Naturopaths, HELP, I can’t turn my brain off, please read :q?
I have been on anti depressants for many years because I couldn’t turn my brain off, but I don’t need them anymore. I am no working full time, my kids are grown and gone and essentially my stress level is nill. But I get into emotional trauma and huge abandonment issues and my brain just won’t let my body sleep. I don’t know what supplements to take as when I was on anti-depressants, I couldn’t take anything natural with them, I really don’t think I am depressed, but my family has been very mean to me and when they upset me, I seem to go into this ” I can’t sleep stage”. What do you suggest I take, It used to be L-Tryptophan, but we can’t buy that ?? what do I take, I do NOT want to go back on the anti depressants. When I walk and walk and walk, it calms me down, but right now, NOTHING can make my brain shut off so I can sleep. suggestions ?
The following are excerpted from an article/treatment protocol that I had published in the December issue of a medical journal [http://www.naturalmedicinejournal.com/pdf/nmj_dec09_tp.pdf] :
Even when you are taking antidepressants you can take Omega-3. A 2007 meta-analysis of trials involving patients with major depressive disorder and bipolar disorder provided evidence that omega-3 PUFA supplementation reduces symptoms of depression. The foods with the highest amounts of omega 3 are flax seeds, Chia seeds, walnuts, baked/broiled salmon, soybeans, baked/broiled halibut, sardines, herring, tofu, and winter squash. Other foods containing omega-3s are canola oil, olive oil, broccoli, cantaloupe, kidney beans, spinach, grape leaves, Chinese cabbage, and cauliflower.
Exercise is also very helpful for depression, as you have found out.
B vitamins are also important for you. The B-complex vitamins are water-soluble vitamins that are essential to mental and emotional well-being. Good sources of B vitamins include the following.
••Asparagus, broccoli, spinach, bananas, potatoes
••Dried apricots, dates and figs
••Milk, eggs, cheese, yogurt
••Nuts and legumes (includes rice, corn, soy beans, string beans, peas, lentils, mustard, sesame seeds, and poppy seeds)
••Fish
••Brown rice, wheat germ, whole grain cereals
Magnesium is another essential component of your diet. Studies have shown an inverse relationship between magnesium intake and depression and anxiety. Patients with depression should add foods that are high in magnesium to their diet, such as fish, barley, artichokes, buckwheat, oat bran, almonds, cashews, pine nuts, black beans, white beans, cornmeal, spinach, broccoli, tomatoes, pumpkin seeds, and soybeans. Whole-wheat flour contains magnesium, but the magnesium-rich germ and bran are removed in the process of making white flour. All green vegetables are sources of magnesium because the center of the chlorophyll molecule contains magnesium.
One of the most important things you can do for yourself is to stay as far away from caffeine and sugar as you possibly can, as these things worsen the problem.
Good luck and I hope you get some sleep soon.

As we mentioned in previous article, Premenstrual syndrome effects over 70% to 90% of women before menopause in the US and less for women in Southeast Asia because of their difference in living style and social structure. The occurrence of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) have more than doubled over the past 50 years due to the acceptance of it as a medical condition that is caused by unhealthy diet with high in saturated food. Premenstrual syndrome is defined as faulty function of the ovaries related to the women’s menstrual cycle, it effects a women’s physical and emotional state, and sometimes interferes with daily activities as a result of hormone fluctuation. In this article, we will discuss how essential fatty acids, tryptophan and serotonin women with PMS.
1. Essential fatty acids
Levels of essential fatty acids besides is vital for liver in fat and protein metabolism and control the levels of bad estrogen caused by environment toxins in our body, it also helps to reduce nervous tension including anxiety and depression and convert linoneic acid into good prostaglandins hormone PGE2 resulting in lessening the menstrual cramps and pain and breast tenderness.
2. Tryptophan
Tryprophan plays an important role in controlling the nervous tension including depression. It is used by our body to make serotonin, the chemical secreted by pituitary gland when encounter stress. Deficiency of tryptophan causes unbalance of levels of serotonin leading to depression.
