Depression is something that a ton of people in the world today suffer from. It is not an easy thing to deal with. However, if you are someone who has it, then you must find how you can cope with it. It may be hard but there is always something that you can do to help yourself. Understanding where depression comes from is difficult as well. However, some doctors say that it can be caused by some brain inflammation.

Key Takeaways:

  • Some neurologists believe that depression is caused by brain inflammation and these inflammations are not readily noticed because the brain doesn’t have pain receptors.
  • People with chronic inflammation are at higher risk of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease because it causes inflammation of the brain, making the amygdala smaller.
  • The brain chemical deficiency model of depression is the model that scientists have been working on for very long time and it fuels Big Pharma producing harmful chemicals.

"Chronic inflammation is largely caused by unhealthy lifestyle habits such as poor diet, lack of physical exercise, and inadequate sleep, among others. These behaviors, while seemingly inconsequential initially, fuel the inflammation response long after it stops being helpful."

Curcumin is one of the chemicals that helps to make up turmeric. While turmeric has shown great benefits in the past, this specific portion is showing great promise in memory and even Alzheimer's disease. It was found to help improve memory in people who didn't have dementia and help clear up the plaques formed by Alzheimer's disease. It is also thought that this spice, highly common in Indian cooking, is another reason why there is such a low prevalence of Alzheimer's disease in India.

Key Takeaways:

  • Turmeric has been used for generations in traditional Indian medicines and is starting to gain traction in the US
  • Finding have shown that people improve memory function when taking turmeric
  • The curcumin has also show promise in clearing up the plaques formed by Alzheimer's disease.

"Those taking curcumin also had mild improvements in mood, and their brain PET scans showed significantly less amyloid and tau signals in the amygdala and hypothalamus than those who took placebos."

Subject: Stress, heart health, and the amygdala: Links explained





Though it is not clearly understood yet, studies show that psychological stress seems to have a connection with heart health, even including cardiac events and other major problems such as higher blood pressure, stroke, and angina. Higher levels of amygdala activity have been associated with increased risk of problems related to the heart, even when taking into account other risk factors.

Key Takeaways:

  • Long-term stress is linked to cardiovascular disease.
  • Psychological stress carries with it a wealth of ills.
  • Studies in animals have found that stress increases the manufacture of white blood cells in bone marrow.

"Long-term stress is linked to cardiovascular disease."
