Lar,
Hot off the Press.....I just received Pfeiffer's modification of my supplement plan. They did the follow-up testing about a month ago and based on those test results, here are their changes for me:
1) Vitamin B-12(Methyl) INcreased from 2,000 mcg to 5,000 mcg SUBLINGUAL (there's a note which says that they want me to consider B-12 injections....don't know if I will due to fact that I'd have to pay for each injection/dr. visit......do you think that the B-12 injections would really be much better than the sublingual form Lar?
2) TMG has been INcreased from 500 mg to 1400 mg a day (700 mg/2x a day)
3) Vitamin B-5 (Pantothenic Acid) has been added....I was wondering why this wasn't in my regimen from the beginning....the 'anti-stress' vitamin.....500 mg a day
4) SAM-e has been suggested (it says "if helpful") 200-400 mg/2x a day (Total of 400-800 mg/day).....I think I'm going to try SJW instead though (Pfeiffer recc'd SAM-e because they think I'm still on an ssri....since I'm NOT, I'll try SJW instead)
5)Zinc Picolinate has been INcreased from 85 mg to 165 mg (despite taking 85 mg of Zinc for 7 months, my Zinc level FELL from a 96 to a 91 (per Pfeiffer's lab scale)! They say they want my Zinc between 105-130....my ratio of zinc:copper has improved though
6) Methionine INcreased from 2,000 mg to 2,500 mg/day
**ALL other supp's remained the same.........I'll follow this plan and in time I'll see if I can "Feel" a difference....any thoughts compadres?
