Are you experiencing the winter blues? About 75% of people who get seasonal depression are female. This is because lowered vitamin D can lead to lowered estrogen. This can affect a woman on many different levels. 

Symptoms of the winter blues:
• Lowered mood
• Loss of pleasure
• Despair 
• Lethargy 
• You can’t get out of bed 
• Weight gain 

Natural remedies for the winter blues:
1. Take vitamin D3 (minimally 10,000 IUs) 
2. Light therapy (this could be as effective as Prozac for seasonal depression)

I stopped winter blues this winter after being on D3 ... yep I knew it!! I had no idea. First time in 26 years that winter was just a thang... and did not hamper me. Normally I get morbidly depressed in the winter.

I have been afflicted with this since I was a young boy. I always called it the winter blues. I would frequently have to put on my coat and just go stand outside on a sunny day. About 6 years ago I bought a full spectrum light and that has made a huge difference in my moods, year-round.

As an aside, I find the acronym for Seasonal Affective Disorder to be rather amusing; SAD, lol.

Thank you! The light therapy link doesn’t work though.

perfect upload timing at the very end of march!

I'm quite the opposite, I come to life in winter and tend to hibernate in front of a fan in summer. But then again, we tend only get 2 seasons here, hot and not so hot

I'm gonna become a light therapist. Once my patient comes in I have them sit or lay on the couch and I will turn the light on for an hour and charge them to come back every week.😀

I suffer from winter blues. Thanks for sharing your information and I will give it a try.

Thank you, I will try it, living in Russian Siberia with little sunshine makes life depressive for 9 out 12 months

Spend more time outside and mood gets better very fast!

The light therapy works amazingly! I will up my vit D3 next year. I wasn't taking enough this year. Thanks!

[smashmode]

Your vitamin D/K2 supplements helped me through this winter

Link says Light Therapy page doesn't exist - can't find it. Offers something about dogs, instead :-/ (Must be something good, or they wouldn't hide it ;)

[thankyoudoris]

Light box link doesn't work Dr. Berg.

[Joyful-lwky]

Great video. Probably could have used this earlier this year. I’ve been anxious for nicer weather but now spring is here and we’ve had some sunny weather days definitely helps the mood!! Doing some inside gardening helps too in preparation for warmer months!!

[SweetandMellow]

Dr.Berg, please share a link that works for the light therapy lamp. Stay safe and well. Thank you. 🙏

[rhondaickowski]

Bummer! I really wanted to see what light therapy device you use from Amazon but the link does not work.

[ReturnToNature]

Page can’t be found on the link for the light therapy. Thanks for this info! Winter in Michigan combined with covid quarantine has really taken its toll. Grateful spring is almost here.

[dottymerchant]

oops...link not found. Its grey, cloudy day - definitely need light therapy

[KETODiamond]

Think I'm feeling the dark grey days mood. Its been gross and rainy for weeks in NC
