The subject of depression is a grievous problem especially for America.  We seem to be at an all time high in our world of depression, and we tend to blame it on things like, lack of finances, problems at work, or whatever.  But it’s truly my belief that when it comes to depression it is very much related to a nutritional deficiency. If you look at the chain effect of what minerals depend on each other, what minerals depend on vitamins, and so on you will see that the depression chain is that of Zinc, Potassium, Calcium, Magnesium, and B Vitamins.  Your B Vitamins are very important here. If you take the Complete Body Balance Kit which is the 13 major minerals all mixed into the Complete Essentials, you will get most of what we are talking about right here except, you will need extra Magnesium.  This is your key component when dealing with depression.  Magnesium is your relaxing and calming mineral, your stress free mineral, your anti-stress mineral.  It is your miracle mineral in all respects.  Magnesium will calm you down, it will relax you.  I think that if you’re in a situation where there’s depression concerning you or your loved ones, as much extra Magnesium as the body will tolerate based on what’s needed – one ounce, two ounces, three ounces, four ounces, five ounces extra a day, over and above the Magnesium that you can get in the Complete Body Balance Kit may be needed. It’s not harmful to you, even if you get diarrhea, for that’s probably a needed component anyway, to get the body cleaned up.  A lot of depression comes from the body having to stop and absorb, and re-absorb toxins.  In this case, I would highly recommend using the Complete Cleanse, a cleansing program for total body cleansing so that the body does not have to re-absorb these toxins, and have to deal with that extra stress caused by a build up of toxins.  So, on top of the Magnesium and the Complete Body Balance Kit, look at doing a cleanse to get the body cleaned up and back in position. You need to seriously consider your B Vitamins.  These are your anti-stress vitamins, and one in particular is Vitamin B-3 which is niacin.  You don’t want to be taking niacin in a flushing form, because only about 50 milligrams will flush you, and give you sunburn, or the effects of sunburn for a short time.  What you want to take is niacinimide. This is buffered niacin, a non-flushing form of niacin, and you can actually take 500 milligrams one or two times per day based on what you need in this respect, or based on the severity of the depression. Every time you take a B vitamin by itself you need to add a B complex to it.  So if you take a 500 milligram of niacinamide take a B complex with it.  If you take 2/500 milligrams of niacin amide per day take 2 B-complex with each 500 milligram of niacinamide.  This particular B vitamin will bring you great relief when it comes to depression.

Now there are some old remedies out there that you probably already know about, and one is that of St. Johns Wart.  It’s been our experience that St. Johns Wart is mildly effective if it’s a very mild depression, but it’s also a product that you do not need to be taking every single day.  You should never take St. Johns Wart over 7 to 10 days maximum in a row, for it will over tax your immune system; therefore, it is not one that I would recommend for overcoming depression, but it can offer relief on bad days.  Keep in mind, fresh air in a wooded area, sunlight, to allow your body to recreate proper melatonins and seratonins. Walking barefooted in a wooded area has certain benefits in overcoming depression.

Just to give a re-cap of the things we talked about are the Complete Body Balance Kit, which has a vitamin and mineral combination with many special nutrients, extra Magnesium, going through the Complete Cleanse Kit, B Vitamins, and of course I’m talking about a B Vitamin Complex, an extra Complex that you need to be taking on top of what’s in your Complete Body Balance Kit, and this is assuming you’re taking extra Vitamin B-3 in a non-flushing form called niacinamide.  You also need to take an extra B-Complex each time you take
an ounce of Magnesium.  B-Complex is a water soluble vitamin therefore, it only stays in your bloodstream for approximately 4 hours and has no toxic effect.
