I still remember when I tried cod liver oil (figured if my parents were forced to take it growing up, I could stand it). I remember spitting it all over the mirror in my apartment bathroom and not being able to get it all off (it's "sticky" stuff). It was really vile; I don't know how our parents lived through that, LOL. |
LOL..just like rubitussin ..the ad..I do not take it .
It sounds a bit simplistic I agree. If there were a miracle cure there would be no T and no depressed people.
Although I agree that our diets can affect our brain and how we feel too. But there is a multitude of stuff that this book does not mention : magnesium/calcium/zinc, iron, vitamin D etc. They all play a part in our system, body and brain.
Exercise yes...difficult to feel down when you are exercising !
I think it is not digging deep enough.
There is the psychological side of it. Women tend to blame themselves a lot more for whatever happened and feel depressed/down etc than men. Women are more prone to think " what did I do wrong ? what is or was wrong with me ?" but men do not operate that way.
I had to smile at the " when menopause was considered a disease"..well am not old enough to know about that but it reminded me of periods being called " the curse".
And good old Freud with his "hysteric women"..and "penis envy"
