Dear Living Fuel Family,
In 2016, conventional medicine’s “solution” to clinical depression frequently includes a top-selling and highly profitable prescription medication. Browse the side effects of these drugs and they can sound worse that the condition they claim to alleviate! Just a generation ago, the “prescription” for diagnosed depression was rest and sunshine, both free!
It’s great to see that much study is underway and findings are emerging that reveal a better way to treat clinical depression. Natural solutions such as Omega-3 fish oil and Vitamin D are showing promising results in lab and, more importantly, in the lives of those battling with debilitating and paralyzing depression.

The results are often astounding.
