> Can one combine dlpa, tyrosine, sam-e,DHEA, & wellbutrin taken with some vitamin C and B's? I kind of like to take the non-prescriptions in the a.m. and then the Wellbutrin (150 XR) around mid-morning. I am told to go up to 300 on the Wellbutrin XR, but not real interested in that. I am all for staying away from the SSRI's if possible cuz I hate the side-effects for me.
James here...
DHEA is an adrenal precursor steroid which is tansformed into androgens and/or estrogens and some other stuff. It is a master precursor that is unique in that there is not a feedback loop to stop production of androgens and/or estrogens as you take DHEA. To me this spell trouble, it is best to to play around with androgens and/or estrogens at home ! Cancer is the ovious troblem.
I'm saving DHEA for when I am older and can document with tests decicencies and moniter levels as I take DHEA. I would not consider taking DHEA at any time w/o tests.Otherwise there is not a problem with your combo, I would sugest 1) use "Mental Edge" product which will have the animos you want, mins, lots of B complex, coline, and more. This would combine everything you want, and more in one pill. Do a web search on "Mental Edge" , better pill stores have it. GNC has it in some locals.
2) Take in C as 100 % Orange juice, so you get the very important bio flavinoids with the C. We are now understanding the need to take C with the BF's to make C effective.
3) Take ginko.
4) With the Sam-e start low in dose and go slowly, I really don't know a lot about Sam-e, but you have to consider that ypu are adding an AD to an AD.
