Review
Summary |
Traditional systems of healing from ancient cultures of the East have been popular in the United States since the 1960’s. People who are dissatisfied with traditional Western or allopathic medicine have turned toward the East seeking its clandestine wisdom and mind/body systems of wellness. Many patients/practitioners discover an enduring feeling of health and higher state of consciousness in the herbs, chants, meditation and yoga poses of the Buddhist, Hindu and Jain religious traditions.
From Chronic fatigue to feelings of sadness, bad temper to headaches, sleeplessness and anxiety, Americans are buying products in the form of tablets, caplets, tinctures, and salves that they think will make them feel better, feel whole, feel happy once again.
Happiness Support™, by Traditional Tibtan Healing is an herbal “medical supplement” that claims a 95% success rating among its customers. It “addresses the root causes of depression” and the thus, the manufacturer claims, has positive subsequent effects on the body.

“Happiness Support™ blends Eaglewood and Mesua ferrea in advertised “careful” proportions with six other regular and “rare authentic herbs.”
We were unable to find other ingredients specifically named on the Traditional Tibetan Healing website source.

| Ingredients in Focus |
|
A fairly obscure traditional Tibetan healing herb, Eaglewood or Aquilaria agollocha, is also called agarwood is mostly used in Eastern cultures as an incense. It may be akin to Aloe and could contain immune system boosting properties.
Mesua Ferrea has a place in Tibetan and Indian healing arts. Apparently its ability to heal is in the plant resin, despite it being mildly poisonous.

Happiness Support™ as directed at the website, is meant to be taken twice daily for up to two months. They claim that it begins to work on the first day and the benefits increase with each day of use.
The copy asserts, “it also acts as a heart tonic and helps with insomnia, loss of memory, ringing in the ears, poor circulation, and pains.” These symptoms, associated with mild depression, could indicate a more serious physical condition. Always consult your physician and/or a mental health professional.
“Quality, Purity and Potency” are promised by the Traditional Tibetan Healing Company. Their advertisers say that it has been used by the people of Tibet, a country of very high altitude in the Himalaya Mountains, for centuries “without interval”.

| Final Thoughts |
|
Ayurvedic, Chinese, Greek, Buddhist, and Tibetan systems of healing were all said to be consulted in the research and development of this particular formula. It is said to promote a sense of well-being, “lessening difficulties”, and allowing people to live without irritability or pain.
While this seems positive, after extensive research we have concluded that the addition of the mineral form of lithium would greatly benefit this type of supplement. Happiness Support™’ listed ingredients - Eaglewood and Mesua ferrea - are rather obscure, and the website does not provide enough information about their origin or reported effects to instill in us a sense of complete confidence in their safety or potency.
