> mr.scottI found SAMe to be somewhat helpful. I've talked to people who have done very well with it, and I've also heard from people who didn't get much benefit from it. I think the only way to tell is to try it and see.
Side effects for me were mild and consisted of passing smelly and volumous gas, and a tad bit of insomnia. I could tell it was helping me, but not enough to commit to it longer term. I figured anything that expensive better work pretty darn good. For some people it does.
Like everything else, only a personal trial will provide answers.
