| Primary Active Ingredients |
Hyperforin
from Hypericum perforatum (St. John's wort) extract (aerial portion)
[600mg standardized to 3% hyperforin; standardized to .3% hypericin] | 18 mg | Hyperforin, the active ingredient in St. John's wort, acts as a reuptake inhibitor of the brain's natural "feel good" chemical messengers: serotonin, norepinephrine, dopamine & GABA. AMORYN contains the same hyperforin-rich St. John's wort extract prescribed in Europe for depression and anxiety. Learn more... |
5-HTP
(5-hydroxytryptophan)
from Griffonia simplicifolia extract | 25 mg | 5-HTP is used by the brain to make serotonin, the brain's natural "feel good" neurotransmitter. By increasing serotonin levels, 5-HTP promotes a positive outlook. Learn more... |
Rhodiola Rosea
extract (root)
standardized to 4% rosavins
and 1% salidrosides | 90 mg | Rhodiola is an adaptogenic herb that can increase serotonin activity by up to 30%. Rhodiola also increases the activity of two other mood-related neurotransmitters, dopamine and norepinephrine. Within a few days, Rhodiola produces increased energy and motivation, reduced anxiety, and elevated feelings of confidence and optimism. Learn more... |

| B vitamins provide nutritional support for mood-related pathways. B6, B12 and Folic Acid allow your brain to produce extra SAM-e, a proven natural antidepressant used in Europe for over 20 years. SAM-e is crucial to maintaining proper levels of serotonin, dopamine and norepinephrine. Buying SAM-e is expensive (over $100/month) but AMORYN allows your brain to produce it naturally by providing extra B6, B12 and Folic Acid. |
| Selenium | 70mcg | Clinical research shows that a diet low in selenium may contribute to feelings of depression, anxiety and fatigue. Unfortunately, many adults do not receive the optimal amount of this vital nutrient. |
Vitamin D3
(Cholecalciferol) | 400 IU | Vitamin D deficiency, common during the winter months, can contribute to a negative emotional outlook. Likewise, increased vitamin D consumption has been shown to elevate mood, and may be particularly effective at relieving seasonal depression. Vitamin D appears to increase the activity of serotonin, the brain's natural "feel good" neurotransmitter, and may also reduce the risk of cancer. AMORYN contains vitamin D3, the most effective form of vitamin D. |
| Zinc | 15 mg | Studies show that certain depressed or anxious individuals may be deficient in this important mineral, and zinc supplementation can help improve mood in these cases. |
| Vitamin C | 10 mg | Vitamin C is an antioxidant used throughout the body to protect cells, including nerve cells in the brain. Vitamin C is also involved in many mood-critical metabolic processes. |
