JANE KELLEY was thinking about St. John's Wort and keyed into 
cyberspace:
JK>MP>The three-year study will involve 336 patients with major
JK>MP>depression, of whom one-third will receive a 900 milligram (mg)
JK>MP>daily dose of St. John's wort, one-third will receive a placebo,
JK>MP>and one-third will receive a selective serotonin reuptake
JK>MP>inhibitor. 
JK>It would make a lot more sense to include a group that receive
JK>tryptophane.  Then a true comparison between the two could be
JK>obtained. 
Wholly irrelevant. The purpose of the study is to compare the effect of 
SJW vs. placebo vs. pharmaceutical of proven track record.
JK>We have folks who are getting results from trypophane and also from
JK>DL-phenylalanine where depression is concerned.
JK>The video "The Addicted Brain" put  out by Films for the Humanities,
JK>Inc. explains this so that most folks understand readily.  It is one
JK>of 13 in a series which explain how the human brain really works.
JK>For more information and where they can be found, call 800/257-5126
JK>or 609/452-1128.
JK>The other videos are:
JK>    Depression: Biology of the Brain    Stres & Immune Function
JK>    Fear Itself                         Suicide Survivors
JK>    Homosexuality: Nature vs. Nurture   Stress Managment
JK>    Memory: Fabric of the Mind          The Sexual Brain
JK>    Dreams: Theater of the Night        Phobias
JK>    Animals: How Smart are They?        The Power of Addiction
Irrelevant to the purpose of the study.
               The Few. The Proud. The Chosen.
