Inflammation and Depression
Posted date: 9:38 PM / comment : 0
I don't think it would come as a huge surprise to anyone who has been living with a food intolerance or Celiac that inflammation could be responsible for depression. It's not always easy to connect the dots back to food, who would immediately think that anxiety, mood swings and panic attacks could be connected to food. Perhaps not the average person, but shouldn't Dr's be at least reasonably aware of this possibility?
Dr's seem to always be treating the symptoms and not the underlying cause. If you are diagnosed with depression, anxiety, panic attacks, you might want to ask why. If you are diagnosed with low iron, low vitamin D, low vitamin B - three things commonly low with Celiac, you should ask why. Body aches and pains, what is causing those?
Could your diet be responsible for causing your depression?
Here is a good article, if you are interested in more information:
