Did Your Therapist Mention ...

Did your therapist mention that the food that you eat and the balance of nutrients in your body, influence your mind, mood and behavior? That they effect how you feel, how you feel about yourself, and how you feel about your life?

If not, let me mention it, otherwise you might keep going for therapy forever and never feel better. I am not suggesting that the challenges that we face in our lives, and for which we see therapists, are all caused by food reactions and nutrient imbalances. I am saying that it would be somewhere between not smart, and dangerous to not look carefully at the powerful effects of foods and nutrients on how we feel. Some call this holistic medicine. I call it Functional Medicine.

Try gluten on for size. It can cause depression, irritability, listlessness, and mood disorders. Click the link, read the source, and realize that this is one of hundreds if not thousands of resources on gluten's effects on mind, mood and behavior.

And what about vitamin D? There is much evidence that suggests an association between low vitamin D levels and depression.

These are just two powerful examples.

If your therapist didn't mention food and nutrients to you as factors that influence every part of your life, you could bring it up.
