Also available as a capsule.✝︎ View Product How To Choose Your Supplement(s) When putting together a supplement protocol, it may be helpful to follow these steps: Journal about your starting state and include the types of mental-emotional symptoms* that you’re experiencing, along with the frequency and intensity. Match your symptoms with herbal supplements. Try to find the one or two supplements that cover the bulk of your issues - a targeted approach is usually best. Pro tip: omega 3 fatty acids and magnesium can also help support healthy mood regulation and combine well with any of the above herbal remedies. See this article for more info on the benefits of omegas: Omega Fatty Acids: Nutritional Sources & Health Benefits Explained. Check in with your doctor to identify any herb-drug interactions and to help you decide if this routine is right for you. Take your supplements for at least 1-2 months. Refer back to the notes that you wrote down in step one; take note if you’ve felt noticeable improvements. Decide if you’re going to continue taking the supplements, switch protocols, or stop altogether. Consult your doctor for help with this step.
