Depression Therapy

Antidepressants may do more than improve the mental health of people with both hiv and depression. New study findings suggest the treatment may also bolster patients' compliance with their hiv medications.

In a study of hiv-positive people seen at denver public health clinics, researchers found that among the patients with depression, those who were on antidepressants were more likely to be compliant with their antiretroviral hiv drugs.

Depression Increases Mortality Risk In Diabetics

The results of a new study confirm that people with diabetes are prone to depression. The findings also show that depression significantly increases the likelihood that people with diabetes, but not those without diabetes, will die over a 10-year period.

I feel depression in my life and my work give me more pressure than happiness.
I don't know what to do.

Depression And Insulin Resistance

"the results of a new study confirm that people with diabetes are prone to depression. The findings also show that depression significantly increases the likelihood that people with diabetes, but not those without diabetes, will die over a 10-year period."

there are many studies to confirm the association between depression and insulin resistance.


This leads to a new approach to the treatment of depression see:

"depression and nutritional disorder" at our web site.
