Hi HBC,
I must say I am pretty impressed with HBC; the products that I have bought have been excellent quality at an excellent price. What’s also impressive is how easy it is to buy stuff from your company from the UK. I find a lot of American supplement companies aren’t interested or slap on so much extra charge, and complicated procedure, as to make it not worthwhile. With your company, I just click a button and pay the same price as everyone else - it’s so simple and easy. Also, other American companies often don’t reply to emails where your company were quick and helpful. You deserve to prosper.

Both of my hips were so bad I couldn't stand or walk or sit. I was constantly in pain. I couldn't even bend down. Had a hard time carrying my purse. I could only shop in places where I had a shopping cart to lean on . I was in excruciating pain. My friend Vicki told me about your joint support. You all recommended I take the Omega with the JS. One week later 85% of the pain went away! I can definitely do my daily chores like vacuuming. I live on 5 acres so I need to walk a lot, I just couldn't do it before but now I can.

Glad to hear of your rapid result. But, one week is too fast for the Joint Support to have such a profound effect. JS is a long term protocol for old used joints. Your pain was undoubtedly mitigated by the Omega Oils as they have the ability to go straight to the cox 1 and 2 receptor site where they assuage inflammation and pain.
Please send me more of the ultra potent seals. I have been applying the hgh patch on the right side of my face because the skin is just not as taught. It is under the right eye. This seems to help a lot. At first I thought it was the adhesive in the patch so I tried scotch tape but that wasn't it. it was not the same result. I wear them when I sleep. I get two days out of a patch.

 Four years ago I searched St. John's Wort, and I found a link to this site. Which was one of the best things in my life to just fall on my lap. I started to talk to Jeff, aka "The Book" to my friends, and he increased my knowledge dramatically. Customer service at this place has been awesome.
Now the quality of any of these products by far has blown everything I've tried out of the water. And for the herb/vitamin realm, brand is everything. If I ran out, didn't have enough cash, got something half decent at the health food store. It helped, but when I would re-up from HBC, I was just reminded of why I didn't buy anything else to begin with. And this has gone for any product I've tried.
With the help of the Jeff and such fine products, I went from an insanely depressed person, to someone who could function and who took control over his life. For the first time.
Jeff payed me 20 bucks to say all this, but it's all true.
Haha.. Jeff you can take that last part out. But that's my testimony... as biased as it seems almost. Is completely true. Thanks for the all help over these years.

I started taking HBC Protocol's St. John's Wort back in 1997 after I saw the 60 minutes show with Dr. Johnson and Barbara Walters.
1. It helped me to loose 50 pounds. I felt so much better that I was able to start walking.
2. I went off all of the other meds. (just about every one on the market) because the side effects were horrific. I was chocking on my tongue with seizures.
St. John's has been a God send.
Thanks!

Dear HBC,
I wanted to thank you for your product. I recently purchased Hypericum Perforatmum II due to a moderate depression. I no longer feel like everything in my life is wrong, and that I am a victim to any of it. I no longer have intense mood swings, I have started working out at the gym and feeling able to maintain my program there, I start back to school in the fall to finish my bachelor’s degree I started when I was 18. (I am now 38), and I am finally happy for the most part in my relationship. I would have never had the energy, focus, or determination to do any of this without St John’s Wart. I did not want to go on any pills prescribed by a doctor, as I did not want the side effects. This product has changed my life. Thank you so much for your informational website.

After dealing with HBC for a few different issues, I had to write this letter to show my appreciation to a company as good as HBC is.
I have suffered with depression for quite some time now. I always felt tired and moody and it never occured to me that I could be depressed. Facing each day was a challenge, and normal things like attending school seemed like an unreasonable chore. I began to look online at different things, and I came to the conclusion that I may be depressed.
After reaching this conclusion, I saw what the side effects of the RX meds were, and made a decision right then and there, that I would try everything I could that was natural, first, before advancing to the MAOI's, SSRI's, etc. I read about St. Johns Wort and decided to try it. I purchased a bottle and then found Clarocet. It sounded better so I purchased a bottle.
It was at this time, I spoke to the wonderful people on the live help line who informed me that what I was holding was a bunch of garbage compared to the wonderful, high-quality, standardized formula HBC offered. I immediately returned both bottles and purchased a bottle of HBC Hypericum Perforatum II.
I started taking it, and slowly saw a very weak change. I then spoke to Jared (who is wonderful!!!) who informed me that I could take 5-HTP with it, and it would help the ramp up to relief. I purchased a bottle and took both together.
WOW! What a difference. Literally within 3 days, I could see a HUGE difference. Life had a new meaning. I woke up in the morning happy, ready to face the day. The day seemed easier to get through, because the sun was shining, and I was able to enjoy it. I was no longer stuck in this one stage of my life, watching everything speed by. My appetite was more stable, I could sleep better, I enjoyed my family more, my mood swings lessened dramatically.
I slowly optimized those results by adding things like DMAE, B-Vitamins, etc. To get where I am now.
I feel like a new person, and it's all thanks to HBC Protocols.
Thanks

As a long term user of your brand of St Johns Wort for, what I presume is mild
constitutional depression ( as opposed to a depression with identifiable
external cause ), I am happy to report I no longer suffer from this painful
condition. I became aware of a general improvement in mood and energy some four
to six weeks into the treatment at the standard dose of one tablet three times
daily. I have experienced no untoward side effects during some eight years of
use, nor did I notice a decrease in effectiveness. As a physician I was
unwilling to consider such "natural" remedy until a friend has shown me the
appropriate literature, having read it I decided to try - I am glad I did.
I hasten to add the medication is not recommended for severe, possible suicidal,
depression.

To Whom it May Concern,
I don't know how I found you, it was probably some search engine for lithium. I saw something about lithium orotate with no side effects. Let me also say that it was pretty bad time in my life and my wife was about to leave me. I ordered a bottle of Symmetry and immediately started feeling better. So, I placed another order for 4 bottles and started taking it daily. After 3 months I asked my wife again and she said "Yeah, your better." So, here we are! Thank you.

Good morning, and thank you for your
wonderful website.
After experimenting, I've found that SAMe is absolutely THE BEST for me, in
combo with 5HTP (for appetite control it's working GREAT!) and
DMAE. At first, I thought the DMAE was not going to work, but thanks to your
advice, I started on a much lower dosage and have grown to
really appreciate what it does for me. I was on prescription meds and its so
good to feel un-numb.
SAMe is kind of expensive, but "Who cares!"
Also, please put me back on continuity for DMAE. I'm going to take one 500mg
tablet daily. Please maintain the continuity for SAMe and 5HTP. This regime
is soooooo much better than prescription antidepressants! Oh, I do have a
question: Is it OK to take DMAE and Omega-3 fish oil?
I shared a dose of DMAE with a co-worker today, since he was curious about
what it was doing for me. He's basically in the same boat as I am with
life-long depression. Both of us early on in life took to self-medicating
with alcohol and some other stuff that we of the hippie generation used to
"experiment" with in the 60's and 70's and 80's and... and then wised up and
cleaned up but still had the depression problem (and he had ADHD on top of
that). Anyway, he's been jovially making fun of me for trying OTC "nuts and
twigs" instead of prescription meds and telling me that "any placebo will
work if you want it to". So, he tried a dose of DMAE out of curiosity. About
4 hours later, he came back and asked for the brochure on your company,
which I was glad to share with him, and he also asked if he could borrow a
few DMAE doses for the weekend until he could get a supply of his own. He
said he'd been so productive and focused for the past three hours that he
couldn't believe it. "Nuts and twigs" indeed. LOL!
Thanks for your help and advice!!!

I cannot say thank you enough for all you
are doing. You know what?
Companies like your will reshape the way people do business; I am dealing
with a far away company, and all my problems are being solved easier than if
I had to talk to a pharmacy down the street here.
The day will come when the companies with the best services will own the
Internet. And you will certainly be among the leaders.
Thanks!

To HBC Protocols:
My name is Sylvia. In February 2005 I experienced a traumatic incident by being carjacked and sexually assaulted at gun point. Within a few days, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) ensued and has since been my experience. I am fortunate that after seven months, my recurring nightmares and flashbacks did cease. Unfortunately, however, I have continued to experience panic attacks.
Not wanting to pursue relief via medical prescriptions, I began investing many, many hours (by now, probably hundreds of hours) into reading about physiology, treatments, and natural supplements which could help alleviate my panic attacks and related severe depression. I simply did not want to go the typical route of dealing with my situations.
I soon began trying to raise my serotonin with some specific amino acid therapy formulas. Due to extreme nausea that I would encounter from greatly depleted serotonin, it took me approximately nine months to build up to a beneficial daily dosage of 300mg of the 5-HTP. (I was unaware at the time of your company's transdermal 5-HTP cream.)
After three weeks of the amino acid therapy (mid-February 2006), I decided to have my neurotransmitter levels tested. My serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine levels tested within the suboptimal category--which means, they're not normal and they're now not dangerously low. However, my epinephrine level showed to be at an 80% deficit.
In order to illustrate that deficit, imagine having only one quart of oil in an engine that normally requires five quarts of oil. It won't be long before the engine will begin to smoke and cease to function. Without sufficient intervention, a breakdown is inevitable.
I have been impacted in three major ways, as a result of the greatly depleted epinephrine levels: very, very low energy; greatly diminished stress management; and anger hypersensitivity. I am normally not given to anger. In a non-PTSD state, I usually am quite calm, even in very intense situations. However, since the incident, that's not been the case.
So, in desperation, somehow, I found your website and products. And, in continued desperation, I ordered the Symmetry nasal spray.
I received the product on a Monday morning. By noon, I had a panic attack. Up until using the Symmetry, I had never been able to return to a calm state (once an attack ensued) in less than an hour. In fact, an hour for my panic attack recovery time has been a short duration--in comparison to some of my more intense attacks.
When the attack began that Monday, I just returned from my lunch break. As soon as I parked my vehicle, the attack began with an normal fury. Because of the physical effects from the attack, I required approximately two minutes to walk less than fifty feet (to my desk). Once at my desk, I pulled the Symmetry out of a drawer and immediately administered a total of four sprays (two per nostril). My results: within five minutes, my nerves had calmed dramatically; within ten minutes, I was symptom-free. Several times since, I have experienced similar results in what I call "anger flares," with being able to calm down within only a few minutes of taking the Symmetry. And, on one very long and difficult night, the Symmetry helped me in preventing self-termination (suicide).
I have not retained my receipts on all of the products I have tested, in the effort to improve concerning my PTSD symptomology. However, I am sure a conservative amount would be $2,000-$3,000. My only regret concerning Symmetry is that I did not know about it much, much sooner.
--Sylvia, a very satisfied Symmetry consumer.

Dear Jeff,
I talked with you several weeks ago and you
recommended I take 5htp and dmae. I have been taking
these two for several weeks now, and WOW, what a
difference!! Thank you so much for taking the time to
talk with me. Now I need some more 5htp. Can I order
that through you again, or should I just go online and
place an order on the website?

Dear HBC:
Normally I do
not write letters but in this case, I just had to. A few months ago I
started using your products.
I was in a very bad state of depression and I was in
this hole I couldn't get out of. I tried so hard, and it just was not going
away on its
own. I decided to make an appointment with my
doctor for anti-depressants, which I was very nervous about. I researched
the most
popular and I was really really sad about having to take that
route. I am an avid runner and I was really concerned about what that
would do to my running and general outlook. I also am the single
mother of 2 small children and even more important than my
running I felt constantly on edge and irritable with them. My
brain always felt "foggy" and I couldn't really focus - on anything! I was
feeling horrible about everything.
One night it was really bad and I remembered being in
a pharmacy once and over hearing a woman telling the pharmacist she was
really worked and she said it worked better than her Prozac and
she hated Prozac. Even though that was 15 years ago, I always remembered
that conversation.
To make a long story short, that night I somehow found
your site. After reading everything on the site, I decided to try YOU first
before I went to a doctor. I started with the St Johns Wort, Griffonia, and
DMAE. I thought that the investment was small enough, if it didn't
work I didn't lose anything.
I received my supplements, and in my head I wasn't
expecting anything for 6-8 weeks. So I took them religiously, and less than
two
weeks later I realized I was feeling GREAT. I didn't even put two and two
together. I told my friend that day "Wow I feel so good today!
I wish I felt like this every day" and she
asked if she thought it was the supplements. Because it was so "quick" I
remember thinking
WOW That worked FAST. I have now added Keto DHEA to my daily
doses. The most important thing that has changed is I am not
even a little irritable anymore. I am more calm than I ever have
been in my entire life. The best compliment I have ever had
was
overhearing my 10 year old niece and my 6 year old daughter talking about
me and she said "Your mom never yells!" My kids can
totally tell a difference with me. Things just do not bother me like
they used to, I just feel 200 percent better.
I am so grateful for your products and how they changed
my life. I know that sounds so crazy, but its true. I feel like "Im on
track" and I
feel "focused". The "fog" is gone. Thank you thank
you thank you.

Congratulations on your continuing recovery. And, thanks for taking the time to relate your experience in such a heartfelt and
articulate letter. Feedback like
yours is what makes our work here at HBC Protocols such an
intrinsically satisfying endeavor.
With your permission I would like to post your letter among the
other testimonials. (With just your initials and city or state if
you prefer). Perhaps your words will resonate for some other
individual out there-- someone who could take heed of your
vigilant/daily observance of regular exercise and the importance of
bringing joy to their children, family and friends.
Yours in gratitude,

I would not mind you using my letter!!!! YES Please just
use my initials. One of my employees (We've been friends
since we were 4) just ordered from you, because I told her
to and I am hoping it helps her too. I tell anyone who will
listen to me about your site and what I am taking. I feel
like I want everyone to feel like this! I would be
honored if you used my letter!!! Thank you again,
you have a lifetime customer !!!!!
Dear HBC,
My Mom lost her husband, my step-dad, on
Christmas day at 5 pm and basically she just
wouldn't leave the house, couldn't sleep,
and when she could she woke up tired. Her
doctor put her on Prozac and then Zoloft.
The Prozac lasted a week. She had to go off
of it because she felt like her blood was
boiling and had a dry mouth. The Zoloft just
didn't work. Desperate for a solution, she
went on store bought St. John's wort
which was pretty good. A start. I did some
research and put her on your regular
formulation which helped her about 85%. I
then switched her to the formulation with B
vitamins which was a perfect fix. I am happy
to say that one year later she has gone off
the SJW and after 10 days is doing great.
Thanks for everything.
Sincerely,
Steve H

A
letter carrier for the USPS I had incurred a
severe accident (knocked off my feet) which
left me with a severed ligament in the left
arch of my foot. Many different doctors had
me on painkillers for 2 to 3 years. Finally
i had the good fortune to become a patient
of and surgery by the world renowned
orthopedic surgeon DR Mark Mierson, director
of the orthopedic department of Mercy
hospital in Baltimore City. This enabled me
to walk again with much mitigation of pan.
Ten
years later, after pain had returned to both
free, (I was then 55 years old) x rays by Dr
Miersons associate showed that bones were
rubbing against other bones in the foot due
to the lack of calcium and synovial
lubrication--85% absent) and he offered the
possibility of more surgery to fuse
said bones. I was in a lot of pain, but had
I done so, I would have lost lateral
movement and I didn't want to walk like
Frankenstein.
Based on the
recommendation of my brother and sister in
law, I took HBC Protocols Joint Support for
the arthritis in my feet and knee (85%no
cartilage in each foot) after 6 months
I experienced a noticeable improvement in
that the pain had subsided substantially and
was able to walk further and do much more
activity wise. Later it was recommended that
I try MSM for its additional benefits. (I
have always had good hair and skin but soft
nails) as it worked synergistically with the
Joint Support. It took about 6 months but
now I am taking just the MSM, 4 grams every
day, and the pain has subsided
substantially, 50 to 60% which is a
blessing, believe me. I love this product.
Thank you HBC!

I have been taking st johns wort for
several weeks now and I'm pleased to
report they are working for me! I
am so glad that I decided to use
your company as I feel confident
that yours are the best! I have a
question and I wondered if you could
kindly answer this. I take 3
tablets a day and I spread them out
- morning, lunchtime and evening.
Do I really have to do this? Can I
take them all in one go? How is it
done in the clinical trials as I
suppose that is what I should
follow?
Kind regards
A.F.
Dear A.
Glad to hear that
you experiencing a positive result.
Thank for the feedback.
The vast majority
of studies for depression, were
conducted by administrating 300 mgs of
SJW three times per day.
Interestingly, this protocol was
initiated long before we learned that
the elimination half life of one of the
main actives of SJW known as hyperforin
was about 8 or 9 hours. On the other
hand the elimination of another active
in SJW, Hypericin seems to be about 26.5
hours. That being the case some people,
(myself included) take it all at once.
After all, after six weeks it does build
up in the system, inhibiting the
reuptake of serotonin, norepinephrine,
dopamine and GABA
Still, you are
probably better off taking it three
times per day, but some days that
compliance isn't feasible. The choice is
yours.
Hope this helps,

Hola"
Hi there!
I just placed my third order with HBC......obviously I think your products
are remarkable. I've taken vitamins etc forever but the products from HBC really
seem to
*work* amazingly well!
Anyway...thank you for sending me the Lemon facial Cleanser with a prior
order!!!! I really like it a lot. I had also ordered the copper serum which
I think is quite effective. In the order I placed yesterday I order the DHEA
skin cream. I am curious...at night when using the products...do you use the
serum and the cream on top of it or the other way around?
I am quite impressed...I had always used high end facial cleansers,
creams etc and Dr Perricone products......I think your products are better
and they are less expensive.....a great combo!
I do think that HBC should offer samples of the skin products!!!!! : )
Please let me know about the order of the serum & cream.
BTW......my husband used to take Prozac a while back and hated it and has
been taking your St John's Wort and the Spray and they are terrific. We also
ordered the HTP this time.
Thanks Alana!

application lasts an entire day!!! I don't know what spf it is, but it is
truly spectacular.
Occasionally I have had problems with deliveries (new batch/new labels...)

Hi,
I just wanted to say thank you because I am a happy customer for several
years now. I always order St. John's Wort from you and recently one of
your reps recommended your Thea-Zen. That stuff is great and I'm so glad
I listened to his advice.
Now, my sister, who is also a long-time satisfied customer, is recommending
I try your Kava Calm as I'm having trouble sleeping lately.
I hope it's as good as your other products.
Anyway, thanks again. I don't know what I'd do without you and your very
informative website.

Hi Chris,
Just wanted to say thanks for all that coaching on the phone about how
to successfully
use the ultra patches. Although I generally follow directions pretty well,
sometimes I
overdo it and think if I use something five days a week, then using it
seven days a week
must be better. If I hadn't listened to you I am sure I would not be getting
the full benefit
of the Ultra Patches that I'm getting now.
Let me start from the beginning. I think your ultra patches work great.
For the past few
years following back surgery, I've had some back and leg pain after exercise
and so I no
longer continued to do regular exercise every day. I gained some weight
as a result of this
which made it even more difficult to exercise no matter how much I wanted
to.
When I started on the patches I was very careful not to use them more than
the
recommended five days a week followed by the two days off and at the end
of the
month take a complete five days off before continuing them again. This
way when I
use them, the patches never fail to work for me because I have not build
up an excess
of the hgh in my body and don't an allergic reaction to it, which makes
your body need
more and more of it to work. Used correctly the recommended dosage works
beautifully
every time.
It has done wonders for me physically and psychologically. My self esteem
is back and
I look forward to the challenge of taking walks every day and other forms
of physical
exercise as well. It seems to work best for me if I cut the patches up
and apply them
where I am the most sore after walking. Then I remove them at night, get
a good nights
rest and reuse them the following day. If necessary I can always use 3
M tape over them
which keeps them in place quite nicely.
Anyway, thanks again.
Your friend from NM,

To whom it may concern,
Re: l-theanine
I came across the following information while researching L-Theanine (http://www.nnfa.org/services/science/bg_ltheanine.htm) "The
D- enantiomer of theanine is found in variable amounts within tea leaves
(black, green, and oolong) but the L- enantiomer is predominant. Prolonged
exposure to heat promotes the conversion of L-theanine into D-theanine
and also its degradation (1A). A recent study found that several commercial
sources of "pure L-theanine" actually are 50:50 (racemic) mixtures
of both D- and L-theanine (13A). The safety and efficacy of D-theanine
or DL-theanine racemic
mixtures is unknown." Is your formulation only the L-enantiomer
(L-Theanine) or do you use the racemic mixture, i.e., D+L-Theanine?
Thanks,
Rich
February 2, 2005
Dear Rich,
You are quoting from the Armstrong paper that compares Suntheanine to
other sources of theanine. HBC's Thea-Zen is produced using only Suntheanine
brand L-theanine, which has been certified to be of only the L-isomer.
I have attached a few documents that should clarify the issue.
1. Acceptable
Structure/Function Claims (Word Doc)
2. Analysis of Derivatized and
Underivatized Theanine Enantiomers (pdf)
3. L-Theanine Impostors Abound (Word Doc)
Please let us know if you have any questions or if we can be of any further
assistance.
Sincerely,
Customer Service
Thank you for the additional information. Since I use other products
from your company after doing what research I can, I am not surprised to
learn that Thea-Zen is properly formulated with high quality components.

Many thanks to Jeff for taking so much of his time to explain a variety of options to best suit my family's needs, and for providing such great customer service.

I'm becoming a bigger fan of Thea-zen as days go by. Seems to be a good mix with
SJW because SJW has me happier in general but I'm still prone to becoming too stressed or hyper. So I take the
Thea-zen when that becomes a problem and all of a sudden I notice I'm leveled off, you don't feel a pill kicking in or anything, just kind of back to a "normal" mood. I'm surprised more people don't know about it. Pretty thankful for you guys here in the aftermath
of Canadian thanksgiving.

 I am in good health--thanks to your products. I "love" the Thea-Zen;
I already feel a difference. I typically react very quickly to medicines,
supplements, etc. That's how I can easily judge if a product is effective
or not; that's why I send everyone to your site.
P.S. Something else of great value to me about HBC is that
I can get immediate and extensive information which I have come to trust
implicitly. Keep up the great work that you're doing. You appear to be
a service-oriented company that just happens to sell the best supplements,
and I like that idea.

I started SJW from you guys a week ago
today, after 3 weeks on store bought and doing some other things [a little
better eating and exercise, less liquor and no marijuana] to improve
my health since the start of August. Lately I've been noticing improvements
literally every day. I started feeling more upbeat over the weekend,
now anxiety's becoming less of a problem. Can't speak for a med after
one week, but I'm impressed.
Thanks for your help.

I wanted
to share my experience with HBC and what has taken place since
taking Hypericum Perforatum ll (St. John's Wort). I was
led to this product after reading the book Hypericum and
Depression by Bloomfield, Nordfors, and McWilliam. I am
55 yrs. old and have suffered from chronic depression my
whole life. I am a recovering alcoholic of 14 yrs. After
I began my recovery program my depression went to ultimate
heights of recurrence with alot of suicide ideation that
became unbearable. After psychiatric consultation and trial
and error with 12 synthetic anti-depressants over several
years, I read the above book and began SJW. I have been
off all synthetics now for over 2 years and regularly use
Hypericum Perforatum from HBC. The quality of the product
is superb and a real God send. I am forever grateful. I
must admit that I have a lifestyle of exercise, nutrition,
friends, and anything else that will positively support
healthy living. It is constant vigilance. Thanks HBC for
your quality product and great customer service! Sincerely,
SCC from Wa.

Dear SCC,
Wow! Congratulations on your continuing recovery. And, thanks for taking the
time to relate your experience with both St John's wort and
HBC Protocols in such a heartfelt and articulate letter. Feedback
like yours is what makes leading this company such an intrinsically
satisfying endeavor. Your letter will be posted at once, with
the hope that more of the myriad of depressed individuals out
there will seek, and achieve, the same degree of emotional
support that you have. Here's hoping they also take heed of
your vigilant/daily observance of good diet, regular exercise,
and arguably the most important element of all, the company
of good friends.
Yours in gratitude,
Chris McMullen
President
HBC Protocols, Inc

Merry Christmas to you and yours! God Bless!

THANK YOU FOR HELPING ME BRING THIS INTO OUR LIVES. My friend, who has been diagnosed bipolar and on a variety of anti-depressant medication for almost a year, still experiences severe mood swings, depression with suicidal tendencies, sleeplessness, jumbled thoughts, anger and addiction. His current regime of Lexapro and Depakote have almost no effect, in fact, may be more harmful than good. In desperation I have been researching other options and came across Symmetry. I contacted customer service via email very late one night and was surprised to receive a response 30 minutes later, which was an indication of the type of service I would happily receive. I spoke to an extremely qualified gentleman named Jeff who gave me a breakdown of every ingredient, its function and how it specifically targets bipolar symptoms. I had the product overnighted, and within 10 minutes of application I could see a difference in my friend's responses. He said his thoughts "were quieter", allowing him to concentrate more. 10 minutes!! Not only is the product effective, the personalized customer service and guidance has been
extraordinary.

I
just wanted to write you a quick note to say thanks for helping me to feel
like myself again! I'm almost afraid to say it, but it seems the depression
is practically gone. I still have an occasional "bad" day, but I have so
radically improved from where I was at the beginning of the summer, it's
unbelievable.
I just re-ordered a new
supply of SAM-e. Am getting by on 2 per day...occasionally I'll take more
during PMS week. I also ordered more HGH patches.
Again, I THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for helping me and
for your personalized service. I have already recommended your company
several times and will continue to do so. It just amazes me how many people
will run to medication first, though. Several women I know have struggled
with two or three kinds of anti-depressants over the past couple of
months.....terrible side affects, etc. I have had no unpleasant side effects
and feel better with each passing day!

Since my father passed away three
years ago I have experienced depression each year from around November until
spring. I have researched depression a great deal, so you can judge
this e-mail as authoritative; as far as my life is concerned. In other
words, I know what I am talking about. I have tried three other brands
of St. John's Wort and none gave me any relief. I called a buddy of
mine and he sent me a month supply of Wellbutrin. I found your product
on line and read about the quality control of it and I decided to try St.
John's Wort one more time before I tried the pharmaceuticals. After
about three weeks on HBC Hypericum Perforatum I felt like a new
person. Actually, like my old self. I was smiling and happy
again. Lots of times I would be happy and smiling for no reason, which
I think is neat. I actually ran out of the 280 tablets and
thought everything would be fine, but the symptoms came back. So, for
me, there was the verification that: one, St. John's Wort really works and
two, it matters the way it is prepared. In other words I know St. John's
Wort works but it has to be extracted properly.
I have ordered another bottle and plan
to continue to taking it indefinitely. I guess I just wanted to
thank you for offering a quality product. It works and I believe your
advertising statements about the quality control and production of the
product are true. Thanks again.
