I Fixed 30 Depressed Years (with Food!) by Joan Kent, PhD

 

I’d been depressed for most of my life. Before I knew the word, I thought I was just sad, but it never went away.

 

My life was filled with reasons to be depressed — abusive parents, mentally ill mother, and on and on. But this was more. I spent hours each week thinking of ways to kill myself.

 

“Depression is the most unpleasant thing I have ever experienced. It is that absence of being able to envisage that you will ever be cheerful again. The absence of hope.” – J.K. Rowling

 

Over the years, I tried meditation, personal-growth seminars, positive thinking, you name it. My mood would change temporarily, but the all-too-familiar depression always returned.

 

Have you ever had a problem you couldn’t solve, no matter what you tried?

 

The Unlikely Source of My Solution

 

Somewhere in all of this, I had written an article for the newsletter of the fitness club where I worked. It was on insulin resistance. A woman walked in, clutching the article, and demanded an appointment with the author.

 

So that’s how I met This Woman. Her clients were drug addicts and alcoholics, and she kept them successfully in recovery by using the effects of foods on their brain chemistry.

 

Fascinating, right?  I learned all I could from her, then started studying on my own. Very little information was available on the topic — this was a long time ago — but I kept reading.

 

I’ve never been addicted to drugs or alcohol, but began to make changes in my own diet. My situation started evolving.

 

One morning, for example, as I waited for my personal training client to arrive, I noticed that I was feeling … fabulous. No other word for it. I had never felt that good before.

 

Things kept getting better. My health was better. I no longer caught colds, got the flu, or had other nuisance health issues. The monthly pains I had suffered with virtually disappeared.

 

And the Depression?

 

Sometime later, I ended up in a fitness seminar with other people — mostly women — who mentioned their “down” moods and mood swings. That day, I realized I never felt depressed anymore. Never thought about it, never worried about it. It was no longer part of my life.

 

Needless to say, I don’t miss it.

 

Now I have a PhD in how foods affect brain chem, and I use my powers for good!  Yes, I’ve helped many clients with different health problems – but have also helped some reverse anxiety, depression, poor focus, and mood swings. Over the years, I keep making it easier and easier for them to do.
