4 possible causes of mood disorders

In an issue of the Psychological Bulletin, researchers took a close look at many of the nutrients that are in EMPowerplus, linking dietary vitamins and minerals (micronutrients) to mood.

They discussed how “recent investigations with multi-ingredient formulas are especially promising. However, without a reasonable conceptual framework for understanding mechanisms by which micronutrients might influence mood, the published literature is too readily dismissed.”

Consequently, they outline 4 models to explain possible causes of mood disorders:

Diet and depression

A Finish researcher recently published a study investigating the connection between diet and severe depression.

The study analyzed 3 other Finnish studies that collectively had over 3000 participants, and they analyzed consumption of:  folate, vitamin B12, serum concentrations of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, coffee, tea, and caffeine.

The research indicated that diet, especially a healthy diet rich in folate, and a dietary pattern rich in vegetables, fruits, berries, whole-grains, poultry, fish, and low-fat cheese, may protect against depression.

This research confirms what we continue to say: nutrition affects our mental health.

EMPowerplus and olive leaf extract to treat ADHD and depression

A New Zealand researcher recently published a case study in the Advances in Mind-Body Medicine journal regarding the effect EMPowerplus and olive leaf extract have together on ADHD and depression.

A 24-year-old woman participated in a 2010 study that measured the effect of EMPowerplus on people with ADHD following an earthquake in New Zealand. After 8 weeks on EMPowerplus, the woman “was no longer depressed, and her ADHD scores had fallen to within the normal-average range.” She maintained these results for the 4-month follow-up period,

The effect of EMPowerplus on cannabis and nicotine abuse

New Zealand researchers recently published a case study paper in the Journal of Psychoactive Drugs regarding the effect of EMPowerplus on cannabis and nicotine abuse.

The case study involved a 20-year-old man who met DSM-IV criteria for ADHD combined type, major depressive disorder, panic disorder with agoraphobia, and substance abuse. Brian used cigarettes and cannabis daily and had been on medications for his psychiatric symptoms (including methylphenidate, imipramine, fluoxetine, clonidine, amitriptyline, lorazepam, and clonazepam).

Studying 1565 people , the researchers classified the participants into one of three groups: at risk for malnutrition, with malnutrition, and well nourished. They used the Geriatric Depression Score to measure their mood.

EMPowerplus most researched formula in the world

Did you know that the Truehope EMPowerplus formula is the most researched formula of its kind in the world?

In April 2011, Canadian researchers published an article in BMC Psychiatry exploring the safety and tolerability of EMPowerplus. In the conclusion of the paper, they stated the following:

[EMPowerplus] has the largest number of ingredients (36) of any formula reported in the scientific literature. . . . There is more published and ongoing research on this formula for mental health than on any other complex formula anywhere in the world.

All the Truehope research at your fingertips

If you’ve been following this blog for a while, you probably noticed that we like to talk about our research. The Truehope EMPowerplus formula is the most researched micronutrient formula in the world. It has been the subject of over 30 academic studies undertaken by nearly 50 independent researchers at 15 universities around the world.

We have never funded even a single study. We believe this arms-length, hands-off approach better reduces the risk of influence that we could have on the results.
