- Omega 3 Fatty Acid Found In Oily Fish And Vitamins Are Natural Remedies For Depression
When I asked him about the harsh antidepressant that I'd been put on, my psychiatrist told me that there was no natural remedy for depression. He said that natural remedies for depression were fiction. They were created by ruthless con artists to make money off of people at the expense of their health. I had been inclined to believe him, because he had already treated several of my relatives. He was well known in his fields as an excellent psychiatrist. Nonetheless, I couldn't quite believe that there were no natural remedies for depression. I decided to look into it myself.
It turns out that he was right and he was wrong. Perhaps antidepressant medications provided the most effective means of treating depression, however there were naturopathic remedies available. There was St. John's wort, of course, as well as 5-HTP. Both of these could act as mood enhancers, but neither of them were tightly controlled by the FDA to ensure safety, or as strong as the traditional antidepressants. Herbal remedies for depression seemed to be a dead end, however I did find out some interesting things.
