> These are great suggestions. I just started using NADH a week ago, and have found it works very well for me (a definite and real improvement in energy levels and motivation). I also added DMAE (250 mg) and, three days ago, started using Rhodiola. In addition, a few weeks ago, I had added Vitex (Chasteberry) mostly for hormonal balancing and PMS. Questions for you. What would be your opinion on my adding about 100 - 200 mg of DMG to take with the NADH in the morning as well as adding a dose of Acetyl L-Carnitine at perhaps noon? I was under the impression that DMAE and Acetyl L-Carnitine did almost the same thing. Would it be overkill to take both at the same time? Have you ever tried Pregnenolone? I was wondering if it might be a more multi-purpose supplement compared to the DHEA?

I can't give any recommendations on the DMG... I've tried TMG which is almost the same but I would ask Larry Hoover for advice on it. I don't think it would be any problem adding it to your lineup though. I'm not sure whether Pregnenolene of DHEA is superior. Pregnenolene may be better for memory. If you have the money I would get 7-keto DHEA though. You may want to take week long breaks with it every once in awhile too.> > I thought I'd offer up some suggestions for fatigue(non-prescription). Before I do though... don't they have Milnacipran(Ixel) in the UK? Couldn't you give that a try?

You have to experiment around with the dosage of it because a low dose can be better than a high dose or vice-versa depending on the person. Aniracetam can be helpful for Social Anxiety(check out the first link below). I added a couple more informative links below also.
