Jose’s success story: depression

I’d start this off with “once upon a time,” but this is no fairy tale. This is a little story, a true story, about someone who is back on track, and you could be too.

I’ve been dealing with mental illness as far back as I remember. It started with my father and later on in my life became my burden. I knew I had problems early in my teens, but only sought help when a friend at work noticed a change in my behavior and gave me the name of her ex-husband’s psychiatrist. By that time, I had already been self-medicating just to forget or get away from my issues.

The inane search for magic bullets to treat mental illness

Dr. Bonnie Kaplan and Julia Rucklidge, two researchers who specialize in the connection between nutrition and mental health, recently wrote a blog post regarding the conventional approach to research in this area: single nutrients.

But here is the primary message that emerged from that examination of the literature: scientists were not studying nutrition in the way in which humans have evolved to require nutrients — consuming lots of them together and in balance.

Instead, researchers for over 100 years have given a group of participants a single nutrient then tested for improvement.

Pamela’s success story: bipolar

My name is Pamela Tipping, and my mother was diagnosed 23 years ago with manic depression (bipolar), when I was 10 years old.

I had a tough time growing up; however, my mother is an incredible woman. Through those insane years, in and out of institutions, going through the severe effects of prescription meds, and raising 2 kids on her own, she managed to obtain her master’s degree in psychology and is now a highly regarded psychologist in a federal position. I am very proud of her.

How antibiotics interact with EMPowerplus

Normally, we would be just finishing the most miserable season of the year: cold and flu season. With the snow and cold lasting seemingly longer than normal, these common illnesses still linger.

Most of the time, cold and flu symptoms are relatively minor and simply need lots of rest and plenty of liquids. Occasionally, however, symptoms can become severe and infections can occur, requiring antibiotic use to kill the infection and give relief.
