A member asked:

Do you know any non-prescription vitamins or supplements or even foods that counter depression?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Natural treatment: Alternative treatments for depression include herbal supplements ( i.e. 5 htp, same and st john's wort) and vitamins such as a b complex, vitamin d and omega 3. There is no diet that will cure depression but eating smartly can help. Limit sugars and instead choose smart carbs (i.e. Legumes, whole grains) and foods rich in antioxidants(i.e. Blueberries, broccoli). Don't forget exercise!
