Mood Plus
Mood Plus is a sophisticated and multi-dimensional formula specifically crafted to enhance mood and cognitive function safely. This innovative blend combines various well-researched mood-enhancing nutrients and botanicals, including L-tyrosine and 5-HTP. Additionally, it incorporates other key ingredients, such as Rhodiola, Eleutherococcus, and PharmaGABA®, all of which work synergistically to promote healthy neurotransmitter activity and support adrenal function.
One of the standout features of Mood Plus is that it is a “Hypericum-free” formula. Research indicates that Hypericum, commonly known as St. John’s wort, can induce the cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) enzyme. This induction can lead to reduced blood levels of medications metabolized by this enzyme. By omitting Hypericum, Mood Plus becomes a safe option for individuals who are taking medications that require CYP3A4 for metabolism, ensuring compatibility and effectiveness.
Furthermore, low serum and red blood cell concentrations of vitamin B12 can adversely affect mood and overall well-being. Vitamin B12 plays a crucial role in supporting healthy neurological function and red blood cell formation. Both of these factors significantly contribute to enhancing mood and managing stress more effectively.
In addition to these essential ingredients, Eleuthero (Eleutherococcus senticosus) stands out as a renowned adaptogen included in Mood Plus to offer comprehensive adrenal support. To further promote a calm and balanced state of mind, the formula incorporates gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). GABA functions as an inhibitory neurotransmitter, effectively balancing excessive excitatory responses in the brain. Mood Plus utilizes PharmaGABA, a patented and all-natural source of GABA, ensuring both safety and efficacy in mood enhancement. As a result, this formula becomes a valuable component of any stress management plan.
Warnings and Precautions
While Mood Plus is generally safe, it is essential to be aware of certain precautions. If you experience symptoms such as irritability or insomnia, you should discontinue use immediately. Additionally, some individuals may feel drowsy after taking this supplement; therefore, it is crucial to exercise caution when operating heavy machinery, driving, or engaging in activities that require mental alertness. If your symptoms persist or worsen, consult a healthcare practitioner for guidance.
Moreover, pregnant or breastfeeding individuals, as well as those taking antidepressant medications, hormone replacement therapy (HRT), or birth control pills, should consult a healthcare practitioner before starting Mood Plus. It is also important to avoid this supplement if you have bipolar disorder or any condition on the bipolar spectrum. Individuals with epilepsy, or those taking carbidopa or other drugs/supplements that exhibit serotonergic activity, should seek advice from a healthcare practitioner prior to use. Such substances may include L-tryptophan, S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe), St. John’s wort, various antidepressants, pain medications, and over-the-counter cough and cold medicines that contain dextromethorphan.
If you notice any signs of weakness, oral ulcers, or abdominal pain accompanied by severe muscle pain, you should discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional. Additionally, individuals with scleroderma should not use Mood Plus. Some people may experience gastrointestinal discomfort, including diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. Finally, consuming this product alongside alcohol or other medications and natural health products with sedative properties is not recommended.
To ensure safety, keep Mood Plus out of reach of children. Do not use the product if the security seal inside the cap is broken. Always store it tightly sealed in a cool, dry place to maintain its efficacy.
