RE: Do depression and anxiety always need medical treatment? I say NO! Part 1.
Nutritional supplements for the treatment of depression
Fish: Almost every research done on omega-3 fatty acids in recent years has had implications that these essential fatty acids have helped to treat depression.You do not have to consume fish just to be able to get omega-3 fatty acids, flaxseed oil, pumpkin seeds, walnuts are very rich in fatty acids Fruits and Vegetables: Fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and dietary fiber can be used to relieve symptoms of depression.
Strawberries, citrus fruits, bananas, melons, tomatoes, green leafy vegetables, broccoli, asparagus, Brussels cabbage are some of the fruits and vegetables you can consume for your physical and mental health.especially B6 and folic acid, contributed to the emotional state imbalance and alleviated the symptoms of depression.You can take vitamin B6 from cereals, potatoes, bananas, chickpeas, chicken, steak, trout, sunflower seeds, peanut butter and spinach
Yes, I agree that a wide range of foods can be helpful. I think essential fatty acids can be helpful, IF that is what is missing, BUT it still needs to be in the presence of saturated fats. Traditional tribes got over 90% of their fat calories from saturated fats. The EFAs were important, but only in small amounts. Thanks for adding to the info on the post.
