I am very depressed and on several medications for my anxiety and depression, I have heard that lifestyle and nutrition could be used to reduce my dependence on medications. Where do I start and what are
the credentials of someone who knows how to use food as medicine?

Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

You can change your life style like do daily morning or evening exercise, spend weekend with friends, do activities that could make you happy etc. In diet, you can try vitamin b rich diet like non-veg food, egg etc. I think, you have to remember, such things give you effects gradually, so keep patience.

Thanks
