RENEWTRIENT (Butyrolactone)
The natural alternative in physical and mental
health
Butyrolactone to Alleviate the
Symptoms of Depression
Dr. Kenneth Cochrane

Abstract: Eighteen volunteers who met DSM-IV criteria for Major
Depressive Disorder were measured for degree and severity of
depression
(subjective and objective). Measurement was conducted both before
and
after the initial administration of RenewTrient and at monthly
intervals for a four month period. Volunteers were maintained at a
standard dosage of RenewTrient during this period. Concurrently, a
healthy group of ten volunteers were studied under the same
conditions
and administered the same measurements. Healthy volunteers did not
meet
criteria for Major Depressive Disorder or any other Psychiatric
Disorder. Results of the study indicate profound positive changes
(78%)
in symptomatology and measured pathology upon initial
administration of
RenewTrient and over the course of the study. Participants
reported
improved mood (78%); improvement in sleep patterns (70%);
improvement
in quality of sleep (76%); improvement in sexual feelings (44%);
decrease in anxiety (88%) and increased feelings of well-being
(82%).
Several additional and unexpected effects observed by the
researcher
during the study were noted. These effects were not controlled for
and
are therefore anecdotal: (1) subjects who were previously unable
to
discuss pertinent issues (grief, loss, early trauma) were able to
readily discuss and work with these issues while being maintained
on
RenewTrient; (2) subjects were more able to work with
visualization,
meditation and relaxation techniques during the time they were
taking
RenewTrient; (3) trance induction (for hypnotherapy) was more
easily
accomplished in subjects who were originally resistant to this
mode of
treatment. Healthy volunteers differed greatly from the depressed
volunteers in both the subjective effect of RenewTrient and the
experienced changes in affect and mood. Most healthy controls
reported
somnolence (92%) as the major subjective effect of RenewTrient.
These
results strongly suggest that the active components of
RenewTrient,
although beneficial to the general population, are particularly
beneficial to individuals suffering from the symptoms of
depression.
Because of the small sample size and the short duration of the
study,
suggestions for further research are offered.
