"nutriceuticals" Yes, I know what you mean about vetting them. One good source is the German. In Germany the doctors use herbs etc or nutriceuticals all the time and they have done the most testing on them. I wish I could recall the name of the Ph. D. that used to write articles in 'Prevention' magazine about 15 years ago who quoted from German resources.

One of the things I remember that the DO I worked for used to take a lot was a combinaton of zinc and copper to help her with her depression. Along with physical activity and natural sun light. For the anxiety and sleep problems, hum????

I'll do a search and see if I can find the name of the doctor and the actual name of the German resource for you.

Good luck.
