Description

Today I want to cover five nutritional deficiencies that can lead to depression.

Your DNA can influence your mood and cause you to become susceptible to nutritional deficiencies, even if you’re on a fairly good diet.

Vitamin deficiencies that may cause depression:
1. Vitamin B12
The best forms of vitamin B12:
• Methylcobalamin
• Hydroxy B12

2. Folate (vitamin B9)
The best form of folate:
• Methylfolate

3. Vitamin D3

4. Vitamin B1 (thiamine)

5. Zinc

Try taking vitamin B12 and folate together and see if that gives you relief. If it doesn’t, you could move on to the other vitamins.

It’s a good idea to try taking the last three vitamins one at a time, with a few days in between, rather than all at once. This way, you have a better idea of which one you could be deficient in.

Other natural ways to improve depression:
1. Take probiotics
2. Do intermittent fasting
3. Get on the Healthy Keto® diet
4. Get out in the sun
5. Exercise
