Review
Summary |
Avea Mood is another product from the company NutraMedix that is intended to treat symptoms of depression. The company makes several liquid extracts that are meant to help individuals achieve a more balanced emotional and mental state of mind, and feel more physically relaxed.
A number of products are currently popping up on the markets that are intended to help individuals who suffer from depression, stress, anxiety or chronic mood swings. Many of them contain natural ingredients, such as herbs or minerals, as opposed to the chemical drugs that generally require a prescription; we will take a closer look at this formula to determine how effective it is for consumers.
|
| Ingredients at a Glance |
|
Avea Mood contains Curcuma longa, more commonly known as turmeric, an herb traditionally used in Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine for its anti-inflammatory properties.
No other ingredients are listed in the products formula. We will take a closer look at the properties of turmeric below.
|
| Ingredients in Focus |
|
Turmeric, as mentioned, has been used traditionally as an anti-inflammatory and also has been used to treat digestive disorders, skin diseases and liver problems.
According to the website for Avea Mood, studies on mice have shown its formula to have an anti-depressant effect. Apparently, both dopamine and serotonin levels were increased in these animal studies. It does not appear that any human studies have been conducted, however.

| Lifestyle |
|
Similarly to other products on the market that come in the form of a liquid tincture, five to ten droplets should be placed in a glass and mixed with four ounces of water. It is recommended to take the product three times a day by the website.
Individuals who do not enjoy the taste of liquid tinctures may wish to seek out oral supplements that come in tablet form as an alternative. We particularly like products that contain the mineral lithium, as it has been shown to help elevate the mood and also have a calming effect. This has been shown to be particularly effective when combined with the substance Orotate.

| Final Thoughts |
|
We have no doubt that maintaining a balanced state of mind, emotionally speaking, can help individuals lead a more fulfilling life, and appreciate products that aim to help them achieve this state. However, with all of the options currently available, we do not feel that this is the best choice for consumers.
In our opinion, consumers would be better served by choosing products that contain a combination of the mineral lithium and the mineral carrier Orotate to reach this balanced state of mind. By gradually increasing the body’s levels of lithium, studies have shown that the mood can be lifted, without any side effects. We recommend seeking products that have received a number of positive responses from satisfied customers to ensure the most effective results.
