uridine

[Guest guest]

Dear Dr. Ed and others,

reproduced below is your, Dr. Ed, mail in which you gave me some links on

uridine. I explored those two links. But the first one is on uridine in relation

to mitochondria. The second one is not on uridine at all but on folate toxicity.

 

I am trying to learn where else is uridine found apart from sugarbeet and

molasses?

 

Can a depressed patient just chew up sugarbeet or sugarcane and get the uridine?

 

Howmuch sugarbeet or sugarcane to chew to get the therapeutic dose of uridine to

lift up her depression?

 

These above are my questions which I cannot answer by visiting the web sites

that I know of. Any help from anybody will be of immense help.

 

As most of us know, the article appeared in Biological Psychiatry and the author

was interviewed in Psychology Today that uridine was lifting up depression in

rats IMMEDIATELY whereas omega3, much like psychiatry anti-depressants, was

taking over a month to do the job.

 

Thanks indeed.

Ratan.

Here are some links about uridine:

 

http://www.i-base.info/pub/htb/v4/htb4-7/potential.html (But this site is on

relevance of uridine to mitochondria. Its not about depression).

 

http://www.feinberg.northwestern.edu/nutrition/factsheets/folate.html (But this

site is on Folate, not uridine).

 

But I would especially recommend the work of Harold D. Foster, PhD

who makes the connection between acid rain, soil deficiencies and

schizophrenia, AIDS and Alzheimer's dx. You can download his eBooks

free from his site.
