A few weeks ago, I discovered the nuisance weed growing in the cracks of my driveway is Purslane, edible and very high in omega-3 acids, possibly the highest in the plant kingdom. After all the time and money spent trying to eradicate it.

“explanation for the observed correlation between omega-3 poor diets, which are very widespread in the industrialized world”

Come on people this is more marxist/anti-capitalism propaganda. Notice here how they blame the “industrialized world” which is capitalism.

The fake anti-capitalism science of global warming has been proven a hoax.

Life expectancies have risen in the U.S. every decade.

I don’t buy any of this “science”.

The told us fat was bad now it’s good.

Global warming, swine flu, BP oil “disaster” etc.

All fake threats to make people give up their freedoms and accept more government control (socialism).

Rush just debunked the “science” of eating fruits and vegetables.

My husband started taking purified fish pills with berry extract a few years ago. His blood pressure returned to normal and his cholesterol dropped. He now has his G.P. taking them as well. The fish oil is not suppose to be like valium or something that strong but does tend to equalize a person’s moods. Just a mild calming affect. Works for us. Just a thought.

A fish a day keeps the doctor away. Or is that going fishing every day keeps the doctor away, I forget.

Vitamin D is also good for mental health and helps the immune system. Many people with mental health disorders have a difficult time getting through the winter months. Vitamin D seems to make a difference.

There is a good chance that the symptom of depression does not have a single cause. All depressions are not the same. Thus prozac and all other medicines act differently in different types of depression.

Any new breakthrough on depression is likely to apply to just a small percentage of those who experience depression.

And what is considered a “cure” for depression?

For some, a person who goes on SSI with a disability and takes medicine at taxpayer expense is “cured” as long as he takes his medicine.

For me, drinking MtnDew aides me to function, in spite of my depression. I’m still just as depressed as when I was non-functional. But I work and pay taxes to support the person on SSI rather than going on SSI myself.

Thanks for posting this. Funny, isn’t it, that fish was referred to by our ancestors as “brain food” long before there was such a branch of science known as neuroscience.

I should be ecstatically happy then. I’m taking anywhere from 30,000 to 60,000 units a day, because I was a dummy, and forgot to get my flu shot when my doctor demanded I go in for a check up. So far, it seems to be working. I’ve started to get a couple of colds that went away immediately.

A deficiency of dietary omega-3 may explain depressive behaviors

depressive behavior leads to aggression, the urge for change, and possibly a revolt. It needs to be eradicated immediately, best already in young children with Ritalin.
Happiness must be our ultimate goal, all unfit natural behavior must be called a Decease, so we accept things like higher Taxes, Obama care etc. without question.
