This time of year, when it’s cold and dreary outside, many people struggle with the winter blues and find it difficult to maintain a good mood and a positive outlook on life.
Struggling with symptoms like fatigue, lack of energy or motivation, and loss of interest in activities you normally enjoy can all be indicators of seasonal depression. Psychologists have named this type of depression “seasonal affective disorder” or SAD syndrome for short. And it’s surprisingly common.
If you think you’ve got the winter blues or SAD syndrome, here are a few ways to help:
Make sure you’re maintaining basic healthy habits like getting enough sleep, exercising regularly, and eating nutritious foods. These are important, but often overlooked ways to help maintain good mental health hygiene if you’re prone to seasonal depression.
But if you’re already implementing healthy lifestyle habits and still find yourself struggling to battle the winter blues, it may be time to double-check whether you’re getting enough vitamins. Hint: most Americans aren’t.
Through diet alone, it can be difficult to get all the vitamins you need to support your overall health, and deficiencies can easily develop over time. But did you know that not getting enough vitamins can negatively impact your mood?
Vitamin C and B group vitamins, along with minerals such as zinc, magnesium, and calcium are all important for brain health and normal brain functioning. Insufficient intake of B group vitamins has been associated with higher levels of neural inflammation, oxidative stress, and depression.
This is why supplementing your wellness care with IV vitamin therapy can be so beneficial. Rather than relying on just your diet to get sufficient vitamin intake, IV vitamin therapy ensures essential vitamins and micronutrients are being delivered directly to your bloodstream.
If you find yourself feeling blue and lacking in energy this winter, it may be the seasonal changes in weather that have you feeling down.
At RevIVeDoc, we understand the importance of feeling good regardless of the season. That’s why we developed the Good Mood IV to give you the vitamins and building blocks you need to boost your mood when you need it most.
Rather than taking a pill, or powder, our Good Mood IV delivers vitamins directly to the bloodstream for maximum absorption. Our unique blend of IV vitamin B-complex, vitamin C, glutamine, inositol, tryptophan, glycine, magnesium, and alpha lipoic acid works to address the root cause of vitamin-deficiency related mood disorders:
Our Good Mood IV blend can also incorporate phenylalanine and tyrosine, which are both serotonin and dopamine precursors that help give your brain the building blocks it needs to feel good. For specific recommendations on what exact blend is best for your wellness goals, consult with a board-certified neurologist that specializes in IV vitamin therapy.
