Christmas weekend is supposed to be a time of great joy, but so many people are hurting right now after a difficult year. Suicides and drug overdoses have increased. But Dr. Prather wants those struggling with Depression to know that there is hope. In this episode, we talk about:
--How depression can be kicked off by pharmaceuticals (including drugs for ADD/ADHD and non-steroidal anti-inflammatories).
--If you have 5 of these symptoms for more than 2 weeks, you should seek help for depression.
--Why Structure/Function health care should be a part of your care for depression in order to get to the underlying cause.
--How hormones, structural issues, nutritional deficiencies, food allergies, and imbalances in minerals are important considerations as a cause of depression.
--How 70% of depressed patients in one study had thyroid issues, and how antidepressants can often be eliminated after the thyroid is working properly.
--How low iron is a common cause of depression in teenage girls, and the inspiring story of the Mom who now has her daughter back.
--The tear-jerking story of an 84-year-old woman who avoided being put on antidepressants and being admitted to a nursing home because Dr. Prather discovered too low cholesterol and low fat levels as the source of her problem.
--Why Dr. Prather says acupuncture "almost consistently" helps bring people out of a depressive state and gives patients relief from anxiety and insomnia.
--The natural, non-pharmaceutical treatments Dr. Prather uses in his office to help those with depression.
--The story of a man who tried to commit suicide 5 times and whose life was transformed by getting his copper/zinc ratio balanced out.
