I have read that taking cod liver oil can produce amazing results. I haven't started taking it yet, but it's on my list of things to try.

I was raised on the same kind of diet you were and found my postpartum depression worsening after each child, until it never let up. I found my depressive tendencies and now menopausal hormone shifts have nearly disappeared since being on a traditional diet. My daughters need a little more help with their PMS, and I have them on Maca and cod liver oil, as well as sunshine, fresh air and real food. It's amazing how a "small" thing like food can make all the difference.

What an encouraging story. We're actually still wondering about taking a good cod liver oil as a supplement so we can get more Vitamin D & A in our diets. So many people I know recommend doing it. I think it would really transform things for me, as I know my Vitamin D levels are too low. Just fifteen to twenty minutes in the sun makes me feel like a new person, but some days it's hard to manage even that! That's why I'm thinking about supplements.

Kim's story is only reaffirming this conviction. Thanks to both of you for sharing, and for submitting this post to Fight Back Fridays!
