This is all great advice, but the best remedy for depression and anxiety is still exercise. Any kind will work from a slow jog up to lifting weights. Most of the time, just getting out of the house works wonders but elevating your heart rate for 20 minutes or more will have a huge positive impact on your well-being.
@@erinloo8921 Very nice. Reduce negative thoughts. Your breathing is closely related to the brain [mind] and gives good relief from stress-anxiety. To relax sit on a chair or lie down, neck straight, eyes closed and observe the sensations of your incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for 5-10-15 minutes or more. Don’t fight your thoughts. With daily practice the mind will relax. No deep breathing needed. Do the practice without any expectations. When taking a walk, at office, in school, when reading, before sleep etc observe your breath sensations. Like me, make this a lifetime daily habit to have a good life. Reduce negative social media and avoid constipation as it affects the mind instantly. Best wishes--Counsellor.
@@bryantneely9122 exercise is well known to improve depression but when you are in deep depression it can be hard to exercise. I feel walking is one of the best things. Are you living somewhere where you could go walking everyday??
In my experience, nutritional deficiency was the main cause of my depression. It was awful indeed. But you can get thru it. I haven’t watched this video yet, but in my research I found the most ‘cell friendly’ nutritional sources are from our edible weeds that grow for free in the forests. From the ground directly into your mouth- before the enzymes die off. No pesticides, nor chemical fertilizers, weren’t picked a month ago and stored in warehouses to be transferred hundreds of miles away, weren’t selectively bred over the past hundred years for size and taste at the cost of its nutritional content, and like I said are totally free. So watching what you put into your body, highly nutritional plants, minimizing if not eliminating processed sugar, and what you allow into your ears. Be careful what you habitually watch on social media. Purposely start watching those ‘kindness’ videos. Stay strong sweetie. You got this
@@Amg13055 Eggs, bacon, mozzarella, brocoli wilted spinach with hummus, black beans, kidney beans, olives, fruits, veggies, full fat milk, cream or soy milk, green tea, water, tea no soda, onions, cut bread, full fat butter all the above enjoy grains have whole grains, only wholewheat bread if you have it and have anything you fancy in moderation after having a few days detox and a healthy few weeks eat less so you experience hunger and an occasional fast is also great for cognition. Pizza can be pretty healthy too if its a stone baked thin base, wholewheat or a cauliflower crust lots of tomatoes, on tomato puree mozzarella shredded, garlic, black olives maybe even some bacon or steak. Eating to lower your blood sugar and avoiding sugary stuff will help so much but you have to seriously have zero or minimal alcohol and not more than the guidelines suggest, as it really wrecks health and mental well being.
@@mb8kr Tea has theanine, catechins, polyphenol and antioxidants it's good for you but it Lee he's calcium from bones and nutrients like vit c so don't consume it with meals half an hour before or after food. Tea drinkers who take it with or withour full fat milk have shown they develop less types of certain arthritis maybe osteoporosis. But it's not good to drink it along with anything nutitious that you eat. I wonder is that why they invented biscuits and cake! 🤣😋
Milk, turkey, eggs, and sunflower seeds gave me severe depression. Eggs also gave me asthma attacks, and sunflower seeds also gave me severe back spasms. I was finally cured of all this when I was given three courses of antibiotics by a Chinese doctor who said I had bad gut bacteria. I took them and have not had any depression since. Now I can eat those foods without any problems. I love Chinese doctors!
where is the clinic of that chinese doctor? does he cater on lone consultation? I am suffering from anxiety, o don't have the appetite to eat. i don't even want to get oit of bed, inhave chest pain , difgiculty of breathing and severe dizziness. I am no longer effective in my work. Please give that doctors information, clinic and clinic hrs. I hope the consultation and medicines are not pricey. Thank you !
Journaling is also amazing for your mental health. It allows you to meditate, reflect, visually see any problem you're dealing with and solve it (like a math problem) and most importantly clear your head. I know it ain't food but just wanted to share. Wishing everyone healthy mental health 🥰
I eat them all. But you should also spend time in the nature, if you can, get on the water, that's the best! That's how I recharge my batteries and stay happy. Something about the ocean that lifts my spirit... After spending a day on the water, fishing, cruising and swimming, I FEEL ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!!

@@carolferguson19 …nothing is giving to you on a silver platter, unless you’re rich (but I’m not here talking about economic status, of course). Hard tasks were not meant for the weak in mind, body & spirit. Having faith also helps among those 3 things mentioned above…..so go ahead and just try. What do you have to lose?

Several years ago was on a very low fat diet and ended up with very low mood. Now I eat avocados, nuts and seeds, olive oil (thought this would've been on the list), beans, spinach, in fact all the stuff on this list except mushrooms which I detest. I don't eat pasta, rice or wheat only small amount gluten free bread and white and sweet potatoes. Oily fish like Sardines and salmon helped me. The experts say stabilise your blood sugar and your mood will stabilise also. I agree with this. The first thing to suffer if you don't eat the right foods is your brain/mood.
I've added blueberry kefir to my diet and I've already come off of one of my anti-depressants. I have also been recently incorporating all the foods mentioned and my doctor gave me the green light this weekend to go off the last anti-depressant. Your diet really does play a major role in your overall mental, emotional and physical health.

just wanted to share a little FYI regarding the Dark Chocolate as it's not all the same.. In order to actually gain any benefits from eating Dark Chocolate it has to be 70% Cocoa or higher so make sure you don't buy regular dark chocolate bars as the rarely even contain cocoa which is the healthy ingredient they are talking about in this video. Take Care oxo
I was so depressed as a vegetarian that I faithfully ate my nuts and dark chocolate every day. But, the only thing the nuts did was make me bloated, since they're mainly indigestible. Chocolate did put me into a mini-fantasy world because it activates opioid receptors, so that was nice. But, it's also addictive,. plus the polyphenols block fat burning, which is the real way to beat depression. Also, both nuts and dark chocolate contain a lot of arginine, and arginine (versus lysine in fish, dairy, and meat) causes viruses, bacteria, and parasites to grow, which is linked to depression and anxiety. The only way I got out of depression was to eat an ancestral foods low carb/high fat diet-it feeds the brain, instead of feeding pathogens.
My body and mind function significantly better now that I'm regularly eating vegetables and eating less empty calories and sugar. Roasted veggies are a game changer - they taste SO GOOD and are so good for you!!
Lovely video!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Depression and anxiety sucks, ANYONE HERE READING THIS “DONT EVER GIVE UP, THINGS WILL GET BETTER! BETTER DAYS ARE COMING, sending hugs to everyone who can use one right now 🫶
Anybody reading this go TH-cam: are you a good person by living waters...watch the whole 5 min video it will literally cure your biggest problems if you apply the answer
I was always overweight since 8yrs old, I coped with food when I'm depressed, anxious which led to insomnia, which obviously led to obesity as lack of sleep raises cortisol and that makes u eat n crave junk. I have been battling this demon ever since and having my own family, I am working out, eating healthy, destressing myself, staying healthy to be here for my son, during my pregnancy I had diabetes and anemia which doesn't help. I am on a keto low carb diet because of this.
If am starting to feel low I mix up some tinned sardines with half avocado and tsp ground linseeds, salt and pepper and some lemon juice. Have with some boiled potatoes or gluten free crackers. Then a cuppa tea and some dark chocolate and walnuts. Great! ❤ from Scotland
Great advice overall. Leafy greens are just as delicious as any other food. It's only people who don't know how to cook that think they're boring. Cooked the right way and they are delicious.
There have been times where I’ve been feeling a bit down. A handful of walnuts has an amazing effect on picking up my mood a couple of hours after eating them.
For me depression is a case of some days are better than others but I push through the bad ones like tomorrow is another day I like to eat apples mushrooms pumpkin seeds walnuts avocados for anxiety and my depression days they seem to help me loose that uptight feeling in my head I get with stressful situations sometimes I have no control over
Eliminating dairy was the best thing I did for my health. I went whole food plant-based, but saw the best results after eschewing dairy. It had been poisoning me my entire life. I came off my inflammation and anti-depressent meds.
I love berries...& walnuts..I eat them daily...still get down sometimes tho ...wonder what I'd be like without them then lol!! Thanks for info ...great site, love your work.
👍 I'm glad you mentioned blood sugar. When mine is low; I am miserable, mind races, can't sleep, hurt all over, etc. My mother was type 1 diabetic (brittle). She used candy (i.e. $100,000 bars - favorite) to raise her blood sugar. That doesn't work for me; makes me worse. Thanks for the good advice.
Sounds like your hypoglycemic. Research it. You need a high protein diet with some complex carbs. Treat sugar like the plague as well as caffeine. When sugar enters your body your pancreas goes on overkill and brings your sugar level down. Everytime you do this, result is the same. Please research it. Good luck. Also, your adrenal glands take a you know what kicking. Adrenals get overstressed.
@@leconboy1061 that sugar is white sugar with black strap molasses and that's how it gets it's brown colour. Stevia is supposed to be neutral, does not affect spike in sugar level. Allegedly ok for both diabetes and hypoglycemia. I think if one is really sensitive, allergic to sugar, maybe the body treating it's sweetness the same as regular sugar. A hypoglycemic can go into a doughnut store and the smell alone could trigger a reaction.
@@leconboy1061 yes, wether your hypoglycemic or not. Treat sugar like the plague. Your body will thank you. Try to do a 2 or 3 day fast. Once you come off it, ingest some sugar. See how you feel. See how your mind reacts to it. Even honey, I was told by my naturopath to stay clear of it, benefits and all. Actually as you come off your fast, eat a nice doughnut. See how you feel.
My psychiatrist has me working out one hour a day. He told me to eat lots of nuts, instead of sugary foods. So, if I substitute 600 calories of nuts instead of eating 800 calories of cakes and cookies, I would do better. Apples are delicious. I’m going to eat more of them. I love blueberries and have some small pancakes for breakfast with cooked berries. I buy small portions of pancakes and watch the calories. I do love Greek yogurt. I eat dark chocolate almonds. They are delicious. I still can’t get rid of the depression and anxiety that I suffer. But, I do what the doctor says.
Do these along with PATIENCE. I used to drink coffee everyday and was very obese but after having muscle spasms I learned there is no quick fixes but it takes time like a month to see improvements..
I love all the foods mentioned here (except pumpkin seeds) and have been eating most of them for all of my adult life, but it’s important to mention that many are expensive - walnuts, fresh berries, cherry tomatoes and avocado, for example. I can’t afford them at present.
@@mariawerner8447 Are tomatoes, mushrooms and apples expensive in Albania? I'm asking because I live in Hungary and they are relatively cheap here. I can also forage for mulberries and wild blackberries close to my place. When they are is season, of course.
My favorite is walnuts wish I could find a walnut tree I ask my husband all the time but he forgets to them for me they so yummy I like mushrooms I like them all except the cherry tomatoes, I don't eat those. Thanks for the video great advice. I've been suffering with both anxiety and depression all my life.
Due to severely debilitating depression I sometimes eat till my brain becomes numb and feels no pain or discomforting thoughts about my past life experiences. People in my country are so sick and terrible as I became a victim survivor of their extreme animosity cruelty and enmity and hostility. But I managed to survive against all odds in situations and circumstances where so many others perished and passed away in silence and extreme anguish and disappointment towards the extremely cruel monstrosity of the majority community people of my terrible country / nation . .
If you are from india !! How Indian society is cruel !! I live in America born in india feels like Indian society is more tolerant and more cultured as compared to any country
@@ankitasingh9603 India is the gang rape capital of the world where honour killings take place on a daily basis night or day . When an American Boy grows up he aspires to be a doctor to heal the sick people and when an indian hindu boy grows up he aspires to be a gang rapist. Shocking but absolutely true reality of the hindu india mindset. Sorry if you feel disappointed with the truth. Sugar coated sweet white lies always seem more appealing to our two faced personalities of Jekyll and Hyde. Truth is always extremely bitter and ugly to accept in a world of fake illusions created by the television media and sinfully wicked bollywood industry fraudsters on ott and cinema. Everyone is not Mahatma Gandhi. Let Truth Prevail. Jai Hind. Jai Jawaan Jai Kisaan. Peace And Love. Love All. No discrimination please. We are all equals here.
I eat all of these...daily...and still having extreme bouts...I really think hormones have more to do with it than diet..especially going through menopause.
Good day! Mr. Brainy Dose. Very informative helpful tips to strenghthen our health to stay in good condition despite of sometimes we are facing difficulties.
Your video is very good, very informative. But you forget olive oil, carbage in natura, sweet potato, banana and other fruits and vegetables that are very healthy, very anti-inflamatory. Greetings from Brazil!

great video. These are all the foods I like best and I am usually in a very positive mood. Add in walking or jogging and lift some weights but beware of sugar- it will destroy you and it is all manufactured foods
I love chocolate but it has to be without sugar I eat some of the others also not that I like then all but there are good for me thank you for your help
How disappointed I am to KNOW this NOW😒 I lost my entire 20's. I just didn't eat well. Its remarkable! Avocados, walnuts, magnesium etc, etc, ETC! It's so simple..
@@laurievanzon2126 Look for Melissa essential oil, it is the essential oil of lemon balm, its expensive because it takes so many leaves to make a few drops, but its worth it.
There’s also Lemon Balm herb tea-Traditional Medicinals. My fave is Wissotzky Melissa and Verbena tea. It’s been life changing for me. Helps prevent overproduction of cortisol which many of us w depression and anxiety have. Highly recommend. Best wishes!
Allergic warning nuts, dairy products, wheat products and gluten can all make you very sick check before going on any diet ,a lot of these foods are really good just underlined the dangers.
I used to think avocados were a good source of omega 3, but they are actually not that high in omega 3 (still very healthy fats). Better sources of omega 3 are freshly ground flax or chia seeds.

I was always overweight since 8yrs old, I coped with food when I'm depressed, anxious which led to insomnia, which obviously led to obesity as lack of sleep raises cortisol and that makes u eat n crave junk. I have been battling this demon ever since and having my own family, I am working out, eating healthy, destressing myself, staying healthy to be here for my son, during my pregnancy I had diabetes and anemia which doesn't help. I am on a keto low carb diet because of this.
S tier yap
If am starting to feel low I mix up some tinned sardines with half avocado and tsp ground linseeds, salt and pepper and some lemon juice. Have with some boiled potatoes or gluten free crackers. Then a cuppa tea and some dark chocolate and walnuts. Great!

Great advice overall. Leafy greens are just as delicious as any other food. It's only people who don't know how to cook that think they're boring. Cooked the right way and they are delicious.
Exactly, I like green leafy vegetables if it's cooked the right way, even simple recipes of spinach is good, i like jute leaves
There have been times where I’ve been feeling a bit down. A handful of walnuts has an amazing effect on picking up my mood a couple of hours after eating them.
Thank you
I love nuts with sunflower seeds and pumpkin....
For me depression is a case of some days are better than others but I push through the bad ones like tomorrow is another day I like to eat apples mushrooms pumpkin seeds walnuts avocados for anxiety and my depression days they seem to help me loose that uptight feeling in my head I get with stressful situations sometimes I have no control over
Bible says be anxious for nothing but let your worries come before God and he will help
Eliminating dairy was the best thing I did for my health. I went whole food plant-based, but saw the best results after eschewing dairy. It had been poisoning me my entire life. I came off my inflammation and anti-depressent meds.
How about milk?thanks
Milk is a dairy product.
I love mushrooms I'll have to eat them all the time for my anxiety and depression
Regular mushrooms or Psilocybin?
It's interesting that walnuts look kind of like brains but also aid in brain health!
Thanks for sharing I have anxiety very bad I really love berries in leafy vegg in pumpkin seed
I love avocado, nuts, mushrooms green leafy and apples
Trying to always eat these fruits and vegs
I love berries...& walnuts..I eat them daily...still get down sometimes tho ...wonder what I'd be like without them then lol!! Thanks for info ...great site, love your work.
Trouble will come, But be of good Cheer!!!
HalleluYah
Blue Berries and plain yogurt is my favorite snack😋 not mixed already at the store
👍 I'm glad you mentioned blood sugar. When mine is low; I am miserable, mind races, can't sleep, hurt all over, etc. My mother was type 1 diabetic (brittle). She used candy (i.e. $100,000 bars - favorite) to raise her blood sugar. That doesn't work for me; makes me worse.
Thanks for the good advice.
Sounds like your hypoglycemic. Research it. You need a high protein diet with some complex carbs. Treat sugar like the plague as well as caffeine. When sugar enters your body your pancreas goes on overkill and brings your sugar level down. Everytime you do this, result is the same. Please research it. Good luck.
Also, your adrenal glands take a you know what kicking. Adrenals get overstressed.
Have you try natural brown unrefined sugar?
@@leconboy1061 that sugar is white sugar with black strap molasses and that's how it gets it's brown colour. Stevia is supposed to be neutral, does not affect spike in sugar level. Allegedly ok for both diabetes and hypoglycemia. I think if one is really sensitive, allergic to sugar, maybe the body treating it's sweetness the same as regular sugar. A hypoglycemic can go into a doughnut store and the smell alone could trigger a reaction.
@@republica7337 Thank you for your time sharing, so I should avoid all the sugar .
@@leconboy1061 yes, wether your hypoglycemic or not. Treat sugar like the plague. Your body will thank you. Try to do a 2 or 3 day fast. Once you come off it, ingest some sugar. See how you feel. See how your mind reacts to it. Even honey, I was told by my naturopath to stay clear of it, benefits and all. Actually as you come off your fast, eat a nice doughnut. See how you feel.
My psychiatrist has me working out one hour a day. He told me to eat lots of nuts, instead of sugary foods. So, if I substitute 600 calories of nuts instead of eating 800 calories of cakes and cookies, I would do better. Apples are delicious. I’m going to eat more of them. I love blueberries and have some small pancakes for breakfast with cooked berries. I buy small portions of pancakes and watch the calories. I do love Greek yogurt. I eat dark chocolate almonds. They are delicious. I still can’t get rid of the depression and anxiety that I suffer. But, I do what the doctor says.
Also a hand full of almonds plain, get you to sleep, every time.
Amazing how food is medicine.
Please 🙏 please talk to a trained councillor you’ll doing what the dr said & it’s good but you may need a bit more x sending love & peace 🇬🇧
Magnesium…fish oil…exercise and meditation helps.
Love this my favorite is walnuts avocados and dark chocolate 🍫
Me too
Do these along with PATIENCE. I used to drink coffee everyday and was very obese but after having muscle spasms I learned there is no quick fixes but it takes time like a month to see improvements..
Did you ever get the spasms in the stomach area?
I love all the foods mentioned here (except pumpkin seeds) and have been eating most of them for all of my adult life, but it’s important to mention that many are expensive - walnuts, fresh berries, cherry tomatoes and avocado, for example. I can’t afford them at present.
Get it at Costco 👍
@@Indigal what is Costco? I’m Swedish, currently in Albania, and have lived in 17 countries, including Spain, Italy, Greece, Turkey, China and Russia
@@mariawerner8447 Are tomatoes, mushrooms and apples expensive in Albania? I'm asking because I live in Hungary and they are relatively cheap here. I can also forage for mulberries and wild blackberries close to my place. When they are is season, of course.
My favorite is walnuts wish I could find a walnut tree I ask my husband all the time but he forgets to them for me they so yummy I like mushrooms I like them all except the cherry tomatoes, I don't eat those. Thanks for the video great advice.
I've been suffering with both anxiety and depression all my life.
Sure, but in my experience, most people with depression have a hard time eating anything at all.
Due to severely debilitating depression I sometimes eat till my brain becomes numb and feels no pain or discomforting thoughts about my past life experiences. People in my country are so sick and terrible as I became a victim survivor of their extreme animosity cruelty and enmity and hostility. But I managed to survive against all odds in situations and circumstances where so many others perished and passed away in silence and extreme anguish and disappointment towards the extremely cruel monstrosity of the majority community people of my terrible country / nation . .
My bro go TH-cam: are you a good person by living waters
If you are from india !! How Indian society is cruel !! I live in America born in india feels like Indian society is more tolerant and more cultured as compared to any country
@@ankitasingh9603 India is the gang rape capital of the world where honour killings take place on a daily basis night or day . When an American Boy grows up he aspires to be a doctor to heal the sick people and when an indian hindu boy grows up he aspires to be a gang rapist. Shocking but absolutely true reality of the hindu india mindset. Sorry if you feel disappointed with the truth. Sugar coated sweet white lies always seem more appealing to our two faced personalities of Jekyll and Hyde. Truth is always extremely bitter and ugly to accept in a world of fake illusions created by the television media and sinfully wicked bollywood industry fraudsters on ott and cinema. Everyone is not Mahatma Gandhi. Let Truth Prevail. Jai Hind. Jai Jawaan Jai Kisaan. Peace And Love. Love All. No discrimination please. We are all equals here.
Thank you so much for the healthcare information. I really appreciate it.
Glad to know I pretty much eat all of them . A few new things to add.
I am not depressed. I learn to take time. Now is better than yesterday. I know where I can go. Where I can give love to.
HalleluYah

I do eat most of these foods I find they give me energy
Thank you for this. At least I know what to binge eat when I have my snacks.
Yeah, I always buy dark chocolate! :)
I eat all of these...daily...and still having extreme bouts...I really think hormones have more to do with it than diet..especially going through menopause.
Have you try magnesium
Hello friend..try fish oil omega 3…
@@jady1841 Hi how many mg Omega 3 please?
I take with Maximum Strength ( Seven Seas)
Pomegranates/Pomegranate juice very helpful too
Good day! Mr. Brainy Dose. Very informative helpful tips to strenghthen our health to stay in good condition despite of sometimes we are facing difficulties.

My favorite in these are Walnut and Avocado.
It's great information, i think that all vegetables and fruits are good for our brain 🧠 and we shouldn't eat the fast food.
Thank you for this video.
Fruits shud be eaten in moderation ...they are full in fructose...
Your video is very good, very informative. But you forget olive oil, carbage in natura, sweet potato, banana and other fruits and vegetables that are very healthy, very anti-inflamatory. Greetings from Brazil!
My favorit is. Kombutcha ...avocado. nuts berry's s and semi dried cherry tomatoes ..
We just started eating these things but thanks for the information 😊
It is good to know that many of these foods are in my diet at this time. I can add others for best results.
I eat most of these foods 👍
Mr Brain I eat Brussel sprouts
And oatmeal everyday before work with blueberries and almonds
Pumkin seeds andcSpinach seems ti be great in in inducing sleep when combine with Dark Chcolate.
The B-complex vitamins are vital
A well-made pizza pie does wonders for me when I am feeling on edge.
didn't know about the tryptophan on pumpkin seeds!! Great video. Thank you Brainy dose.
Magic mushrooms is actually good voor PTSD and depression too.
Read Michael Pollan " How to Change Your Mind " about the long history of Psilocybin Mushroom research and the suppression surrounding it. " What the New Science of Psychodelics Teaches Us About Consciousness, Dying, Addiction, Depression, and Transcendence ". Overcoming, not just masking symptoms with medications, instead using natures least toxic cure the Psilocybin Mushroom 🍄
Illeagle all over America. Except for one place…… Washington DC. District of Criminals!!!!
great video. These are all the foods I like best and I am usually in a very positive mood.
Add in walking or jogging and lift some weights but beware of sugar- it will destroy you and it is all manufactured foods
I am Eating A Dark Chocolate Bar every month🍫 Hope it helps

I'll add turmeric great for inflammation..or to sleep a nice milk with turmeric

Eating Walnuts rn. I love how nice they taste🤍
How disappointed I am to KNOW this NOW😒 I lost my entire 20's. I just didn't eat well. Its remarkable! Avocados, walnuts, magnesium etc, etc, ETC! It's so simple..
You can always start again.
it's never too late. you can switch to veganism for good
Been on anti depressants for couple decades. Can agree with diet recommendations. I favor nuts, berries, avocados and 'shrooms.😊
Ahh shrooms I got ya 😋
Eat about 4 grams twice a month 😂
Thanks a lot for the great video and for the advice, information and tips. 👍👍👍👍
Watching form Philippines
What about bone broth? I heard it helps anxiety
Yogurt and oatmeal and dark chocolates are my constant.
You forgot about Lemon Balm leaves
The king of natural remedies for anxiety and depression.
Where can I get lemon balm leaves?
@@laurievanzon2126 Look for Melissa essential oil, it is the essential oil of lemon balm, its expensive because it takes so many leaves to make a few drops, but its worth it.
There’s also Lemon Balm herb tea-Traditional Medicinals. My fave is Wissotzky Melissa and Verbena tea. It’s been life changing for me. Helps prevent overproduction of cortisol which many of us w depression and anxiety have. Highly recommend. Best wishes!
THANK YOU FOR YOUR INFORMATION GOD BLESS YOU
Yes I am eating some of the foods
Allergic warning nuts, dairy products, wheat products and gluten can all make you very sick check before going on any diet ,a lot of these foods are really good just underlined the dangers.
I found this video very helpful and appealing, thankyou so very much for your help :))
I have been eating alot of the foods you have mentioned..thanks!!!!! Lucia 😊
I love all the food you mentioned, thanks 😘🤗👍👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏🤩
Thnks for sharing it..An informative way of learning and guidance into a healthy lifestyle.m
I used to think avocados were a good source of omega 3, but they are actually not that high in omega 3 (still very healthy fats). Better sources of omega 3 are freshly ground flax or chia seeds.
Eating more greens helps, and also some nuts and beans.
I eat all those foods anyway. I still depressed and I sleep all day long. 😢
try ashwagandha
Thumbs up !
Thanks for sharing !
❤❤❤ i love all of these. I am not depressive❤
Walnut is best
