I have a pretty bad case of anxiety derived from schizophrenia.
Most of my major symptoms are under control except the crazy extreme anxiety associated with scz. I have been taking 75mg of Bet-Glucan in the form of maitake extract. Have been getting surprising results over a period of 3 weeks. This is not a long enough time but I think it is worth mentioning. Beta Glucan is an immune stimulant (as stated on bottle) I took a Beta-Glucan yeast extract 2 months ago and the immediate results were nothing short of amazing which is why I suspected it might be a placebo effect. The reason being the effects were not consistent...I stopped taking them. In desperation I wanted to give them another try and the only type I could find was Maitake Gold. I tried 5 caps and again the same profound results but not everyday. I've had very good days and average days. Anyone have any similar results or reliable explanation (besides placebo)? References on the web make no mention of anything like this except animated videos on You Tube showing BG gobbling up immune depressors for dinner.) There is also the possibility that being a stimulant the effect will wear off with continued use. |
