A product called Sunny Moods had always been my go-to but hated the size of pills plus they added some ingredients I could no longer use. I could never find a comparable formula.

Great ingredients, lemon balm, passionflower and rhodiola. 25% off here, including this brand: https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/theriseabovelyme

I gathered the newest research on the gut and depression connection here so you can understand it and share it with your doctor. Short on time or energy? A quick-view graphic with the

We would like to point out that people shouldn't just blindly supplement with Zinc. It important to balance minerals and there's a lot of reasons behind it.

It's interesting because I had to space out how often I took it because I was feeling bad. But when I adjusted Zinc, I improved. I put info on that at bottom. 25% off Zinc here. Search
