Review: Information in this book saved my life, literally. - In March of 2008 I had to let my insurance go. I am self employed and the cost had skyrocketed. As I knew the end was coming I tried to prepare by reading about and using holistic treatments as opposed to the five prescriptions that I was going to have to do without. I was diagnosed as severely clinically depressed in the late '90s. The very first prescription that I was ever given was one for 60mg., yes 60mg, of Prozac. The doctor(s) wanted to hospitalize me but I refused, opting instead to see the psychiatrist every other day....the first week was every day. I managed to get through this first year without killing myself and it is all just a blur. There were side effects to the drug that they "treated" with more drugs. I gained weight, lost weight, slept for 8 months, went through my entire life savings, etc., etc., you get the picture. I was a total mess. As time progressed I noticed that the drugs stopped working as effectively as they did in the beginning so I'd get switched.... I have it all written down somewhere but I think the last prescriptions I filled were for Wellbutrin & Zanyx.... plus sleeping pills.... I can not recall all of their names right now....I think I've blocked them out at this point because I simply do not need them or take them any longer.... and I feel SO SO SO much better than I ever did while on the drugs. Seriously, a million times better. I still have days that aren't pretty, just like I imagine everyone does, but I can manage those days by taking an extra dose of SAM-e or one extra tablet of 500mg. L-Tryptophan at night. Another reviewer states it correctly here, this is not an overnight cure. However there are amino acids that even I felt better within one hour of taking them even while still a complete mess. I got The Mood Cure and The Diet Cure by Julia Ross and they both are invaluable to me. I learned so much from them about how things work in our bodies and what the cause and effect of what we put into our bodies is and what is happening when we are depressed or even when you have overwhelming urges to eat something like chocolate or carbs..... migraine headaches (which I have had) can be managed with the right combination of these amino acids, vitamins & minerals. I have never been anorexic or bulimic but those are also addressed and treatable in these books. Weight gain, weight loss, adrenal gland failure....it is all in these books. All completely treatable with the holistic means she tells you about in these books. Dr. Ross spells it out beautifully in these books. You can see yourself and read about exactly what has happened to you right in these pages. It is such a wonderful experience to know that you can get better. I did. I promise you can as well. She is honest and says that she can not treat two things by holistic means alone, those are bi-polar disease and schizophrenia which Dr. Ross says must be treated by prescription medicine but can be greatly helped with holistic treatments in conjunction. With those two aside you can figure out how to treat your severe clinical depression like I did with a trial and error approach to the suggestions she makes in the books. By the way, I really want to emphasize how important it is for you to take it extremely seriously how careful you are to get off of your prescription meds before you jump into "straight" holistics!! You could really crash and do serious harm to your psyche and also to your physical body if you are not careful. This is how I did it: I stayed on the meds while I learned to incorporate the aminos, etc. I would take a whole dose one day, 1/2 the next...I did this for one whole month. The second month I would do two days of 1/2 doses, then one whole....it took me several months, maybe 4, to completely get off of the prescription meds so please please be careful. You can have a severe set back if you just stop or stop too soon. With that said I also incorporated the aminos into my day as I was weening off the scrips. One of the great things about natural treatments like amino acids is that once your body has been refueled and doesn't need any more, say 5-HTP, or L-tryptophan, then you will get a MILD headache so you'll know you don't need that any more. But keep it, because if you have a bad life experience (like a mate dying or a family member, etc.) then you can understandably need to use them again until your supply is built back up. It took me until now from a start in March of '08, so 2.5 years, to be completely certain that I no longer need to take any of them! I still take a small (for me) dose of 500mg L-Tryptophan at night and occasionally I'll take a 200mg of SAM-e in the a.m. but for the most part I am strictly maintenance now....but the first year I was taking 6000mg, yes, six thousand mgs per day of L-Tryptophan, high grade pharm powder, plus L-tyrosine, and a few others. I feel that my adrenal gland was just completely shot and I know I was right because I am the living proof of it now. You will FEEL what is right for you as you try different suggested things in the book. Complete relief does not happen over night but enough relief to function can come within an hour of taking the right amino, just as they tell you in the book. I've waited this long to review the books because I wanted to really get to the point where I feel "cured" and I do. I feel very well. My energy level is good, my moods are mostly even and level headed, I sleep very well and I have an appetite for wonderful healthy foods. The only other thing I can tell you that I have used to get where I am now is Weston A. Price Foundation (WAPF) and their opinions on whole foods & cod liver oil....invaluable. Also, they are big believers in all organic, including meat, and raw organic dairy. Which I also advocate. So, good luck. My very best wishes for your improved health and happy life. I know it is possible. I'm living proof.
Review: Best and most effective self-help program - I bought this book over a year ago and immediately started buying supplements to try because based on the questionnaires I needed help in all four areas described in the book. I continue to use some supplements but no longer need others. I had been completely drained by taking care of my mother through her last year of life which was injurious to my mental and physical health. On top of that I had been in constant pain for over 15 years because of a work related repetitive strain injury which caused constant nerve impingement. I could not sleep more than a couple of hours a night, had constantly high anxiety levels and felt depressed much of the time. It never occurred to me to take my complaints to an MD because I did not want to become involved with prescription drugs. The GABA supplement made an immediate reduction in my stress level. I also bought Taurine and Glycine then discovered these three mixed together made the most difference in my mood. You can buy this mixture in a formula called True Calm which also includes some other ingredients. Whenever I felt a bit of over stressed I would have a tape loop in my head repeating the same worries over and over which just increased the stress. A tiny bit of the GABA, Taurine and Glycine mixture would stop this incessant tape loop within minutes. At first I needed this several times a day but now I only take True Calm once in a while if I have trouble getting to sleep because of the repetitive thought patterns. Tryptophan and 5-htp both help me sleep. I found the Tryptophan helped a bit better than 5-htp so use it exclusively. I take it every night and now my husband takes it most nights also. There is no residual drowsiness the next day and it seems to increase the ability to fall asleep and stay asleep all night. In addition to these supplements I tried all the others in the book. There are good instructions for how to take them and when to stop. Eventually I expect to stop taking all of them except perhaps L-Glutamine which is used by body builders for adding muscle. I take L-Glutamine in powdered form in tea as a mild relaxant. It is also supposed to be good for digestion. Julia Ross also recommends taking probiotics for digestion which works well for me. I had chronic constipation for over 15 years because of the physical pain and find probiotics keeps me regular. I have recommended this book to many people. Several people told me they got a lot out of it and recommended it to others.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent book!
*by A***A on March 7, 2016*

Truly truly amazing book. I found this book accidentally after searching for a completely different kind of book in another category. My first impression was that I wouldn't be interested in the book because the name just didn't sound appealing to me and I didn't think it would apply to my life. I was only curious because of all the high reviews that I saw and I wanted to know what specifically this book was about. So I checked out the book and read it, and realized that I need to buy the book to keep for my own records. It really makes you wonder about how the food you eat affects how you act and what triggers you to act certain ways and certain feelings that you have. For example, the author talks about what kind of natural chemicals (amino acids) your body lacks or needs and which consequently affect your mood. Certain kinds of food make you feel happy and content and other ones make you feel sad and depressed. The chemicals in the foods are really what make the difference and if you're lacking in one of these, your body responds accordingly. The author talks about good-mood foods that help you to feel good, sociable, and healthy and about the bad-mood foods that do the opposite. There are some people who are always sociable and friendly and are always in a happy mood and it makes you wonder how they could possibly feel that way all the time. But those kind of people have more levels of the amino acids that help keep them in that mood and they avoid the foods that would counter the good mood feelings. If you eliminate the bad-mood foods from your diet and eat foods that provide you with the specific amino acids that you need, then it will positively improve your mood and level of content. This book is extremely informative and will really make you start thinking and wanting to change the way you eat in order to improve your LIFE. You can tell that Julia Ross really did her research on this and I will always keep this book on my bookshelf. It could probably change your life completely. I showed this book to my brother and he also loved it and started following some of the advice that the author gives. I am so glad that I stumbled upon this book and I really recommend it to everyone I know.
