SAMe for Depression, Stress Management, Grief, Trauma, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Combat Disorder

Looking to improve mood naturally? Feeling despondent? Are you in therapy, counselling and looking for a solution to help you reach the other side, stronger physically, emotionally and mentally?

SAMe (S-Adenosyl-L-Methionine) the natural mood lifter; I am a fan of SAMe in clinical practice with mild, moderate depressive symptoms and diagnoses. I wanted to discuss its prescription in a little more detail in the interest of practitioner and patient awareness. Of note, I utilise SAMe in mild to moderate depressive cases, however it has been tested against far more serious disorders. In one of several small U.S. studies, researchers at the University of California, 17 severely depressed patients were given a four-week course of SAMe (1,600 mg daily) or desipramine, a well-established antidepressant. The SAMe recipients enjoyed a slightly higher response rate (62 percent) than the folks on desipramine (50 percent).

Let me break it down for you in laymans terms.

My suggestion for prescribing SAMe; you really need to monitor dosage as the correct dosage differs for everyone, do not simply accept the manufacturers recommended dosage. Through research papers and clinic observation I have found that those prescribed a practitioner quality tablet- generally 400mg is far too much, and loads the body unnecessarily. Side effects of loaded dose can result in one feeling anxious, digestive disturbances and headaches. I recommend, chopping, biting the tablet to a 50mg dose take every Second day for a week and monitor for difference in mood, should be felt relatively quickly 24-48hrs. (taking it every 2nd day gives the patient an opportunity to monitor if it’s been effective and if side effects are present, not just synomonous with a coincidence of headache eg from dehydration,also means a slower build up into mood lifting benefit)

Whereas, tryptophan powder (also fantastic, highly recommend v.effective in all my clinic practice) however you are looking at a 14 day loading period for effect, again monitor dosage. In my clinic practice I have found tryptophan powder (converts to happy hormone serotonin instead of using SSRI’s and MAOI’s) to be extremely beneficial in those with mild to moderate depression, especially when experiencing loss. Very small dose eg ¼ tsp with water or juice in morning, dosage must not be missed. Remember SAMe has a load effect and lasts in the body much longer than tryptophan . Those with sensitive digestive systems seem to need very little SAMe.

After a week depending on feedback, the practitioner can increase the dosage by 50mg until desired effect is reached, wait a week before increasing as I am highlighting that there seems to be a loading effect with SAMe. You can reach up to 800mg-1600mg, however I have found that no more than 200mg has been needed and that was only utilised in a severe depressive case, obesity was an issue, long term sexual abuse had been an issue, they were under mental health care. I believe absorption may’ve played a factor in why higher dosage was needed, due to obesity related issues. At 300-400mg, headache and digestive issues were apparent, 200mg was enough to improve mood, increase motivation and respond to mental and physical health program.

There is little question that SAMe can help fight depression. Since the 1970s, researchers have published 40 clinical studies involving roughly 1,400 patients. And though the studies are small by FDA standards, the findings are remarkably consistent. In 1994 Dr. Giorgio Bressa, a psychiatrist at the University Cattolica Sacro Cuore in Rome, pooled results from a dozen controlled trials and found that "the efficacy of SAMe in treating depressive syndromes... is superior [to] that of placebo and comparable to that of standard... antidepressants

SAMe is a natural compound that functions as a methyl donor to many neurotransmitters such as norepinephrine, dopamine proteins, and lipids involved in depression. It appears to have a faster onset than traditional antidepressants - which often take two weeks or more to work

SAMe has many other benefits supporting hepatic liver health and as a natural anti inflammatory. In a dozen clinical trials involving more than 22,000 patients, researchers have found SAMe as effective as pharmaceutical treatments for pain and inflammation. But unlike the NSAIDs, SAMe shows no sign of damaging the digestive tract. And instead of speeding the breakdown of cartilage, SAMe may help restore it. Unlike traditional drugs such as voltaren, ibuprofen, known to hinder GIT digestive health and actually breakdown collagen production long term. SAMe also has that double effect of lifting the mood of those in pain from injury to aid emotional and mental recovery.

CONTRAINDICATIONS; BIPOLAR, it may trigger manic episodes in people with bipolar disorder. I would not recommend it to those that are overly anxious or hyper manic. It works really well in those lacking motivation from depressive symptoms. Aside from that, the most serious side effect is a mild stomach upset, slight headaches. I’ve found that those with digestive disorders tend to have a reaction to SAMe and need lower dosage or perhaps utilise tryptophan powder in its place. For those GIT sensitivities please start off with a much lower 50mg dose every second day, discomfort is not pleasant whether natural medication or pharmaceutical medication.

There are many options to complement mental health care practices. Mood foods, amino acids, serotonin convertors found in clinical nutrition are one of many weapons in are arsenal against depressive symptoms. Practitioners and patients please note, Store it in the fridge highly sensitive to temperature change. Also recommend taking it in the morning with breakfast as it improves, alertness, focus, mood quiet rapidly. You do not want this type effect when you are about to go to sleep.

SAMe is Not to be used without health practitioner consultation and preferable in conjunction with allied mental health care.

5 Tips Healthy Relationships

I came across an article on healthy relationships and thought it imperative that I share. Quick 5 top tips from psychologist Jo Lamble, that I had to expand on a little, hope it shines a light on the connections in your life.

Show Empathy
The article began by stating if there was only one rule this would be it. Add a pinch of empathy to every conversation and watch how much closer you feel. Empathy means imagining what its like to be in the other person given their personality and their situation. Without empathy you won’t feel heard or understood

Don’t Avoid Difficult Conversations
The psychologist observed the tragedy in divorces, where couples admit they hadn’t been happy for years but hadn’t spoken up. It’s better to have the conversation before resentment builds up and erodes love all together. Quiet often I’ve heard men say they thought everything was fine in the relationship, they had no idea something was amiss. Please bring voice to your issues, giving the partnership a chance to truly work before finate decisions are made.

Intimacy Means Sharing
Sexual intimacy is just one form of sharing your deepest thoughts. When you receive good or bad news tell your partner first. Emotional intimacy is closely linked to physical intimacy.

Treat Eachother As The Most Important Guest In The House
I think this could be a critical key to a healthy long term relationship. I think most women would welcome this understanding from their primary partnership, and men would benefit from practicing the gesture & vice versa, guarantee it will make a shift to your relationship. Too many of us treat our friends better than we treat our partners. Treat your partner with respect and watch it come flowing back to you. The psychologist spoke of receiving this advice from an elderly couple, she’s integrated it into her workshops ever since.

Give Eachother Space
Many struggle to find couple time, but while time together is essential, so is time apart. I often get asked the question how do I handle a relationship with someone that can be gone for weeks, months on end? I always find it a bit of a puzzling question, as I cannot see how people can be constantly entwined for ever and a day for ever more, I cherish the time apart as much as I cherish the time together. Every minute with a partner whilst not at work will create burn out. Not to mention devoid of spark, mystery. One of the biggest issues my friends and I have been talking about lately, is the essentialness of not being constantly available to your primary partner. Sometimes it might not be the best thing to drop everything at the drop of a hat just because your partner is home, don’t reserve every weekend just for eachother. Keep up your dates with girlfriends and mates, go out without them, you are after all a social human that needs varied contact with people for emotional growth, plus it gives partner more time to miss you. Who knows they may think more about the relationship, perhaps plan date nights and time alone with you. Too many partners have told me simply being home with their partner sitting on the couch, passing eachother in the corridor is quality time...is it? Sure it can be nice but is it really a connection? Equal balance of time together and time apart is healthy.

Festive Health Treats

Festive SuperFoods

Celebrations should be about sharing laughter, love and safe tasty food with loved ones. Science is showing us that epigenetic influences such as dietary intake and exposure changes gene expression. Exposing the body to artificial foods, chemicals, rush of constant processed sugars have a very real impact on cellular health and gene expression. 

Exposing growing bodies to influx of processed, artificial, chemical laden foods is of concern. Healthy food need not be bland food, just need a little know how in utilising natural sweeteners full of minerals and vitamins as opposed to processed sugar

Children’s parties, indulgent snacks need not be laden with chemicals, processed sugars, artificial flavours and colours reminiscent more of a chemical laboratory, treat your loved ones with REAL wholefood. Your taste buds and cellular health will thank you

 

Real chocolate Icing:

Fill one bowl ¼ full of warm to hot water, place second smaller bowl on top of warm water, add the following;

• 2 tbsp Raw cacao powder (more if desired)
• Mix Organic maple syrup to desired taste (approx 1.5tbsp add more to taste)
• 1 tbsp Organic Coconut oil mix until desired consistency (run jar under warm tap till liquid)

Stir until powder disappears into a thick, shining, naturally sweet icing spread

 

Best indulgence: Serve whilst muffins are just out of the oven, let cool for 5-10min, add thick Real chocolate icing, it will stay on top. If left over Store in fridge, before serving again 20sec in microwave.

 

Mix the following in big bowl

• ¼ cup Soak goji berries in ½ cup filtered water- it softens the goji to a beautiful texture and produces a naturally sweetened water to use in recipe, leave to steep for 20-30min
• 2 cups Gluten Free Self Raising Flour or Coconut Flour
• ¼ tsp Bicarb Soda
• ¼ cup shredded coconut
• 1 whole egg 2 egg white
• 3 tbsp Carotino Oil or Macadamia oil- High Mono and Polyunsaturated Fats.
• 1 Tsp Ground cinnamon (make sure no sugar added into your cinnamon source)
• 1 Tbsp broken up walnuts
• 2 scoops of Raw Sunwarrior Protein Powder
• Organic Maple Syrup: Now add the natural sweeteners tailored to your taste buds, I recommend Organic Maple syrup about 2 tbsp, stir in and taste the batter, can add dash of Apple Juice concentrate syrup, and add or keep as is, to your taste bud satisfaction.  Add the natural sweeteners after the goji berries/goji berry water as this also adds to the natural sweetness.
• Stir till desired consistency, thick, silky, slightly bumpy, can add water, more oil as needed. Put mixture in muffin trays and place in the oven 200 degree's 10-15min check until cooked through

Gluten Free Superfood Muffins
High in Protein
#vegetarians #antioxidants #muscletone #fibre #goodfats #glutenfree #noprocessedsugar #nodairy

Each day we wake and have two choices, to create health or create disease states in our body, each habit, each bite, each thought, each action has a cumulative effect on our health and wellbeing.
Having regular protein, high fibre, phytonutrient rich small snacks throughout the day help you achieve a healthier body as well as entice and satisfy the taste buds.

First thing I want you to do whilst preparing true soul food, is to cook with Compassion and Creativity. Please put on your favourite music and create a dish that celebrates life, let yourself go, move, enjoy your creation. This is a dish to celebrate YOU " Self compassion is treating yourself like a friend or a loved one with care and concern,” says Jean Fain and when you treat yourself compassionately you are more apt to eat when you are hungry and stop when you're full. Move when you're energized and rest when you're tired”

All natural cues to weight management, satiety and an increase in body mind awareness. Its a great gift to your family and friends to offer them tasty healthy food made with compassion with real heart and soul.

‘In The Mood’ Foods- is there a scientific formula?

In the search for passion, love and romance, the saying “the way to a lovers heart is through their stomach” is not so farfetched… is there really a food science formula behind ‘passion ignition’?
There are indeed certain aphrodisiac foods that science has advocated play a role in stimulating an increase in 1.Libido 2.Potency and 3.Sexual pleasure

Food sexual enhancers or ‘passion igniters’ play a role on our venous system (circulation), supplying vital nutrients to support endocrine system and fertility. They also play a role in stimulating a pheromone response in the opposite sex.

The ingredients for my Warm Naked Chocolate Sauce w/ Wild Fig & Strawberries 2011© is made from a complex compound of mood enhancing constituents. A Valentines day ‘In The Mood’ formula.

Cacao is full of antioxidants has often been likened to the food of the Gods, it was at one time valued as more valuable than gold, the great Inca and Peruvian tribes held it in favour above all other elements. Cacao stimulates endorphins, raises serotonin in the brain (happy hormone) Most importantly it stimulates phenylethylamine also created within the brain and released when we are in Love, it also aids an increase in focus and alertness, perfect for a romantic interlude.

Cacao contains N-acylethanolamines, believed to temporarily increase the levels of anandamide in the brain, promoting relaxation, and helps us feel good longer. Raw Cacao beans are rich in a number of essential minerals, including magnesium, sulfur, calcium, iron, zinc, copper, potassium and manganese required for healthy sexual and reproductive health.

Figs are believed to enhance sexual stamina and the colour red from strawberries are synomous with love and passion, feeding the visual brain. Strawberries not only offer that vibrant contrast of passion red, they also provide a big hit of Vitamin C pivotel for sperm mobility and motility.

Add an extract of nutmeg, recently proven to enhance both libido and potency with a scoop Maca powder, an endocrine system adaptagen and you have a potent formula for ‘passion ignition’. Maca powder has been likened to herbal Viagra, other studies have shown increased maturation of egg follicles in women and greater sperm numbers and motility in men. Clinic feedback has confirmed not only enhancement in libido but also in sexual pleasure.

For the main dish:
Celery, Avocado & Ginger Puree w/ Baked Salmon
Let’s talk about the unheralded celery. Androsterone is a male pheromone regularly released in male sweat, some studies suggest it has an effect of increasing female sexual desire. Interestingly, this male pheromone is also a constituent of celery. It has been speculated that for this reason, men who eat large amounts of celery would secrete more androsterone, and therefore be more irresistible to women. Other studies have also shown that when men smell celery on its own, they inturn have an increase in libido, so ladies leave that fresh celery lying around and men start eating more celery!

Avocado has many minerals including EFA (essential fatty acids)imperative for sexual organ function, along with folate and B6 needed for testosterone conversion. Combine it with ginger a circulatory stimulant and you will have a healthy increase of blood flow, hopefully to the brain and (cough) the other brain for men : )

Seafood, particular oysters have been labelled as aphrodisiacs the truth is there are no studies that attribute a marked increase in libido, potency or sexual enhancement. However, seafoods do contain proteins, amino acids as well as minerals and omega 3 needed for healthy fertility and they are also imperative for Mood Elevation. Particuliar the amino acid L-Tryptophan which converts into serotonin the ‘happy hormone’

To boost serotonin levels, note that one needs to have a carbohydrate within an hour of eating the amino acids. Carbohydrates trigger the release of insulin into the blood stream, which clears all the amino acids from the blood, except tryptophan. When competitors are out of the way, the tryptophan floods the brain, where it's converted to serotonin. Higher serotonin levels are elevated when people use prohibited recreational drugs such as ecstacy, having a little mood foods is a much safer, real and pleasurable experience.

Many studies have highlighted the healthy benefits of sex, benefits to the immune system, stress hormones, sex hormones, cardio vascular system, seem to be heightened in a ‘loving’ union. All that is left is to choose is in what order you wish dessert or mains to be..... a decision that is entirely up to the formula and chemistry of the loving couple ~*~
