.

My mind and spirit on the other hand are just fine.

I appretiate your help ...

Tks so much

kisses

** Unfortunately, this is the nature of taking these drugs.
