Answer:

Bipolar Disease. They can help, it depends on your depression and on your actual diet.

If you eat the typical American diet, 90% of the population is omega 3 deficient. If you are deficient in omega 3 it means your brains cells, which require lots of omega 3 to work properly, will not work properly. They won’t make good connections, which is when you feel down, bad moods, no desire to move, etc.

Fats make up to 60% of our brains. Like protein makes our muscles and calcium our bones, fats make our brain. But not any fat. We need a special fat, DHA, that’s is the major component of our brain. I repeat, DHA is the major component of our brain tissue.

That said, is very simple to understand why if we don’t supply our body with enough omega 3 there is going to be some unbalance in our brain chemistry. Therefore, in our brain function.

In that case, Omega 3 deficiency , instead of DHA our body uses whatever fats are available to work with: Omega 6 and Trans Fatty Acids. If you don't have much DHA in your blood, man-made trans-fat molecules may be used as the brain construction material, instead. But trans-fats (hydrogenated oils) are shaped differently than DHA: they are straight while DHA is curved.

If you repeat the scenario every day, you may end with depression, failing memory, bad moods. Do this to developing brains and you have children having difficulties learning, behavior problems in class. Their neurons have faulty connections with no omega 3 but Trans fats.

Other basic step to prevent depression is to exercise daily at medium high intensity. Everything in life looks better after a 45 minutes run. Try it, but start slowly. You will get oxygen to all brain cells.

Exercise is absolutely critical to the "cure" many chronic modern diseases like:

  • Obesity
  • Depression
  • Cancer
  • Aging
  • Diabetes
  • Aging Brain.

People with the highest activity levels were half as likely as inactive individuals to develop Alzheimer's, and were around 40 percent less likely to suffer any dementia or mental impairment.
