Re: Blood Test for Depression
I knew 10 years ago that scientists were working on a blood test for depression, much in the same way they can test for bipolar lithium levels. I am glad to see that it is finally a reality.
But, what I would like to see ..treatment wise is for physicians to incorporate good nutrition of whole foods and exercise into the treatment plan. In this day of processed boxed foods, people do not realize that they are not getting nourishment from the foods they eat. That will do much to help alleviate the suffering of depression. But am I cynical to think that maybe they do not what natural healing so they can push high priced medications off on the people to make a buck?
Is it not beyond the healthcare community to withhold effective treatment that includes nutrition so that they can have a consistent return paying customer?
