Depression and other self defeating maladies. Depression is caused by a reduction in the serotonin or dopamine chemicals in our brain. At times of stress our systems use more and if the supply can’t keep up with the demand there we go into the pit… What is the first step to reducing depression or increasing serotonin/dopamine levels. We must realize we are not perfect and no matter the causative factor if our system doesn’t produce enough happy chemicals we should look at a very simple solution.. Positive affirmation. When that appears to not be effective add Niacinamide (Buffered B-3) The respo9nse to 1000mg of this supplement is amazing. It is actually the antidepressant vitamin, in the buffered form Not Plain Niacin. Buffered niacinamide elevates your mood, assists in reducing cholesterol AND aids in cardiovascular health. I want all of that! Your system will flush any overages as niacinamide is water soluble and we are 94% water, right? Without a doubt a win-win situation. When the stress level reduces or we ingest more veggies with B-3 in them we are back on track. Amazing the small things which are miracles!
