Dear Living Well Daily Reader,
Nothing is more frustrating than depression.
It doesn’t matter how sunny the day is or what kind of good news you get, you still feel sad.
Your loved ones try to cheer you up, but it’s no use.
The important thing to remember though is that it’s not your fault… and there IS a way out.
But it’s not Big Pharma’s scary, chock-full-of-side-effects prescriptions.
It’s something else entirely.
Researchers have discovered that a strange Oregon fruit can ELIMINATE your depression like nothing else can.
Plus, it lowers your cholesterol, prevents dementia, and more!
The Oregon grape isn’t the type of grape you’d find in the produce section of your local grocer.
Instead, this powerful plant has long been prized for its healing abilities… and now we know why.
You see, this plant contains a powerful compound called berberine that can lower your blood sugar… improve your cholesterol… and even reduce your risk of dementia.
And new research show it’s the depression breakthrough we’ve all been waiting for.
One of the key drivers of depression is low levels of certain neurotransmitters. When these chemicals are low or absent, your brain can’t send or receive the messages that determine your mood.
But berberine can significantly BOOST these levels.
In fact, one mouse study found that even minimal doses of berberine upped levels of the following:
- Serotonin by 47 percent
- Norepinephrine by 31 percent
- And dopamine by 31 percent
Those are better results than most antidepressants!
Berberine works because it activates an enzyme called adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK).
AMPK is an important brain-protective chemical that senses stress and then helps send signals to your brain that can help restore and balance your neurotransmitters.
Plus, AMPK activation can help you have more energy and improve your mood!
Berberine supplements are available at your local pharmacy. Or you can try this one.
P.S. There’s another way to attack your low moods as well… and it’s so simple, it takes just seconds each day. Find out about a depression-causing threat that’s hiding out in a surprising place right here.
