Seit Jahrhunderten bilden traditionelle Heilverfahren, die aus dem reichen Erbe der mittel- und osteuropäischen Länder stammen, einen wesentlichen Bestandteil der gesundheitlichen Vorsorge, und ihre Bedeutung nimmt heute auch in westlichen Gesellschaften, einschließlich Polen, kontinuierlich zu. Immer mehr Menschen entscheiden sich bewusst gegen synthetische pharmazeutische Präparate und setzen stattdessen auf erprobte, natürliche Lösungen mit nachgewiesener Wirksamkeit. Ein Bereich, in dem natürliche Substanzen eine beträchtliche Effektivität zeigen, ist die Vorbeugung und Linderung depressiver Symptome. In dieser Abhandlung stellen wir wissenschaftlich belegte, pflanzliche und ernährungsbezogene Mittel vor, die die Therapie dieser Störung unterstützen können.
Natural anti-depressants
Depression is an increasingly common disease that affects people of all ages. According to the World Health Organization, it is the fourth most serious health disorder. A very large proportion of people don't even realize that they have depression. Its most common symptoms are: loss of mood, sadness, feelings of helplessness, bad mood, anger, constant irritation, lack of pleasure, depression, feeling of self-esteem, apathy.
The drill bit
The active ingredients are: hypercycin, pseudohypericin, lawonoids: rutin, quercetin and hyperoside, hyperforin, garlic, vitamins A and C, essential oils. The anti-depressant properties of the drug are mainly due to its high levels of hypercycine and pseudohipericin. These substances inhibit the breakdown of serotonin, and its insufficient levels in the body cause symptoms of anxiety, depression and nausea.
Chocolate
Chocolate is also considered to be a natural antidepressant. Of course, we're talking about real, bitter chocolate here. Chocolate improves blood flow to the brain, making it oxygenated and function better. It also helps to improve concentration, mood, and increases the production of dopamine, endorphins, and serotonin, which are thought to be happiness hormones. The compounds in chocolate: they improve mood, they act relaxingly, they bring joy, happiness.
Vitamin B
B vitamins also play a very important role in the fight against depression. Their main sources are nuts, legume seeds, onions, various types of meat, fish, seafood, whole grain baked goods, strawberries, avocados, potatoes, bananas, citrus fruits, vegetables (especially dark green ones). Each B vitamin has other properties, but they all have anti-depressant properties. They help with stress, help with nerves, have a beneficial effect on nervous systems, play a major role in producing serotonin and hormones (hormones) and can also help with anxiety, depression, anxiety disorders, memory loss, fatigue, depression.
Vitamin D and its salts
Equally important in the fight against depression is vitamin D. Its main sources are fatty seafood, milk, yellow cheese, eggs (and in particular yolk). Vitamin D is synthesized mainly by the human body under the sun, so it should be supplemented in the autumn-winter periods. In addition to its antidepressant effects, it also has a significant effect on the immune system, nerves, muscles and bones. Its deficiency is associated with disorders in the above-mentioned systems and overall weakness of the body.
A woman and a man
Ginseng root is a popular plant in China. In a 2010 study, ginseng given to mice showed strong anti-antimicrobial and anti-depressant properties. ginseng root has a number of medicinal properties, including: it adds energy, boosts vitality, increases resistance to stress, has antioxidant effects, improves memory and concentration, enhances immune function, has a beneficial effect on levels of dopamine and serotonin. For these reasons ginseng extract is used in the treatment of depression, insomnia, and anxiety.
Omega-3 fatty acids
The last natural antidepressant to be discussed is the unsaturated omega-3 fatty acids. It is therefore widely known that, after 4 weeks of supplementing with omega-3s, the fats are known to have a beneficial effect on the heart's functioning, the immune system, and improving blood cholesterol levels. However, studies show that omega-3's also exhibit antidepressants. Measures published in 2012 in the Journal of Clinical Pharmacology show that after four weeks of omega-3 supplementation, the subjects experienced a decrease in symptoms of depression and an overall improvement in self-esteem.
