Summary: Save a buck! Or not...
Comment: OK, here's the deal: I go to my health food store (which I try to love and support) and find my SAMe.... And it costs me $10 more than the same product ordered through Amazon! Bummer! But I want to support my local retailer.... What a problem! My solution: buy the cheaper essentials (chocolate and the other basic food groups) locally and get my chemicals online... At least when I'm sure what I'm getting is the same product.

OH, and yes, SAMe does make me feel better. It seems to help my joint aches and (REALLY) improves my mood (no more chronic mild depression... well... at least not till I watch the evening news!). No anxiety seen with 200 mg or 400 mg taken once a day. I do take it in the morning since poking around on the internet suggests that it might interfere with sleeping and it's supposed to work better at bypassing the stomach acids when taken on an empty stomach.

Summary: Good Value
Comment: I bought this brand to compare it with the Life Fitness brand that I bought from CVS. This is as good as the Life Fitness brand for a lower price. It is also packed in blister foil for maximum protection which is not mentioned in the description.

In my opinion, if you have tried an expensive brand of SAMe and it helped you, then the Source Naturals brand is probably just a good for much less. At least this was my expereince.

I am not in the medical profession but I read that it is recommended to take a B complex vitamin supplement with SAMe, and since this brand does not contain B complex unlike the Life Fitness brand, then you may want to buy B complex separately.

Summary: Great quality, but SAMe did nothing for me
Comment: This was a hard product to rate. Source Naturals is great quality, so if SAMe works for you, then this is a 5-star product. However, SAMe did not work for me, so SAMe as a general supplement gets 0 stars.
