It isn't just depression, either.

Honestly, right now I can't find the review, but it was filled with bias anyway. What the well-designed studies showed and what the reviewers concluded from what the studies showed differs greatly.

YAY SCIENCE!

Edit: Science is wonderful, by the way. The problem is when scientists don't actually practice science.
Actually, my psychiatrist prescribed 2g of fish oil per day for depression. It was only after one month on fish oil that he also tried antidepressants (I currently take 30 mg of Wellbutrin and 2g fish oil per day, and try to get light to moderate exercise daily as well).

Also, I prefer fish oil because I don't mind swallowing large objects. Baby.

Then: if it works, it SHOULD be mainstream. And if it REALLY works, it just will be mainstream faster. "Complementary medicine".

The problem is that he did it terribly.

Again.

Just... stay away from the soapbox, okay, Zach? You boxes are always all moldy.

Kelly: "See, there's this thing called a g-spot..."
Zach: "Sorry, I only believe in evidence-based sex."

Also, Zach might want to read some studies in regards to things deemed "alternative medicine." Not all conventional medicine is evidence-based and not all evidence-based medicine is conventional.

That's not to say that going with a random "alternative medicine" treatment won't get you complete BS most of the time, but that's why it's important to read the studies in regards to efficacy and safety of conventional medicine treatments vs. efficacy and safety of "alternative medicine" treatments.


Edit: By the way, I am aware that the clitoris is not the g-spot. I would think that would be obvious from the first part of my post, but I know that some people will misread it.
