One of the main reasons that we as a society have struggled to treat depression is that there doesn’t seem to be only 1 cause.

Prior research has linked depression to stressful or traumatic life events, while others have observed depression manifesting after chronic substance abuse. Genetic factors might also be at play, as people with a family history of depression are 3x more likely to have it too.

However, there’s 1 thing that science is showing is common to ALL depression and anxiety cases - and that’s an unhealthy gut microbiome. This is why so much research is looking into the gut microbiome links to mental health illness of all kinds, but especially depression.

For anyone suffering with anxiety, depression, or any other kind of mental health condition, you MUST start working on your gut health immediately!
