Hidden cause of both depression and anxiety
Summary
Worse, if you are a woman and you go to the doctor with unexplained fatigue, depression and weight gain, they are not going to consider anything other than putting you on an antidepressant. Because doctors are also under the impression that all anxiety and depression is caused by “brain chemistry.” Therefore, the differential diagnosis requires them to prescribe an antidepressant for those symptoms. Eat foods with vitamin B1 in particular as it helps stave off depression, memory loss, fatigue and numbness — all signs of Hashimodo’s. Additionally, we have known for many years that there is a group of herbs that are called adaptogens because they seem to provide us with a general sense of wellbeing and health. Plus ashwagandha root works as an immune modulator to help regulate autoimmune inflammation (like what occurs in Hashimoto’s) that can cause an under-active thyroid.
