A holistic approach to depression?

Does anyone know of any natural way to treat depression? I tried many drugs …… Thank you! Karen!

Here are nine natural remedies and herbal used for depression. 1) St. John's Wort wort herb St. John's (Hypericum perforatum) has been used in folk medicine for sadness, anxiety, nervousness and insomnia. Currently, the results of more than 20 clinical trials suggest that St. John's wort works better than placebo and as effective as antidepressants for mild to moderate depression with fewer side effects. Studies suggest that grass San Juan is not effective for major depression. It is available in health food stores, pharmacies and online in the form of capsules, tablets, liquid extracts, or tea. St. John's Wort May last 4 to 6 weeks to see the full effects. Side effects May include dizziness, dry mouth, indigestion, and fatigue. Increases grass St. John of photosensitivity, with additional precautions taken to protect the skin and eyes from the sun. Although St. John's Wort seems to be reasonably safe when taken alone, can interfere with the effectiveness of prescription and nonprescription drugs as antidepressants, medicines to treat HIV infections and AIDS drugs to prevent organ rejection in transplant patients, and oral contraceptives. St. John's wort is not recommended for pregnant or lactating women, children or persons suffering from bipolar disorder, liver or kidneys. 2) Omega-3 fatty acids omega-3 fatty acids are a type of good fats necessary for normal brain function. Our body can not make omega-3 by their own ways, so they must obtain from our diet. Studies have linked depression with low intakes of Omega-3 fatty acids. In countries with high fish consumption, such as Japan and Taiwan, the rate of depression is 10 times lower in North America. Postpartum depression is less common. Studies suggest that omega-3, with antidepressants may be more effective than antidepressants alone. cold-water fish such as salmon, sardines and anchovies are the best dietary source of omega-3 fatty acids. But instead of eating more fish that contain mercury, PCBs and other chemical products, capsules of fish oil is considered a clean source of omega-3 fatty acids. Many companies filter their oil Fish for the elimination of these chemical substances. Capsules of fish oil sold in health food stores, pharmacies, and online. Most brands should be stored in the refrigerator for preventing oil from going rancid. In comparing the marks, the key elements for depression are active EPA and DHA. capsules of fish oil in May interact with anticoagulants such as warfarin and aspirin. Side effects May include indigestion and bleeding. Fish oil should not be taken 2 weeks before or after surgery. Fish oil can also cause a fishy taste. To avoid this, try taking fish oil just before meals. 3) SAM SAM-ee, pronounced "Sammy" is the abbreviation S-adenosyl-L-methionine. It is a chemical that occurs naturally in the human body and is thought to increase levels of neurotransmitters serotonin and dopamine. Several studies have shown SAM-e is more effective than placebo. In North America, SAM-e is available as an over-the-counter supplement in the food stores, pharmacies, and online. It is enteric coated for maximum absorption. Although one of the most expensive supplements, remains popular as a remedy for depression and osteoarthritis. Side effects can include nausea and constipation. 4) Folic Acid Folic acid, also called folic acid, vitamin B is often deficient in people who are depressed. Folic acid is found in leafy vegetables, other vegetables, fruits, beans and fortified cereals. It is a common vitamin deficiencies due to poor nutrition, but also because chronic conditions and various medications such as aspirin and birth control pills can also lead to deficiency. Besides food, acid Folic is also available as a supplement or as part of a complex of B vitamins Researchers at Harvard University have found that depressed with low folate levels do not respond well to folic acid antidepressents and taking supplement form can improve the effectiveness of antidepressants. 5) 5-HTP 5-HTP stands for 5-hydroxy. It occurs naturally in the body and is used to produce serotonin, a neurotransmitter. Although the use of 5-HTP as a supplement in theory, can increase levels of serotonin in the body, many experts believe that the evidence is insufficient to determine the safety 5-HTP. Should not be combined with antidepressants. 6) Reduce food intake Candy Candy temporarily make you feel good that the levels of Blood Sugar skyrockets, but may temper worse later, when he collapsed. Avoid caffeine and alcohol, caffeine and alcohol, both slow mood. Alcohol temporarily relaxes and caffeine increases energy, but the two effects are of short duration. Both can worsen mood swings, anxiety, depression and insomnia. Vitamin B6 Vitamin B6 is necessary to produce mood improvement serotonin and dopamine. Although vitamin B6 is rare, a deficiency limit in May occur in people who take oral contraceptives, hormone replacement therapy, and drugs for tuberculosis. Most People do not get enough magnesium magnesium in your diet. Good sources of magnesium are legumes, nuts, whole grains and green vegetables. Like vitamin B6, magnesium is necessary for serotonin production. Stress depletes magnesium. 7) Regular exercise is one of the most effective and inexpensive ways to improve mood. The exercise, aerobic exercise in particular, emissions Chemical mood in the brain and can reduce stress hormones. One of the best options for the bust of the blues is to take a walk outside every morning for at least 30 minutes five days a week. But the important thing is that you choose something you like and hold either go to the gym, enroll in dance classes, play tennis or gardening. 8) Light Therapy enough sun has been shown to be effective in seasonal mood changes that occur in the darkest months of winter. Exposure to light in the morning helps the body's sleep / cycle stimulation to function properly. The production of serotonin, a key brain chemical that affects our mood, is activated in the morning with exposure to light. During the winter, when there is less sunlight, serotonin levels fall in May, making us feel tired and subjects Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). One of the easiest ways to increase their exposure to light is to walk outside in the morning. Just make sure to use sunscreen to protect skin against ultraviolet rays. Another option is to use special lights that simulate daylight. Studies have shown to be effective. These lights can be found online. There are different types of boxes for light visors, which are generally used for 20-30 minutes per day. Watch the lights with a minimum of 3000 lux. Several experts estimate 10,000 lux. Although more expensive ranging from $ 150 to $ 500, which may be covered by insurance. 9) The use of other natural resources Floral Acupuncture Yoga
