Looks like your wrote this question one year ago, but figured I'd put out an answer. I was "diagnosed" bipolar about nine years ago and took meds for five years. I was terrifeid to go off the meds. I have been medication free for over four years, thanks to the power of sunlight and NUTRITION. For more info see my website:

I think neuroreplete is extremely powerful and I highly recommend people try it. Of note, you have to not be on your regular pharmaceutical meds. The idea is four amino acids and some cofactors help rebuild neurotransmitters in the brain. I used it when I had Lyme's Disease and couldn't believe how much it helped me with depression. When I healed, I no longer needed it and had no withdrawal symptoms when I stopped. I only took it for 6 months and am by no means an expert, but am offering my opinion here.

Good luck! I recommend it, although it probably would be best if you could find a doctor to follow you with the supplement.

Hi Aliza,

I am also reading your post a year late. You have probably already started on a neuroreplete program and can verify for yourself the efficacy of Amino Acids. I have been bipolar most of if not all my life. I did very well for about five years on various pharmaceuticals and except for the usual side effects and changes associated with taking such powerful drugs I was functioning in life... so to speak.

There were a few remaining symptoms left unchecked by whatever meds I was taking. Cyclical bouts of fibromyalgia, sheer exhaustion every four to six hours, cloudy thinking, sensitivity to temperature changes especially coolness, 2-3 nights of insomnia, various digestion problems, and never really feeling full. Now these are light weight livable symptoms compared to the total dysfunction I would be experiencing if not on four different kinds of prescribed pharmaceuticals to stop me from severely cycling through manic/depressive episodes.

But one magic day my psych doctor came up with this Amino Acid program. I was skeptical and terrified at the idea of coming off my meds being well aware of how dependent I was on them. I thought I could possibly lose my mind, and my business and my husband but mostly just myself. I let her slowly take me down on some of my dosages - then went onto the Aminos.

The first week wasn't too bad but the second week I felt very shaky. Not sure I would be able to hold myself stable. I was very emotional, something the other meds keep in check. And I just wasn't sure if I was feeling right or not. I reported my misgivings to the doc and she made an adjustment.

That did the trick. I take about 14 caps neuroreplete, cysreplete and a couple others. The best thing ever. My whole being has been affected. The best thing is not having to spend energy keeping myself together. I can even go walking out in cold weather and my joints and muscles don't ache. So many things that used to annoy me no longer bother me.

It's been about nine months and I'm now living in the world of it's okay!

My best to all who are seeking.

Hi Aliza, I have been working with NeuroReplete for almost five years. In my search for the alleviation of my own depression, I came across a c NeuroResearch and their line of amino acid products. I was out of my depression in about three weeks. My ADHD symptoms also were gone. I am a psychologist and this program changed the course of my career. I was trained by Marty Hinz,MD and now conduct a practice almost entirely devoted to NeuroReplete. This program aleviates depression symptoms. The challenge for people with a bi-polar issue is the mania. The prescription Lithium has terrible side effects. It is possible to regulate the mania with a non-prescription form of lithium called "lithium orotate". If you work with a health practiononer who has been trained by Dr. Hinz, they can regulate your neurotransmitter levels in about five weeks. Then ask that person to help you regulate the lithium levels to the correct theraputic dose. You will have to remain on this program indefinitely but you will be symptom free.

For a list of practioners, go to neuroassist.com.

Good luck, Ross

I found this site by search of NeuroReplete. I have been recommended by a seemingly knowledgeable and progressive MD to start taking NeuroReplete. Today was my first dosage and considering my past experience with prescription drugs, I only took half dosage (2 pills)

I am cautiously optimistic that this supplement will be of significant benefit. I will update this post regularly.

I have suffered with severe depression and anxiety for about 10 years. I was very, extremely skeptical about Neuroreplete and Cysreplete after having been on a myriad of antidepressant SSRI's. I thought it was just a money making scheme and I was scared.

Let me just say that I'm glad I did my research and I'm glad I tried it because it has made a WORLD OF DIFFERENCE. I had my psychologist ask a phychiatrist about Neuroreplete and he dismissed it which made me even more anxious. These aminos, combined with B vitamins and Omega 3's have been the absolute difference for me.

(I should also add that I am on 5mg. of Lexapro, but I was on that before starting the aminos and was still very symptomatic. Side effects of Lexapro above 5mg. were too bad for me to increase my dose.)

Hi all,
I am extremely curious about neuroreplete and wondered if any of you could update me on how you got on with it? I have just been diagnosed with depression and have been prescribed fluoxetine (which is just prozac without the brand name) but am pretty scared to try it. I much prefer the sound of neuroreplete but would be really grateful for further advice as I see SSRIs as a 'last resort.' Many thanks!

Supplements never work, they would be medications if they did. Supplements are substances that never made it as medications.

Only platinum, iridium and vanadium do something.

Iridium installs telepathy, vanadium is for cannabis induced brain changes.

I just started this process the middle of April this year 2009. I am in the Dallas area and will be going to the office located on one of the post by one of their staff members. I have been with a different doc in the area, but left this week due to the staff in her office. I can see how this is working for me and I am not to the end. The phone number posted also for finding a doc in your area is also real, I spoke to them on Friday, yesterday to get a new doc to keep me on this program. I hope that those of you who do not feel these post are real and heart felt do find a place to get the treatment you need. We do not have to argue to find what we need, if this post is not for you, then keep looking. I also will not give out my personal info for safety reasons. I am so glad to find this post. My doc told me in her office on the first visit what she thought was wrong with me based on conversation and past blood work reports. I keep a copy of all my medical reports. Then she sent me for blood work, that proved everything she was saying I needed treatment for. I also have a copy of the lab results and have had my sister in law who is an RN review them. My sister in law has no connection to this doc. The post about how this stuff treats the problems not the symtoms is so true. I have been on anti depressant meds and anti anziety meds for 11 years. I am excited to be on a program that can treat me and after the program is done then I will be off all the meds. What perscription for depression or anziety has done that for anyone. I am glad I found this post and am even more blessed that I found the program. So remember the post from dallas was real, I am going to there office next week, and the phone number to get a doc is real I called them Friday July 10th, 2009 To all good luck and enjoy the blessing you are recieving from this program. I can't spell and sorry for that.

Update: I had my neurotransmitter levels tested again this past summer after 10 months on Neuroreplete and they are back to normal again. I have one question though-I'm avoiding going to the doctor because they don't cover my teacher's insurance anymore. The doctor who I don't normally see-I see his coworker-emailed me back as per my request and told me that the neurotransmitter levels usually level out about 3-4 months after stopping and may drop slightly so I should take the capsules for another 3 months after getting tested again. I seem to be doing fine now. What should I do? Have any of you had the problems return after stopping for 3-4 months?
