Today I want to cover some interesting natural remedies for obsessive-compulsive disorder. Common treatments for obsessive-compulsive disorder come with potential side effects, so it’s worth talking to your doctor about natural alternatives. OCD is a condition where you have obsessive thoughts or impulses to repeat routines. In my opinion, the best diet for obsessive-compulsive disorder is the Healthy Keto® diet. Intermittent fasting could also be beneficial. There are also incredible natural remedies for OCD that you can try, along with the keto diet and fasting. The best natural remedies for OCD: 1. Myo-inositol 2. NAC 3. Glycine 4. L-serine 5. Thiamine (vitamin B1) 6. Probiotic foods

0:00.0 | So today, we want to talk about some natural alternatives to OCD, |
0:05.6 | obsessive, compulsive disorder. Now, why should we even consider using natural remedies? |
0:11.6 | Well, simply because there's some slight minor complications to some of the treatments |
0:15.8 | involving with OCD. So you have medications like prozac, |
0:20.3 | selexa, zolof, paxil, effectser. All of these have major, major side effects. And the problem is, |
0:28.1 | once you start them, is there ever a point where you come off them that you're cured? |
0:33.9 | The answer is no. So you're going to be on them for a very, very long time. And for some people, |
0:38.4 | as time goes on, you need to take more and more of it. And so the more you take, the more side |
0:43.6 | effects you have. Other surgeries that have side effects include deep brain stimulation, |
0:49.9 | which is barbaric because you're literally drilling a hole in your head, putting a deep electrode |
0:56.0 | into your brain. And if you look this up, it says that it's safe and effective. But if you look |

1:16.7 | So is it really effective? I don't know. It sounds pretty invasive to me, especially since one |
1:23.3 | one study, I found 20% of the time. There's non-reversible symptoms, like problems with your gate, |
1:31.1 | problems with speech, problems with worsening of your symptoms. And there's even a treatment |
1:35.7 | called cycle surgery, which they remove part of your brain as a treatment. And in some cases, |
1:42.5 | they may even use ECT, the electroconvulsive therapy for this condition, which we all know is |
1:50.2 | extremely dangerous. That is why we're doing this video. We're going to talk about some other |
1:55.9 | alternatives that may be much better, much safer, and more effective. So what is this OCD? Well, |
2:02.3 | it's a situation where you have these obsessive thoughts impulses to repeat routines, whether it's |
