What a relief.Not sure if there was somewhat a placebo effect at first, but I found without a doubt that if I was too late with doses or missed doses, I found myself getting very upset. This stuff definitely helps my brain calm down and even out!

Don't know how it works but it's a miracle drug for me anyway.
