In 2008, researchers from the Global Neuroscience Initiative Foundation published an article in the Nutrition Journal entitled “Nutritional therapies for mental disorders”. In it, they outlined many of the connections between nutrition and mental health. Among these connections was the role amino acids can play in the occurrence and treatment of mood disorders.
Researchers recently published an article in International Journal of Science and Research that recommended these 5 natural ways for dealing with sleep disorders.
Well, actually, Truehope has two founders: Anthony Stephan and David Hardy. This is their story.
Anthony Stephan’s wife, Debora, had bipolar disorder and took her own life in January of 1994. Debbie’s father had done the same sixteen years earlier.
A year later, two of Anthony’s children were diagnosed with the most severe form of bipolar. Both had been given a variety of heavy medications, and they experienced serious side effects. Anthony was afraid he’d soon lose another loved one to the grip of bipolar disorder.
Last year, researchers at Arizona State University published a study in Nutrition & Metabolism, examining the relationship between the nutritional and metabolic status of children with autism and the severity of their conditions. The researchers compared their findings with a group of healthy children of similar age and gender.
The study illustrated that children with autism have many abnormalities in their nutritional and metabolic status:
[V]ariations in the severity of autism are strongly associated with the nutritional and metabolic biomarkers investigated in this study.
We had someone come to our blog last week after searching for the phrase “does truehope work”. I thought this would be a great topic for a blog post.
To start off, this question is fraught with uncertainty and apprehension. For the majority of people diagnosed with a mood disorder—such as depression, bipolar, anxiety, and so on—the only solution for managing the disorder is medication. This generally includes psychotropic and SSRI medication. They believe this is the only solution because it is ingrained into them early on and the media strengthens the connections between mental health and medication.
Did you know Truehope’s flagship product, EMPowerplus—a micronutrient formula of 36 vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and amino acids designed to improve mental well-being—has been studied by 30 independent researchers at 13 universities worldwide?
This makes EMPowerplus the most researched micronutrient formula in the world.
Since 1996, scientists and doctors in clinical practice have studied the effects of EMPowerplus on mental disorders such as bipolar disorder, ADHD, stress, and anxiety. Some research has even studied its effects on people with autism. Results have been very encouraging and significant.

Last week, the US FDA announced at least two people had thought they had purchased Adderall, a popular ADHD drug, from a website.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration on Tuesday said it has learned of at least two cases in which people received counterfeit versions of the 30-milligram dose of the drug with the wrong active ingredients — ones that treat acute pain, not attention problems. The fake pill is ineffective and may be harmful, the FDA said.
The great thing about ordering directly from Truehope is that you rest assured knowing you are buying EMPowerplus,
Did you know that it has been nearly 100 years since researchers first discovered a link between bacteria and neuroendocrine hormones? In the decades since the first discovery in 1929, researchers have been able to find stronger links between the bacteria that live in our intestines and mental health.
In a study published in the journal BioEssays last year, researchers noted that some bacteria living in our digestive system actually produce neurochemicals that are found in our central nervous system.
In a study published in the journal Neurology earlier this year, researchers noted that diets that regulary include foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids may be able to help middle-aged and elderly adults slow the mental decline that leads to dementia.
Research subjects with high blood levels of omega-3’s were more likely to perform well during tests measuring mental functioning, and they experienced less age-related brain shrinkage.
Omega-3 fatty acids occur in fish (e.g. salmon, mackerel, anchovy, sardine,
From time to time, we receive questions from both customers and otherwise interested persons regarding our use of cyanocobalamin as the primary form of vitamin B12 in EMPowerplus. Questions arise mainly because of concern for the potential toxicity of cyanocobalamin, considering its connection to cyanide. It is important for us to publicly address this concern.
The first thing we must know is that microorganisms are the only true source of B12. Any B12 found in plants is because of bacteria found on or in those plants.
Last month, researchers in New Zealand published a study in The New Zealand Journal of Psychology showing that Truehope EMPowerplus, a micronutrient formula, reduced levels of anxiety, depression, and stress in survivors of a 7.1-magnitude earthquake that took place near Christchurch in September 2010.
Researchers measured anxiety, depression, and stress levels among 33 participants—16 were taking EMPowerplus and 17 were not—before the earthquake, a week or so after the earthquake, and two weeks or so after the earthquake.
