Alvin,
Been over to your site, appreciate that we are much on the same path with neurotransmitter precursors, and should be talking about these protocol differences rather than polarizing the discussion through invective.
1. My intent was not to disrespect or present derogatory remarks, but to only point out differences. My simple observation at CorePsych: People want some reassurance on the front end with evidence of why we are proceeding down this treatment path. My experience in my office: urinary neurotransmitter testing information is predictive and useful – not always, but most often. We’ve been having some remarkable outcomes, and the front end reassurance – the only apparent procedural difference here, is most helpful.
2. Peer reviewed literature abounds on my site linked above. I have read the literature. I especially agree with Marty’s recognition of the interplay between dopamine and serotonin as you note in your comment. That interaction is squarely on my radar, and I have written about it for years, – see the end of this video on ADHD meds to understand how it works if just using psych meds alone – same interaction.
3. I will continue, as I have previously through purchase and review of Marty’s audio/slide training deck, to learn from Marty, respect his data, and look forward to a weekend with him/his team on day to more completely understand his opinion on these matters.
4. Kellerman is a highly motivated, well informed guy with an interesting appreciation of the confluence of immune, hormonal and neurotransmitter interactions, and has not been deported, – but is alive and well working hard on improving patient care.
I look forward to meeting you one day, and wish you well in your pursuit of best practice, and to working together down the road.

With regards to your derogatory remarks about neuroassist.com and a Dr. Marty Hinz and his approach to restoring neurotransmitter balance in the body by using balanced amino acids that target the deficiency and cross the blood-brain barrier, it would be truly appropriate if you would read the peer-reviewed literature yourself rather than just put the links to these papers on your website. Dr. Hinz’s publications are all peer-reviewed and have been subjected to a strict peer-reviewed guidelines and review of incredible amounts of data from a database.
They stand up against any challenge. The position of neuroscience has never had a peer review.
Not only that, but Dr. Kellerman has been deported from the united states for fraudulent behavior associated with his attempts at fostering his brand of science without any scientific basis.
You would do well to follow the peer-reviewed model. Pretesting for urinary monoamine has never been shown to have any correlation to this status in the body. Indeed it has been proven to be of absolutely no value. The only testing that has value is testing done under what is considered competitive inhibition where precursors cross the blood-brain barrier and generate production of increasing levels of serotonin and dopamine that can then be titrated and measured and adjusted by dosage to the ideal levels for function in the body.
Read the peer-reviewed literature and the publication from Johns Hopkins University, and in the publication from the University of Minnesota, both of which are heavily peer-reviewed.
