I'm wondering how many of you feel that nutrition plays a major role in mental health. If so, have you changed your diet, and has it helped?
I've been drinking wheatgrass juice for about 9 months almost daily. It has all the known vitamins and many minerals. It's also very detoxifying to the body. I also eat raw organic fruits and vegetables, seeds and nuts as the primary staples of my diet. I only eat dairy products occassionally when I eat out as well as fish. I don't eat any fowl or red meat. I also don't eat any refined sugar or iodized salt.
I've lost about 35 pounds, and my skin has never been better. I've had a couple of medical problems vanish, and I rarely get colds or flues. I have much fewer problems with depression although I still have it occassionally.
I don't take vitamins or other supplements because I've heard that they are not very absorbable by the body, and I can get plenty of nutrition from the whole, unprocessed foods that I consume, especially wheatgrass juice.
What's your diet like? Care to share?
