Question: I lead a very hectic life. Between taking care of my family and my high-pressure job, I have found myself becoming extremely stressed and irritable and often even feeling like crying for no reason at times. I’m worried that I?m going to become sick or depressed if this carries on and have considered seeing my G.P. to discuss options. Before I do this though, I’d like to know about a natural stress reliever called Lumiday. I know it contains St. John’s Wort which I’ve heard is a good anti-depressant. Is it worth trying this brand’
Answer: There are a number of reasons that consumers may wish to try herbal, alternative remedies over prescription medications, but usually it is due to the fear of drug dependency or simply wanting to treat the symptoms naturally. Whatever the reason, it does appear that people are becoming more stressed in everyday life which, if unchecked, can certainly lead to low immunity and mood. While an over-the-counter remedy like Lumiday may not be the best choice for severe depression, it is designed to ‘lift’ the mood, relieving stress and anxiety. The product is also designed to help curb the cravings for carbohydrates and sugar that often accompany a depressed mood (and which results in a weight gain that can further depress the sufferer).
The natural anti-depressant St. John’s Wort is included in the Lumiday formula, but it is the inclusion of several other substances such as 5-HTP, L-Theanine, Ashwagandha root and Rhodiola Rosea that work synergistically with the herb to provide the overall relief. The main purpose of this and similar brands is to address the Serotonin imbalance. Serotonin is an essential part of feeling balanced, unstressed and happy, which is why a reduction in the substance leads to feelings of sadness. 5-HTP in particular is an important part of Serotonin production and is also combined in this formula with several B-vitamins to calm the nervous system.
A product such as Lumiday will take time to reach its full effect but should eventually return the user to a more balanced, less anxious feeling of well being. However, if depressed symptoms continue, it is advised that the consumer consults with a health care provider, as the problem may need professional treatment.

My wife began taking this supplement and just after 15 days she faced huge skin reactions all over the body. However, it might be exceptional but she stops consuming the pills. Lumiday is an expensive product and we don’t expect this kind of treatment from it. She was even not able to sleep all over the night. With this post, I just want to share her experience, there is no aim to personally attack on the manufacturer, but it really hurts after expecting and paying a lot for this.
I paid $55.99 for my depression problems. What a rip off! I know that Lumiday is clinically tested for its effectiveness but unfortunately, it did not satisfy me. Also it is really an expensive product as compared to others that I had ever used. I think I have to try something different that really works for me.
This is a nice product and I like how it helped me to get rid of major depression. From past one year I was suffering from major depression since I lost my job. I was feeling like a failure. But Lumiday helps me to get relief from depression issues. It is one of the best product that I ever used before.
From 8 months my daughter was suffering from major depression problems due to her divorce. She attempted suicide 3 months back. I tried variety of supplements to get her out from depression but nothing worked. One fine day I heard about Lumiday and decided to order it. Today she is very happy in her life. A big- big thanks to Lumiday!
I got divorced a year back and I was under depression. I used many anti depression pills but have never noticed any desired result. But now I’m so happy in my life and enjoying every movement of life. And all the credit goes to lumiday only. It helps to get rid of depression problem.
