If depression was caused by a simple difficency
RI's would fix that. BLAM ! no depression. Too bad
it does not work that way.The science of measuring NT's in places other than
blood and CSF, ie in the places it is thought to count in the context of MI, is expermental."Evidence for a serotonin deficiancy was based on the idea that serotonin metabolite levels 5-htaa were low in the brains of suicide victoms."
I suspect they were looking at CSF. Do post mortum
levels corralate in any way to levels when someone is alive ?
