BACK, JOINT, AND MUSCLE DISCOMFORT
With over 15 years of clinical success, multiple clinical trials supporting efficacy, and a long track record of safety, Theramine is the heart smart choice for the long term dietary management of chronic pain.
Targeted Nutrition for Chronic Pain
Theramine has been the subject of two double-blind, multicenter clinical trials. In both trials, Theramine was proven to be effective as both a standalone, and adjunct therapy for the long term dietary management of pain. In clinical studies, subjects taking Theramine demonstrated a significant reduction in levels of the inflammatory markers CRP and IL-6 . *
Chronic Pain is a disease of the nervous system, altering nutrient, amino acid and neurotransmitter metabolism. Over the past decade, scientific research has focused on the underlying physiologic changes created by chronic pain. Research has revealed that addressing specific amino acid and nutrient deficiencies using the dietary intervention Theramine can reduce the inflammatory markers C- Reactive Protein, and Interleukin-6 while improving the production of the neurotransmitters responsible for dampening the frequency, and volume of pain signals moving throughout the central nervous system.

Safety Information
Theramine® is contraindicated in an extremely small number of patients with hypersensitivity to any of the nutritional components of Theramine.
ADVERSE REACTIONS: Ingestion of L-Tryptophan, L-Arginine, or Choline at high doses of up to 15 grams daily is generally well tolerated. The most common adversereactions of higher doses — from 15 to 30 grams daily — are nausea, abdominal cramps, and diarrhea. Theramine contains less than 1 gram per dose of amino acids however, some patients may experience these symptoms at lower doses. The total combined amount of amino acids in each Theramine capsule does not exceed 400 mg.
DRUG INTERACTIONS: Theramine does not directly influence the pharmacokinetics of prescription drugs. Clinical experience has shown that administration of Theramine may allow for lowering the dose of co-administered drugs under physician supervision.
