In reply to i did the test and now have the supps recommended » barbaracat, posted by joebob on April 12, 2005, at 18:18:02
Dear JoeBob,
Thanks so much for replying. I'm really interested in hearing from people who have taken these tests to measure neurotransmitters.I don't doubt that amino acid therapy would help although I have doubts about taking single aminos without balancing them out. My question lies more with, are these tests really measuring something useful? Since the whole body runs on neurotransmitters, how can these tests be specific? It seems there are a number of these urine tests popping up over the internet. Most docs I've talked to about them just roll their eyes - which doesn't mean anything, but I can't find much on the methods they're using to isolate anything definitive.
