Low energy depression

Posted by Lao Tzu on February 5, 2009, at 6:44:12

After several months of fish oil, borage oil, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, B12 (if deficient), and B1, I noticed I have a lot less problems with maintaining my energy levels. I think the best thing I did was adding the fish and borage oils. During summer, my energy levels used to drop quite a bit, but this last summer was easier to deal with by adding the fish and borage oils. I also notice a big difference when I take just 100IU of vitamin E during the day. My energy increases. I don't get the same result with 200IU or 400IU strengths of Vitamin E, just a low dosage of 100IU during the day. A low dosage of vitamin C is good to add to this, say just 500mg in the morning. What's more, my cholesterol went way down after being on the fish and borage oils for several months.

Thanks for the report, Lao Tzu. Do you happen to know anything about virgin coconut oil?

Are you relying totally on nutritional products for depression? Thanks Phillipa

I do , its somewhat beneficial to add some to your diet for its antimicrobial, anti-viral and anti-fungal properties, but it is more of an add on - not the panancea that some websites would claim.

If you are looking for an supplement that gives you a non-anxious energy - I would suggest D-Ribose powder at 5g three times a day ( buy bulk only, thats the only affordable way)
