Re: stomache problems/ smoking cigarettes

[Guest guest]

Kalli, I'm in Ottawa

Mine came from a compounding pharmacy (Nutrichem) but my DH's came

from whatever HFS I happend to be in that had them. I use NOW brand

tyrosine, Jarrow 5HTP, cysteine and selenium for him. He also takes

a potent Bmulti to get the b6 he needs. Its working just fine for

both of us. In fact, when my bottles of cysreplete and neuroreplete

are done I'm going to use the same stuff he uses, cause it's much

less expensive.
