Advance Praise
for
Rebuild from
Depression
Rebuild from
Depression is going to be a very important book. Its dissection of
the role of diet and nutrition is well-researched and an
eye-opener. Medical science is beginning to greater value the study
of diet and particularly the role of nutrients in maintaining that
delicate bodily balance called health.
It may be that increases in depression can be tied to our
deteriorating eating habits in which manufactured food is
progressively displacing grown food. The medical community is
trying to correct the ravages of diabetes, high blood pressure, and
obesity and yet these diseases may represent the end-result of
dietary manipulation by industry. We need to address the cause of
these diseases: the food we are consuming is nutrient-shallow.
Rebuild from Depression helps us do just that. Dr. Amanda Rose
needs to be heard by the medical professionals as well as
laymen.

In the arena of depression where the push is one pill fits all, it
is refreshing to look at the holistic reality that depression has
many stems and many causes. Depression really requires us to view
this issue systemically, with care and honor for the client. Amanda
Rose, in her fine book, reminds us of that need in an open,
realistic discussion. I highly recommend this book for
practitioners and their clients.

Rebuild from
Depression by Amanda G. Rose, Ph.D., is full of useful information
for women, especially mothers and the people who support them. The
author examines the ways in which the nutritional demands of
pregnancy and the recovery period following childbirth can trigger
postpartum depression, and often contribute to a lifelong
depression. She presents a nutritional approach to providing
protection against postpartum depression, and ideas for overcoming
depression in women. As a doula, I'm looking forward to
recommending this book to my clients.

Testimonials
Two years
ago this week I was detained by the state of California and sent to
a mental hospital for a 72 hour evaluation after a visit to the ER.
I had not slept and barely eaten in 7 days. I was sure that God was
going to take me home and that I would die in the institution. My
baby was 9 weeks old. I turned a major corner about 3 weeks ago
after about 6 intense weeks of nutritional supplements, amino
acids, and traditional foods. I am convinced that rebuilding
through nutrition will cure me.
I am a skeptic about "cures" in general. When Amanda used to tell
me about depression and nutrition, I just did not get it. I thought
that I inherited mental illness from my father' side and there was
nothing I could do besides accept it and take medications. Then one
day, by the grace of God, a light bulb went on and it all made
sense. I am on the path to wellness now, as I call it. Knowing also
that Amanda is well and she had mental illness in her family made
me rethink my whole paradigm about mental illness.
My B-6 and zinc levels are already increasing after 2.5 months. I
had severe anemia and someone who I had not seen in a few months
looked at me and said "You have color in your face, my dear!"
It is never too late for you to get well and influence the
generations to come.

How
enlightening! Dr. Rose's personal story is inspiring, and her
advice for how I can take action in my own struggle with vitamin
deficiencies is empowering. I highly recommend her book for all
women whether they are simply hoping to be mothers in the future or
are struggling to regain their mental and physical health from past
pregnancies.

Amanda Rose,
Ph.D., has packed an amazing amount of useable information into
this must-read book. It not only addresses why people can suffer
from depression, but also how one can fix it. Thanks to Amanda, I
have learned to love liver.

Wow! I've
ignored all responsibilities in my life (other than my daughter and
the dog) over the last five days because I've spent every spare
minute my daughter was asleep reading Rebuild from Depression. From
my own similar journey, I do believe that God wants us to be
healthy and to thrive on the foods He gave us instead trying to
improve on what He has made perfectly. This book will lead people
to this truth and in the right direction.

Amanda's
book, Rebuild from Depression, and her story, have inspired me to
find a nutritional solution to my depression. I have used
homeopathy and nutritional supplements instead of the
antidepressants that I was on previously. Her well-researched,
informative book, along with her story, can help someone who is
looking for the root cause of her depression. Her troubleshooting
lists really help one to know where to begin to seek help for
nutritional support. And her recipes are great,
too!
