You may have depression if you are experiencing any of these symptoms:
  • Persistent sad feelings
  • Chronic apathy
  • Insomnia or excessive sleeping
  • Absence of pleasure or the ability to experience it
  • Dramatic change in appetite, often with weight gain or loss
  • Fatigue and lack of energy
  • Feelings of worthlessness, self-hate, and inappropriate guilt
  • Extreme difficulty concentrating
  • Agitation, restlessness, and irritability
  • Loss of interest in activities and withdrawal from usually enjoyed activities
  • Feelings of hopelessness and helplessness
  • Recurring thoughts of death or suicide3
Diagnosis
The following tests and procedures may help you find out what is causing depression:

  • Online Self-assessments – Self-assessments, such as the Candidiasis Self-assessment and the Magnesium Assessment, can help you determine some of the root cause(s) of your chronic conditions. Learn more about Self-assessments.
  • Essential and Metabolic Fatty Acids Analysis – Measures levels of 30 important fatty acids, in addition to providing crucial fatty acid ratios, identifying key deficiencies and monitoring effectiveness of supplementation.
  • Comprehensive Digestive Stool Analysis (CDSA) – Evaluates digestion, absorption, intestinal function, and microbial flora, possibly revealing fundamental causes and contributing factors involved in the onset of depression.1

It would also be extremely helpful to run objective tests that can detect the following:

  • Folic acid (also known as vitamin B-9) deficiency
  • Food allergies15
  • Hormone imbalances
  • Iron deficiency
  • Vitamin B-6 deficiency
  • Vitamin B-12 deficiency
