In schizophrenia, immune activation upregulates pro-inflammatory cytokines (e.g., IFN-, IL-1, TNF-), which activate indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) via both IFN- receptor (IFN-R)-dependent and independent pathways (e.g., synergistic action of TLR4, IL-1R, TNF-R) (215)
Also, a small non-randomized study 15 in two older adults treated with ALC (2 g/day for 12 weeks), reported a decrease in HDRS scores from 15 to 0 and from 20 to 3 by week 12 and compared outcomes with six non-depressed controls
Here is a week-by-week protocol that combines the strategies from this guide into a practical action plan
