Format:Mass Market Paperback
I had suffered from depression for more than 25 years, off and on, and finally I was put on anti-depressants. I hated the side effects and eventually had to quit the meds. I came across this book, just a small mass produced paperback book and the information, although simple has changed my life. I no longer have mood swings, dark brooding periods or headaches. The author takes a lot of time to explain the physiology behind it all. If the science is too much for the reader than he/she can just get to the nitty gritty of it all. The method she proposes is simple for anyone to follow. My husband was very skeptical about a book changing one's life but I had no choice but to give a chance. I'm forever grateful to the author for writing this book. My family has a wife and mother now who isn't a Jekyll and Hyde show.

This book spends much of the first half telling you all the effects of low serotonin and keeps hinting at how to improve it. Then when it does finally tell you ways to improve your serotonin levels it repeats all the conditions felt if levels are low. It feels therefore repetitive and like you are reading the same book over and over again. The book could have easily been half the length and still include all the same information. I also found the actual advice repetitive from other advice books - eat a healthy balanced diet with regular snacks and exercise often! Not really worth the money in my opinion.

Congrats on a good review of this neurotransmitter that is so key in so much of how we behave, and which can be influenced by so many things around us. Nice focus. Recommend "The Care and Feeding of Your Brain" for a general view of all things that affect the brain and behavior...Kenneth Giuffre MD
