Dr. Martin looks at some new studies on depression. He has often spoken of vitamin E, exercise, and it turns out it’s as effective as taking drugs in treating anxiety and depression. Also, with vitamin S, steak, people who eat red meat are 50% less likely to get depression. And finally, a sobering stat is that 1 in 5 people in the US will go through major depression! Three studies on dementia also came out in the last week. The studies looked at fruits and vegetables versus fish and red meat, refined carbs, and high fructose corn syrup for increasing your risk of dementia and Alzheimer’s.
