Depression isn’t about a broken brain — it’s about a broken gut. For years, big pharma pushed the idea that depression comes from low serotonin levels. But science now shows the real problem starts in your stomach, not your skull.
SSRIs, the drugs doctors love prescribing, don’t fix depression. Studies prove they’re no better than sugar pills for many people. Worse, they turn patients into emotional zombies — killing libido, numbing feelings, and even deepening despair. Yet drug companies keep pushing these dangerous pills instead of real solutions.
Nature already gave us answers. St. John’s wort calms inflammation, balances mood chemicals, and slashes stress hormones. But greedy corporations can’t patent this herbal remedy, so they smear it while pushing expensive drugs. This isn’t medicine — it’s robbery.
Your gut makes 90% of your serotonin and oxytocin. When bad bacteria take over, they pump out toxins that inflame your whole body. This gut fire spreads to the brain through the vagus nerve — the body’s information superhighway. Depressed people have missing “good” microbes and dangerous invaders like Morganella, which poison the mind through inflammation.
Antibiotics are gut bombs. They wipe out friendly bacteria that keep you happy, leaving space for mutants that wreck your mood. Once these protectors vanish, they might never come back. That’s why depression often hits after rounds of antibiotics — doctors ignore the gut while treating infections.
There’s hope in homemade super-yogurt. L. reuteri — a powerhouse probiotic missing in depressed people — rebuilds gut armies naturally. This breast milk bacteria fights germs without side effects, improves sleep, and melts stress. Big Pharma hates it because you can’t bottle real healing.
Mainstream medicine failed us. They pushed fake chemical imbalance theories to sell pills instead of fixing gut health. It’s time to take control — ditch drugs, nourish your microbiome, and let your body heal itself like God designed.
True healthcare starts in the kitchen, not the pharmacy. Dump the pills, ferment your food, and watch depression fade. Our ancestors didn’t need antidepressants — they had common sense and natural remedies. It’s time we listened to their wisdom instead of corporate lies.
