Depression has long been a disorder misunderstood and without hope of recovery. New research, organized and completed within the worldΓ’β¬β’s largest university consortia to address this issue, has suggested a possible cure to be presented to the medical community in the near future. The Synergy Group has completed over 650 preliminary open case studies. Interest sparked by previously unseen results in our open case studies, has brought 5 major universities into our research consortia. Research using the Synergy Protocol, is currently funded by both government and corporate organizations who have an interest in the success we have experienced. While Double Blind Placebo controlled studies are currently taking place at universities, we feel that it is not efficacious to force people suffering with these disorders to wait for this to be announced in the media. University studies currently testing the protocol may run for the next two to three years. What we are offering is this. The Synergy Program is not available to the general public at this time, however we are allowing small numbers of people to participate in our research while waiting for the university studies to be completed. I have listed below the details of our program in relation to depression. First of all I am going to explain the mechanics of the therapy. In the human body every function revolves around and is controlled by chemical reactions. These reactions all need to be fueled by metabolic building blocks or functional nutrients in proper balance. The Synergy Group of Canada has formulated a metabolic protocol using an acid resistant chelate to act on the most basic metabolic levels. The acid resistant chelate is one of the main points of interest in this program. Unlike normal multi-vitamin and mineral supplements there is little or no disassociation or breakdown of the nutrient protocol during the normal process of digestion. Where most mineral supplements are 3- 5% absorbable and even less bio-available, we have achieved approximately 80-100% absorption and bio-availability. This factor along with our unique co-factor based balance and therapeutic levels, have created a therapy that is successful in about 95% of our open case studies. When we talk about success, what we are referring to is a complete recession of symptoms with no drugs or therapies being taken except nutrient protocol. We have found that there is a large number of people who suffer with depression who have peripheral symptoms including, bowel and sleeping disorders. For example, when a person is having a problem sleeping, (with the exception of individuals who are feeling some form of an excited emotion) it is likely they are having a problem producing Melatonin. This is a naturally produced chemical in your body that is used to relax you and basically shut everything down for the night. You should notice that when its a bright sunny day you may feel more energetic verses a dark cloudy day where you may feel a little depressed and sleepy. This is because the production of melatonin is directly related to stimulation caused by light. People who are not producing enough melatonin often have twitches and muscle spasms. Melatonin production is also directly related to Depression. People who suffer from depression do so as a result of low levels of serotonin in their brains. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that governs moods. The body naturally removes serotonin from the axonal area of the neurons to prevent us from getting a serotonin "high". Prozac, St. Johns Wort and other anti-depressants block this re-uptake mechanism and force higher amounts of serotonin to stay in the axonal area of the neuron. Unfortunately this does not solve the problem. Serotonin is still at dangerously low levels. Melatonin is a derivative of serotonin. When there is a breakdown in the production of serotonin melatonin can not be produced. This reaction causes people to feel exhausted no matter how much sleep they get. In the last 5 years a research consortia has been formed to address these problems at a different level. Instead of manipulating levels of serotonin levels at the axonal area of the neurons, this research is focused on a glandular / cellular level. By assisting in the production of these natural chemicals and creating a natural balance, we have been able to achieve a success rate of about 95%. Here is how it would work in your situation: L-Tryptophan an amino acid acted on by the enzyme 1.14.16.4 5-Hydroxy-L-tryptophan is created and then acted upon by the enzyme 4.1.1.28 Serotonin is created. Now we all know that this is the main issue with depressive patents. Prozac, St Johns Wort, and other serotonin reuptake inhibitors do not create more serotonin they actively stall the reuptake mechanism in the axonal area of the neurons. The Synergy Groups theory is based on a completely different angle. First of all the enzyme 1.14.16.4 is dependant on Ca2+ Fe2+ and Phosphorus to initiate and catalyze the reaction. Theoretically by adding Tryptophan and proper Calcium, Iron and Phosphorus Ions to the body in high doses, one should be able to increase the production of serotonin in the body. Unfortunately it is not that simple. This is only one level of production. Other valuable metabolites are needed to create the enzymes, nutrient uptake mechanisms and friendly environments needed to stabilize the reaction. If we look further down the T-pathway, we find that such metabolites as melatonin are resident and dependant on a surplus of serotonin for their production. Serotonin is acted upon by the enzyme 2.3.1.87 N-acetyl-serotonin is created and acted on by the enzyme 2.1.1.4 Melatonin is created When we study re-occurring abnormalities in patients with IBS, Crones, chronic diarrhea and other bowel disorders we find lower than normal levels of serotonin in the intestinal wall. We find that bowel disorders are a common peripheral symptom of individuals with depressive issues. We find that people with these depressive issues often worsen soon after bowel disorders set in. The reason for this supports our theory. Because the walls of the intestine are irritated or inflamed the probable absorption of metabolites lessens. This causes a chain reaction that causes less serotonin to be produced and thus less to reach the intestine and symptoms rise at an exponential rate.
