I took it for two months after being diagnosed as BP this past June. It really made a difference with my mood but wrecked my body. I swelled all over, I would get overheated and then the final straw is that it started affecting my thyroid (already have Hashimoto's). I had to be take off of it. I really didn't want to be but it is what it is. BTW, I also gained 15 pounds on it in two months. If it works for you and you have no physical side effects, you are very lucky!
