Hello,
I am working with health industry since long and i would like to know your views on treatment of mental health with herbal products.

I seen that many people are successfully treated with natural health supplements like 5 HTP... Can you share your experience with such treatment?

thanks

Hi Leighm! I, personally, do not have much experience with herbal treatments for mental illness. I must admit that I am skeptical of its usefulness mainly due to my lack of experience and knowledge of it. I think there is definitely a shortage of favorable studies, but again, I'm not an expert in this domain by any means. As with all less popular methods of treatment, I think if it works and it's harmless then why not?

Maybe you could educate us on the subject?

HeartMath: HeartMath is both the name of a research institute in Boulder Creek, California, and a system of mind/body medicine developed by the researchers there that is based on the heart's innate intelligence and ability to create healing and relieve stress when it is properly paid attention to.

The benefits of the HeartMath techniques have been verified by heart rate variability (HRV) studies that measure heart rhythm and heartbeat rates. Your heart rate changes throughout the day, becoming rapid and even erratic during times of heightened, stressful emotion, and relaxed and slower during times of peace and joy. Learning to control your heart rate can therefore dramatically improve your ability to handle stress. Training people how to do this is the goal of the techniques developed at the HeartMath Institute. Their research has shown that when these techniques are practiced regularly, levels of stress in the body are lowered and accompanied by a reduction of cortisol and other stress-hormones, as well as blood pressure levels. In addition, the HeartMath techniques have been clinical proven to enhance mood and improve cognitive function.
