We all get sad sometimes.
And in the current world, chances are you might be feeling the blues a little bit more. Especially if you haven’t been able to spend time with your loved ones and have been more cooped up than you normally would.
But if you have depression, that sadness can change your life.
It keeps you from answering your best friend’s phone call … stops you from enjoying your hobbies… and even makes it hard to get out of bed.
And the mainstream is NO HELP. They just offer risky pills that can make things worse.
But that’s all about to change.
Because research shows there’s a natural way to put an end to your depression.
And it’s all thanks to a strange grape.
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 it’s 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%
- Norepinephrine by 31%
- And dopamine by 31 %
Those are better results than most antidepressants!
Berberine works because 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. Depression is no joke. And while mainstream medicine is short on effective ways to treat it, nature is FULL of natural remedies that can boost your mood without any nasty side effects. Click here to read about a powerful supplement combo that can BANISH depression.
