7.Vitamins and Other Nutrients
People who are low on vitamin D seem more likely to get depressed, but taking extra D doesn’t always help them feel better. Some studies show that EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid), found in fish oil, may help treat depression. L-methylfolate (Deplin) — shows promise for boosting the benefits of antidepressants in some patients. Talk to your doctor to see if it’s right for you.
8.Consider St. John’s Wort
The ancient herb St. John’s wort is often prescribed for depression in Europe. Many studies have shown it can help as much as medicine for milder cases. But it doesn’t seem to work for serious depression. It can also interact with antidepressants, so talk to your doctor before using it.
