Date: October 17, 2008 04:01PM I suffered seasonal depression for a number of years. One of the reasons that I left Michigan for AZ was to combat the seasonal depression with lots of sun.
I have read several stories on how raw food life-styles have healed people from a myriad of ailments. Has anyone suffered seasonal depression? If so has a raw diet eliminated the seasonal depression? Re: seasonal depresssion and raw eating?

Date: October 17, 2008 09:28PM I haven't suffered from seasonal depression, but I have battled with (general) depression for the past ten years... I would offer that since being raw, I have a lot more energy, which translates into a much more positive outlook on life for me. Exercise is also great for boosting endorphins. This will be my first winter raw... I'm hoping between the juiced ginger to stay warm and the kale to keep me peppy, that this will be a great dark season.  Re: seasonal depresssion and raw eating?

Date: October 20, 2008 07:26PM Eating a 100% raw food diet in a cold climate is very difficult for most. It's such a struggle as your body is craving some warming foods. If you have some warm vegetable soups and perhaps some steamed veggies, this might just see you through the winter without the depression.
100% raw and a hot climate is an ideal situation! Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
