For decades, we’ve been told that anxiety and depression are caused by a “chemical imbalance”—a lack of serotonin in the brain. But this explanation simply isn’t true. Leading psychiatrists and researchers now agree that this theory is outdated and unsupported by science.
Tim Kendall, a respected psychiatrist and advisor to the British government, puts it bluntly: “I’ve reviewed the data, and it’s garbage.” Studies as far back as the 1970s found no significant difference in serotonin levels between people with depression and those without. What’s more, attempts to artificially lower serotonin in healthy individuals failed to create depressive symptoms—and some even reported feeling better.

Can depression be caused only by protein deficiency? Yes, this is actually possible! Learn now what you should pay attention to in the future. Every human being needs protein. This is because the essential amino acids it contains are the raw material from which we produce all the messenger substances in our brain. If we don’t eat enough protein at every meal, our brains can’t function properly. We become anxious, unfocused, tired and sooner or later depressed.
