Turmeric (-Linkadge)

Linkadge, whatever happened to your trial of Turmeric (since it has been shown to be an inhibitor of MAO-A)? How did it work for you and what not?

It was quite possibly the best antidepressant I have ever tried. I had to consume nearly a cup of the stuff a day (still cheap though), to get the same level as used in the studies. I just consumed a small portion each our in water.

The problem was that it seemed the potency was very varyable. One day would seem to be a real power boost and the next day very little. I was using bulk turmeric not the standardized extracts.


This could be the depression, but If I was to try it again, I would need to find a supply of pharmacudical turmeric.

It really pisses me off when the best antidepressants are right infront of us, but the drug companies won't bother trying to research it.

Sorry to interrupt, but I'd like to redirect this thread to Psycho-Babble Alternative. Here's a link:
