Diets too low in complex carbohydrates can cause serotonin depletion and depression. Avoid phenylalanine supplements if you suffer from anxiety attacks. People suffering from manic depression should avoid choline, ornithine, and arginine. These substances may make the disorder worse. If taking MAO inhibitor drugs, avoid tyrosine. It can raise blood pressure. Also consume the following foods in moderation: avocados, cheese, chocolate, herring, meat tenderizer, raisins, sour cream, soy sauce, yeast extracts, yogurt, and wine and beer. Beware of hypoglycemia, allergies, hypothyroid, and malabsorption. In these conditions vitamin B12 and folic acid are blocked from entering the system, thus leading to depression. Keep your mind active and get plenty of rest. Avoid stressful situations as much as possible. Steroid drugs and oral contraceptives may cause serotonin levels in the brain to drop.
