Hey guys, I'm going to talk about two really important minerals in depression, okay?

So if you're depressed or you know someone who's depressed, have not watched this video.

Okay, so let's start with chromium.

If you research chromium depression, you'll get a lot of data, a lot of research on the

connection between chromium and depression, but they don't really tell you why it works.

And there's also if you type zinc and depression, you'll see a lot of other data as well, but

they're not really telling you why it works.

And the reason why these two minerals are very effective is because they both are

intimately involved in stabilizing blood sugars.

Chromium helps the blood sugars become stable.

A lot of diabetics prediabetics take chromium and they do very well.

If you're going to take chromium, you want to do 600 micrograms per day, okay?

And zinc is necessary for the production of insulin.

In fact, the cells that make insulin absorb a lot of zinc.

I have all the cells in the body.

Most of the zinc is in the cells that make insulin that's called beta cells in the pancreas.

So that's interesting.

So if you were going to use this, I would recommend 30 milligrams, okay?

So these two are really effective.
