Malic Acid and Magnesium for Brain Zaps

Image inspired by R.Crumb
















If you are withdrawing from meds - antidepressants - you may have brain zaps or other painful symptoms as part of what the pharmaceutical industry wishes us to benignly think of as "discontinuation syndrome".
As many who have been through SSRI withdrawal know, the experience can be a kind of Hell. You can read descriptions of brain zaps here.
To ease brain zaps, you may consider using supplements of Magnesium and Malic acid, described in the link below. Magnesium is the main ingredient in baby powder and Epsom salts, and Malic acid is also found under the name Apple Cider Vinegar. Link

Gator Bait, Bad Brains

There has been much sad news this week of multiple murders, and we may find that the gunmen were on psychotropic medications.
But apart from altered mental status from antidepressants, there are 29 possible reasons why people run amok: mostly, "schizophrenia" is caused by nutritional disorders. These are fairly easy to identify and correct, and they are listed and explained here.
This case may prove to be just too much TV, but makes us think of a deficiency of B6, zinc and essential fatty acids - pyroluria. - More here.
We get really involved in the quality of food for our pets - isn't it time we start thinking about nutrition for our families' minds?

Antidepressants Strongly Linked to Heart Disease

"Researchers have documented an alarming link between the use of antidepressants and the development of serious heart disease. The link was discovered by following 63,449 women as part of the Nurses’ Health Study. The results show a “specific relationship between antidepressant use and sudden cardiac death.” The specific conclusion of the study states, “In this cohort of women without baseline coronary heart disease, depressive symptoms were associated with fatal coronary heart disease, and a measure of clinical depression including antidepressant use was specifically associated with sudden cardiac death.”

This antidepressant news followed another recent and rather stunning finding, that antidepressants cause significant bone loss. The commonly used SSRI antidepressants double the risk for fractures in anyone over the age of 50 who uses them regularly. The mechanism involved is that too much serotonin from the drugs directly interferes with the formation of new bone."
