Depression: Nutritional Supplement May Ease Depression
According to a conclusion of a Massachusetts General Hospital
research, nutritional supplement may help to ease depression
along with common antidepressants in depressed patients who
haven't responded to single-drug treatment.
Under the findings of the study, a new treatment based in
nutritional supplement SAMe and an antidepressant improved or
relieved symptoms in most of patients that suffer from
depression. Researchers explain that there is a substance called
SAMe (S-Adenosy-L-Methionine), which is found in every human
cell and is commonly used as a dietary supplement.
This substance was used in 30 people included in the study. They
were depressed patients diagnosed with different antidepressants
such as Prozac, Effexor and Paxil for their treatments for a
six-week period.
A total of 50 per cent of patients had significant improvement
in their symptoms and 43 per cent had complete remission of
their depression at the end of the study.
Patients started by taking 400 milligrams of the SAMe substance
two times a day. Then, after two weeks, the dose of SAMe was
doubled to 800 milligrams two times a day.
Although researchers noted that the study had different
limitations, results were really interesting, since it was a
small research and it lacked from a control group, besides that
the subjects knew that
they were taking an active dose of SAMe.
It is important to note that the only way that Science can
obtain knowledge about the world, diseases such as depression
and on facts that can be proved has been especially examination
and testing. Hence the importance of studies like the above
mentioned.
