A Six Point Program to Reverse Postpartum Depression, Part 1
November 17, 2015
Postpartum depression is a serious problem that confronts a high percentage of new mothers. Pharmacological fixes offer only partial relief with the risk of serious side effects. Dr. Shoshana Bennett, Ph.D. is a psychologist who specializes in postpartum depression and pregnancy-related problems. She outlines a 6 point program to head off or reverse postpartum symptoms. It is comprised of lifestyle modification with diet, exercise, and optimal sleep, as well as sound mental hygiene principles. Supplements, too, may play a role in preventing or ameliorating postpartum depression, especially the Omega 3 fatty acids, EPA and DHA. How can you tell if you just have a normal case of short-term “postpartum blues,” or a full-blown case of postpartum depression? How can partners be part of the solution? How to eat strategically to ward off symptoms? What role do wildly fluctuating hormones play? How do Omega 3s offer dual benefits—to Mom, as well as her offspring? Click HERE for part 2.
