TOXINS LINKED TO DEPRESSION

Depression is a growing problem across America. Some reports state that 17.5 million Americans suffer from depression and the statistics on teen depression are even more sobering.

According to one Surgeon General’s report one in ten children may have a serious emotional problem People with severe depression have a reported suicide rate as high as 15%, making it potentially the number one cause of suicide in the United States.

Americans end up spending billions of dollars on ineffectual and harmful pharmaceuticals to handle depression. Researchers are finding evidence that the cause may be the increasing chemical build-up in our bodies.

The University Pathology Consortium, a not-for-profit academic consortium founded and owned by medical school departments of 6 leading Universities including Stanford, recently attributed some of the symptoms of depression to the effects of medication, drug abuse and exposure to toxins.

“Environmental toxins have increased so much over the last 50 years and are now found in everything from grit on the ground to the make up a woman uses to powder her nose,” says Dr Harry Wong, the Director of Alternative Medicine at the Physicians Plus Medical Group in the San Francisco Bay area.

“Pesticides, toxic mold and harsh chemicals have all become prevalent in our country and toxic chemicals are used in our homes.”

Dr. Wong and his colleagues follow the latest research and treat their patients complaining of depression by looking for underlying reasons, like toxic overload in the system. Even common pesticides used in homes and lawns are now being shown to accelerate aging of the immune and nervous system resulting in serious health problems years after exposure.

“We often see patients who have feelings of depression and one of the first things we suspect is an environmental influence.”

Wong recommends a program based on the book Clear Body, Clear Mind by L. Ron Hubbard, which covers his extensive research into the effects of toxic build up on physical and mental conditions.

“Clear Body, Clear Mind” outlines a simple and effective program to purify the body of past build up of toxins and chemicals. While the book makes o medical claims it outlines a simple yet effective procedure to reduce the toxic build up in the body Over 250 000 people worldwide have completed the program based on the book.

“We routinely see a marked improvement in our patients who do this program,” says Dr Wong. “They think more clearly, have more energy and they are definitely happier.”
