>> I don't think depression effects what you absorb, but instead what is causing your depression is causing that effect.
<<I guess that's kind of what I meant. If my depression is a chemical imbalance (and I have no clue what may cause that), does that chemical imbalance affect the way my body absorbs nutrients?When I was deeply depressed, I was shocked to see how many physical symptoms I had as well.
> About the candida thing... do you live mostly off of sugar and/or alcohol? Do you get sugar cravings where you consume large amounts of sugar without knowing why? Some binge eating is caused by that.
<<Hmmm, don't know much about that (Candida) either. I have had episodes of being addicted to sugar, and yes, I'll get sugar cravings after eating sugar....but I'm eating pretty darned healthy these days, so that hasn't been a problem. :-)
>>I gave up sugar some time last year, eating junk food for the first time today in a significant amount of time.
<<Ah! What triggered that? Hate it when that happens. :-)
