What if... nutrition could treat mental illness?

[staceybarrett]

I’ve just been accepted to Brescia University College in London Ontario Canada. I am super excited for this new journey in life. I have Hereditary Hemochromatosis and mental health issues have been a part of my life since I was born. My father ended his earth life when I was 13 years old; which I believe was due to undiagnosed Hereditary Hemochromatosis and lack of appropriate mental health treatment strategies. Nutrition is my passion and mental health and genetics has touched my life in profound ways. I know my degree will be a combination of nutrition, food and psychology with a focus on Hereditary Hemochromatosis. I just found my academic guru in Dr. Rucklidge.

As a bipolar person I can attest to micronutrients being used as a solution to helping overcome mental illness.
My story is of survival and yes high levels of micronmicronutrients is just one tool that I use daily to help my balance mental state.

Extraordinary that these ideas are considered to be outside of the ordinary. The efficacy of Keto Diet & Niacin ( for example) are well understood, and should be part of the ‘standard of care’ for depression and many other neurological issues.

Title of the video says, What if Nutrition could treat Mental illness? But this good Dr. here talks about replacing one pill with another. She is talking about nutrition that comes in a pill. Basically saying, taking multi- vitamin pills with minerals and vitamins is good for you. Even though yrs of research has been inconclusive, not able prove that taking minerals and vitamins in a pill form is beneficial for you. So disappointed. Sure, there are ways for us to think of food as medicine and eat nutritious foods. I think chinese or japanese cultures do that. Asking people to take a pill or many pills to cure or prevent illnesses is not very creative.

Well I suffered from a very sévère dépression and was eating very healthily, adding superfood etc... I went downhill anyway. No drugs, no alcohol. Thanks for anti depressants. When you finally find the right ones.

Thank you so much!
Excellent lecture!

[sirbaronvoncount]

This has been acceptable fact in Chinese medicine for centuries

So, in other words, at least take a high quality multi vitamin, eat lots of salads and cut out the junk food.
