The thought is that it affects glutamate receptors in the brain, not so much serotonin. http://www.npr.org/blogs/health/2012/01/31/146096540/i-wanted-to-live-new-depression-drugs-offer-hope-for-toughest-cases Also interesting to note that the club drug, Special K, is now being marketed to treat depression.

Foods can play a big role in improving mood and making it worse! Food allergens and food intolerances can often make depression symptoms worse. Often increasing protein-rich foods (which break down to amino acids that feed all brain chemistry hormones) can really improve a person's mood. High protein foods like chicken, fish, beef, pork, lamb, eggs, tofu, nuts and protein shakes can balance blood sugar levels and feeds the brain with amino acids. Also vitamin D can play an enormous role in depression. There are so many factors, I only listed a few therapies in my post. Thanks for your comment! Dr. Julie I agree with you Jay.

I personally don't know much people that wore cured only with the help of those therapies. People from what I saw talk only about drugs and alternative therapies, but they do not talk about FOOD. Food regime, is probably one of the main causes of low levels of anything.
