> Maybe you should read up on nutritional supplements, as in a number of other threads at this time. It makes me think of something I heard from a nutritionist once (airplane conversation) about the difference between beta-carotene and vitamin A -- something along the lines of (1) at high dosages, the former does cause the toxicity that the latter does, and (2) that beta-carotene is more effective at treating vitamin A deficiencies. So, maybe the other supplements that are pre-cursors to what our body and brain really needs fit in the same sort of category -- keeping the "raw materials" needed to produce neurotransmitters in ample supply but not flooding our system with "too much of a good thing."
