Listen guys, if everybody knew about these supplements, the world will be a much happier place.

Did you know that one in four people will experience depression at least once in their lives?

Inversions after negative adverbials

Not only that, but depression is the leading cause of disability in the world.

I personally have experienced depression for several years of my life and have spent several years researching, trying to figure out ways to overcome depression.

And what I'm going to tell you today is something called nutritional therapy, which I believe is one of the most powerful ways to overcome depression.

The food and supplements that you eat can relieve your depression.

Just giving your brain the food that it requires, the nutrients that it requires, can end depression in as short as 244 hours.

Now, I use the word supplement by its pure definition.

Something that is supplemental to the piece of the puzzle that is good health.

Supplements by themselves, they help, but it's not the total picture.

You have to combine supplements with good food, with exercise, and

with a good community of supportive friends around you.

Now listen, I'm not against pharmaceutical drugs.

I believe that we need to throw everything we at this problem of depression.

However, medications can come with some very serious side effects and I believe as a world we are over medicated and the problem of depression is not slowing down.

That tells you that we need different solutions to this problem of depression.

This is why lifestyle medicine, along with nutritional therapy and cognitive therapy should be considered as the first option when when battling depression.

Don't just believe any guy on YouTube with a muscle shirt.

Consult with multiple physicians before you change your routine.

So make sure you make wise decisions before doing any of the supplements that I'm going to say in this video.

Now all of these supplements are considered safe.

However, before you do any of the supplements, I'm going to tell you something that not a lot of people know.

You may think you are depressed, but you might just have low blood sugar.

You may think you are depressed and hopeless, but

you might have a hormonal or nutritional deficiency like vitamin D or or iron.

Did you know that low folic acid is a risk factor for depression and supplementing it can relieve depressive symptoms?

Did you know that 90% of people diagnosed with depression have depleted plasma zinc levels?

Did you know that 1.1 billion people are zinc deficient.

Depression is also a symptom of gluten intolerance.

And once you correct that, the symptoms of depression disappear.

See, you may think you have depression for no reason, but

if you look into the root, it might be caused by a nutritional deficiency.

Let's get into the 10 depression crushing supplements.

See, a lot of people in our world today suffer from chronic low grade depression, right?

Feeling flat, feeling tired and just blah all the time.

Well, tyrosine can really get you going in about 10 minutes.

You want to take tyrosine on an empty stomach and after 2pm and don't take too much because too much can over stimulate you.

See, did you know that violent criminals have lower serotonin levels than non violent ones?

Did you know the most common cause of panic attacks is serotonin deficiency?

See, St. John's Wort is a natural serotonin boosting remedy.

It also reduces people's angry feelings and helps people get to sleep.

Number three, same is a natural antidepressant.

It even made the COVID of Newsweek in 1999.

It is an antioxidant compound produced naturally in the body.

stick with it for at least one bottle's worth and it will relieve depressive symptoms.

Tryptophan is a supplement meant to be used in between meals over and over.

Studies show that removing tryptophan out of our diet increases depression, anger and even bulimia.

Tryptophan can raise serotonin by 200% and studies show it has power with PMS and fibromyalgia.

Rhodiola is an adaptogen meaning it helps your body adapt to stress.

It is also an anti fatigue herb and is very effective.

Rhodiola was used by arctic warriors, giving them energy to fight fight on the battlefield.

Take rhodiola in the morning and it gets the brain going within 20 minutes.

B6 is involved in over 80 reactions in the body.

A lot of people with depression have low levels of B6 because B6 is the last producing CO factor for serotonin.

A 2004 study published in Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics found that low levels of vitamin B6 causes depression as the vitamin contributes to the tryptophan.

Of the 140 participants, 13% of them were evaluated as depressed and vitamin B6 deficient.

I've taken B6 with methylfolate as a supplement and I can tell you this, it definitely works.

Make sure you take B6 in the morning on an empty stomach.

Number seven fish oil or eat fish about two to four times per week.

The Japanese eat much more fish than we do and they have much lower rates of depression than we do.

Now, whether that's correlation or causation is to be determined, but

fish oil has definitely been shown to increase mood levels.

British researchers studied a group of depressed patients who failed to recover after taking antidepressants for eight weeks.

the ones who also took Omega 3s 70% recovered compared to 25% who took only the antidepressants.

Make sure the fish oil you take says molecularly distilled on the back and has a 2 to 1 EPA to DHA ratio.

This has been shown to have the most antidepressant benefits.

Not to be confused with lithium carbonate, which can lead to a toxic buildup in your system.

Lithium orotate is a natural mood boosting mineral.

Ashwagandha Ashwagandha is an ancient Ayurvedic herb used to relieve stress and improve mood.

The word ashwagandha translates to smell of a horse.

It's a very weird thing, it kind of smells a little funky, but

it is said to give you the strength of a horse.

Also known as Indian ginseng, it is shown to reduce stress and helps control mood swings.

Like rhodiola, it is an adaptogen that helps the body adapt to stress and helps with feelings of nervousness.

In a 60 day study in 64 people with chronic stress, those in the group that supplemented with ashwagandha reported a 69% reduction in anxiety and insomnia on average, compared with 11% in the placebo group.
