In reply to Has anyone added chromium or passion flower to AD, posted by Jaynee on February 22, 2002, at 17:53:31
I take nutritional yeast flakes that are high in chromium, but not chromium by itself. I find the yeast very helpful but not so much as a medication substitute but as an adjuct to maintain the benefits of an AD.
I have tried passion flower, both as a tincture, from a well-known, respected brand, & as the dried herb that I made a tea from. I think I gave it a pretty fair trial for a long time but noticed nothing, no benefits, from either. I grow catnip for my cats & it really can proliferate. Catnip is also supposed to be very calming & good for sleeping in people too - a safe & trusted herb. I could eat a handful of it & notice nothing from that either (except my cats LOVED my breath).
