Just looking through a natural remedies catalogue. Valerian for sleep and stress, St. John's wort for SAD and depression, vitamin B complex for energy. Don't know if that's helpful to anyone? Xx

On other one thats good for depression ect is 5HTP, called happy pills, actually 5HTP is the doctors answer to the pill called Prozac, that apparently has been proven , you can get them from holland &Barrat or go on line to healthspan there products are very good, that's where I get all mine from...gentle hugs ...Dee x

Just watch out for St Johns Wort as it interacts badly with loads of other drugs including the Pill and negates its effectiveness.

Please be careful when trying out herbal remedies - they can interact with your meds from the gp & also with each other & cause you all sorts of problems. It's always best to get medical advice before trying anything like this.

marmite you either love it or hate it, but you can add it to gravies and sauces not just for toast or sandwiches :o
