What Are the Different Types of Natural Antidepressants?
Depression is the most commonly experienced mood disorder in adults and children, with a higher rate of incidence among women. While the specific cause of depression largely remains a mystery, it is generally accepted that an imbalance of hormones that affect mood, namely serotonin and dopamine, is responsible. However, there is evidence to indicate that some individuals may be genetically susceptible to depression. In addition, some studies suggest that other factors may play a role, including impaired functioning of the hippocampus, and altered DNA of brain cells due to oxidation stress promoted by vascular disease. Whatever the cause, depression can be treated with a variety of natural antidepressants in many cases.
