The term "depression" is descriptive and vague. The best use of the term “depression’ in children is to point to a child who is unusually sad, critical and angry; a child who is not enjoying life and withdraws from school activities, play and close relationships with family and friends.  There a social causes of depression and there are biological causes. Often the two sets of causes converge into one big problem.

Biological: Many of the symptoms included under the title of “depression” are typical of common food-related diseases including  obesity, hormonal dysfunction and delayed pattern food allergy.

Depression Solution   The biological causes of depression require diet revision. We suggest that a prudent parent who sees  their child suffering depression and body symptoms would be wise to begin thorough diet revision at the earliest opportunity. Because brain dysfunction compromises judgment, learning and motivation, parents have to provide the right direction and support.
