Trying to find a solution for my inability to digest plants https://github.com/cutestuff/FoodDepressionConundrum/blob/ma...

latest success seems to be probiotic for oxolate-digestion, which now helps me digest green salad. For a test I tried green onions, but got anxiety back. Being able to digest onions and garlic would enrich my food choices a lot.

I doubt there's money to be made from all this material, except I could offer some coaching, but pretty much everything I know is in this little repo

Reading the repository readme, on one hand I feel incredibly sorry for you, on the other super excited that you've found something that works for you. Depression is such a wide catch all term and there are countlessly many underlying reasons that can lead to it. Unfortunately that also means that curing depression is always a bespoke effort, every person suffering with it is different so it's very hard to try and figure out what helps. I had no idea food could be linked so strongly! I hope what you've found is sustainable and leads you to a better tomorrow.

spread it around, everybody knows someone with depression and if 30% of ppl respond to change in diet you'll improve the world a lot
