Canned salmon is widely available and can be had fairly inexpensively. I just got a half dozen cans for two bucks each at the Grocery Outlet, a discount food store on the west coast. But canned food is exposed to high heat to make it shelf stable. Fats such as Omega 3s can be delicate….
Meat Loaf Recipe: Mom’s Secrets On Video
I present below Mom’s meat loaf recipe, an often-requested recipe and one that I thought I posted three years ago. I have actually searched this site several times over the last year looking for Mom’s recipe and scratched my head, puzzled that it was not on this site nor on YouTube. From deep in the…
Help Build The Iron Rich Foods Site
Iron Rich Foods Website Iron is an important nutrient for brain health. Low iron levels have been implicated in postpartum depression in particular. Iron deficiency is common in both women and children — rates are nearly 10% in both groups. Your child’s pediatrician bird-dogs your child’s iron levels (I hope) because iron is critical in…
Oyster Nutrients: A Depression-Fighter
Oyster is a nutrition powerhouse. It is a great source of zinc, iron, and vitamin B-12–key depression-fighting nutrients. In fact, it is so high in those vitamins and minerals that I consider oyster to be a “depression buster food” as I describe in the Rebuild from Depression book. But what to do with oysters? Do…
New Design
No, you did not stumble onto the wrong website. It’s still us, just looking a lot different. It looks like we fairly successfully migrated the site from a Movable Type platform over to WordPress. We thought about giving MovableType a hip and knee replacement, but decided to embrace the WordPress era. (Besides, Six Apart, the…

Fermentation Crock! Fun Stuff in My Kitchen
Fermentation Crock: Seasons are changing here in the Sequoia National Forest. Our summer garden works to provide the last bit of nutrition and good eating for our household. It never reached the peak of “Oh goodness, what *will* we do with all of this?” but as we grow nostalgic already, we look to preserving the…
Fish Oil For Depression? Dose?
Fish Oil for Depression Fish oil for depression? We have all been hearing a lot about the benefits of fish oil for depression in the news and, the fact is, our brains are made up of the same beneficial fat found in fish oil. A healthy brain is a fatty brain, particularly an Omega 3-loaded…
Canadian depression study: “Take your Omega 3s”
Last week a new study on Omega 3s was published in the Journal of Clinical Psychiatry. Four hundred and thirty-two (432) people participated in this 8-week study in which participants received either Omega 3 fatty acids or sunflower oil. After the eight week study period, those treated with Omega 3s did improve on a self-reported…
Where can I buy coconut oil?
“Where To Buy Coconut Oil?” It’s a good question if you’re new to the product. There are a lot of extremely high-priced products out there, most of which I have tried. I used to guard it like the gold that it was but then found a great deal and have less need for restraint. I…
Whoa, look at the margarine!
You have probably noticed that I use a lot of graphs on this site. I actually do a lot of reporting in my day job using data visualizations. If you have purchased either of the digital papers at the Rebuild Market you know they center around these same sorts of data visualizations. I programmed a…

Life After Depression
There really is life after depression. I am so excited by that point, in fact, that I neglect this blog and find fun/quirky projects to do with my family. We live in the Sequoia National Forest in a house (and former brothel) designed by Irving Gill. My 7-year-old son Frederick and I chronicle our adventures at Gill on the Hill when we're not exploring. Frederick posts some of his homeschool projects at "Frankly Frederick."
