This week on Vitality Radio Podcast, Jared rants about the safety and efficacy of the class of drugs known as SSRIs which are prescribed for depression and anxiety. There are dangers going on/off the drugs, but also since the SSRIs aren’t as effective as advertised it requires patients to often take a cocktail of a few drugs. Is it safe to add more and more drugs to treat depression and anxiety? He also discusses whether the model of prescription medication due to low serotonin is the correct approach. Most patients don’t receive relief until weeks after starting their medications despite instantly receiving a boost in serotonin.Jared also shares natural supportive ways to treat depression and anxiety. First things first, look at the gut! It’s our second brain. He offers insight on supplements, vitamins, and lifestyle habits that you can take to help you address your depression and anxiety.You can follow us at @vitalityradio on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.
