Depression and Nutrition
I was stumbling (www.stumbleupon.com), and came across one of the best articles I have seen on the effects of depression and the connection to nutrition.
As most of you know, I have been diagnosed with depression last year. And let me tell you, I fought it tooth and nail because a) I felt at the time it was a “catch phrase” diagnosis, and b) I thought with positive mental attitude, anyone can overcome symptoms of depression.
Until it happened to me.

So my committment this month is to track my BTA test results daily, along with a food diary, so see what results my body has to nutrition and depression.
Along the way, I will quote from resources that even my doctor will probably poo-poo. (Had to get the poop reference in there SOME where. hehe)
I’ll also be including Natalia’s Detox Diet along with twice weekly colonics and once a week infrared sauna sweating. I will add a few supplements as my terrain indicates but nothing over the top, trying to keep it food focused.
For those interested in the data, I will provide links and resources. For those who just want to read the journey I’m currently on, then know that I share this information hestitantly — depression is not something colon therapists typically go through (at least I think), but how straying from a whole food diet landed me here is just part of the journey of “returning home.”
I’m looking forward to getting my testing station re-calibrated and will start on Monday next week.
Yeah!
