SAMe (s-adenosylmethionine) "I like SAMe it keeps my mood even and I have arthritis and anxiety. Have had pain remission ever since starting SAMe over 8 months ago. I take it with Super B Complex which is recommended to keep homocysteine levels even . It works great as a mood elevator. Love it"

"Used 1200mg a day for a month. Had wild dreams starting week three. No noticeable arthritis relief. Reduced to 400mg after week four. Still very bad dreams and no arthritis help. Stopped after six weeks."

"During my treatment of depression and RA--it seemed all the medicines stopped working at the same time. I was taking Cymbalta. I tapered off of it and tried Pristiq which worked horribly. I stopped taking them all and researched natural remedies for depression--came across lithium orotate and SAMe. I have been taking both for a couple of months now--seems to keep me level and out of the depressed state that I was in, so for now it seems to be working."

"I am a 75-year-old active woman. My doctor recommended I take 400 mg of SAMe daily for hip and leg pain. I have been taking it for 3 months, and it has worked wonders for me. I have very little pain now when I take my daily walks or garden, and I seem to have more energy. I don't have side effects from it, which I had when I took OTC pain medications, such as bad dreams and stomach upset."

"I have never been blown away by a natural supplement like Sam-e. A year after major back surgery and a hip replacement, I was in more pain than before the surgeries.. chronic.. debilitating pain. I researched sam-e and decided to try it. Started with two 400 mg tablets a day and after a week, I felt like my pain was decreasing. I increased to three tablets a day and it's now been a month.. and I'm a new man. Sam-e is remarkable. It not only works for joint pain, but also overall muscle and body pain.. my mobility is returning to normal... a fabulous supplement :)"
