Summary of Wellness Strategies, Self-Care Techniques, and Productivity Tips for Depression
Key Insights on Depression and Its Causes
- Depression can originate from both the brain (head) and the gut (stomach).
- Symptoms vary widely and include brain fog, panic attacks, insomnia, twitching, racing heart, and unexplained malaise.
- Traditional medical treatment often focuses on managing symptoms (e.g., antidepressants like SSRIs) rather than addressing root causes.
- Many antidepressants have significant side effects and may worsen gut issues or inflammation.
- The medical system often treats symptoms with medication but does not fully address underlying causes such as inflammation or autoimmune issues.
Critique of Conventional Medical Approach
- Doctors often prescribe medication without fully understanding or explaining the root cause.
- Psychological help (psychologists/psychiatrists) may not be effective if inflammation or gut health is the root cause.
- Antidepressants may only mask symptoms and can cause hormonal and metabolic side effects.
- Patients are encouraged to question and understand their treatment rather than blindly accept prescriptions.
Alternative and Holistic Approaches
1. Ketogenic Diet (Keto) for Brain Health
- The brain normally runs on carbohydrates but can switch to ketones, which are a more efficient fuel.
- Ketones are produced by the liver during ketosis and provide four times more energy than carbs.
- Starting a keto diet can reduce inflammation and improve mental clarity.
- Target ketone levels: 0.5 mmol/L as a minimum, therapeutic range around 3.7 mmol/L.
- High fat, moderate protein, low carbohydrate intake is essential.
- Keto mimics the natural fuel source from infancy (ketones in mother’s milk).

2. Gut Health and Autoimmune Considerations
- Gut inflammation and autoimmune reactions can trigger or worsen depression.
- Symptoms like histamine intolerance and IBS are common and linked to autoimmune issues.
- COVID-19 infection may trigger autoimmune problems in some individuals.
- Elimination Diet:
- Fast for 5 days (e.g., on egg yolks if tolerated).
- Gradually reintroduce foods one at a time, monitoring reactions.
- Identify and avoid allergenic or histamine-rich foods.
- Avoid “hed meat” (meat left unrefrigerated for over a day) due to histamine buildup.
3. Lion Diet (Carnivore Diet) for Autoimmune and Histamine Issues
- Consists mainly of fresh or frozen red meat (beef, venison, lamb).
- Avoid processed or aged meats to reduce histamine exposure.
- Consume 600–700g of red meat daily, increasing up to 1.5kg if well tolerated.
- Red meat provides essential vitamins (B12, iron) and healthy fats.
- Lamb is considered a lighter, more tolerable meat option.
- Avoid fish or other meats that may be less detoxifying or trigger reactions.
- This diet can reduce inflammation and improve mental and physical health.
- Important to source high-quality, fresh meat from butchers rather than supermarkets.
Additional Notes
- The quality and source of meat affect physical and mental well-being.
- The author experienced significant improvement by addressing gut health and switching to keto and carnivore diets.
- Self-experimentation and careful observation of symptoms are crucial.
- Medication should be approached cautiously and ideally under informed guidance.
Wellness and Self-Care Recommendations
- Recognize depression symptoms can stem from brain or gut inflammation.
- Question and understand medical prescriptions; don’t rely solely on antidepressants.
- Consider the ketogenic diet to reduce brain inflammation and improve mental clarity:
- High fat, low carb, moderate protein.
- Aim for ketone levels between 0.5 and 3.7 mmol/L.
- Use an elimination diet to identify food sensitivities and allergies.
- Try the Lion Diet (carnivore diet with fresh/frozen red meat) to address autoimmune and histamine issues.
- Avoid processed, aged, or “hed” meat due to histamine buildup.
- Source meat from trusted butchers to ensure freshness and quality.
- Monitor symptoms closely and adjust diet accordingly.
- Understand that mental health is deeply connected to diet, inflammation, and gut health.
