Supporting Gut Health is an Effective Celexa Alternative Strategy
Research on the importance of healthy gut flora has blossomed recently, with astounding insights and ramifications on the effects of a healthy gut microbiome on mental health.4 You can get proactive about the health of your microbiome easily by ensuring the good bacteria in the gut are getting the sustenance they need to be dominant over the bad bacteria. The “bad” or harmful bacteria feed on sugar, toxins, pathogens, and other detrimental substances. 
Antibiotics can disable the good bacteria along with the bad, disrupting the microbiome of the gut, This condition can induce depression and anxiety in some persons.5 If antibiotics are needed, one should supplement with probiotics to counteract their effects. It’s could be likened to a war. You want to make sure the good team has the ammo and reinforcements that it needs for success.
The entire body requires proper fuel to work efficiently. But the gut in particular thrives best when adequate fruits and vegetables are provided daily, as well as daily consumption of fermented foods like yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, or even pickles, which all support the fermentation process that the gut uses to maintain healthy flora. Then, the gut can produce the neurotransmitters that are to be distributed from the intestines to the rest of the body including the CNS, the brain, and in fact every cell in the body.
The good bacteria thrive on prebiotics like fruits and vegetables to be able to live and regenerate, and the fermented foods add super fuel to the mix. Probiotic supplements like Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium can enhance the microbiome so that the body has adequate production of the neurotransmitters that are used in mood regulation, and thousands of other functions required for mood regulation, cell regeneration, cell repair, blood and heart health, healthy neurotransmission between cells, and uncountable other functions that support mental wellness.
Design Your Diet for Mental Wellness
A diet rich in fruits and vegetables, proteins, and micronutrients is a pillar for mental wellness. Diet definitely plays a huge role in supporting mental wellness and as such is an often overlooked alternative to Celexa. Such a diet plan would limit or completely avoid sugars, chemical preservatives, pesticide-laden produce, and omit red meat that was raised with antibiotics for the best results in terms of energy, mental clarity, and a robust immune system.6
Neurotoxins — Common Culprits in Psychiatric Symptoms
Neurotoxins are increasingly common in our every day environments. These are especially concerning where toxic substances have accidentally leaked into our water, air, and soil, but also because they are commonly intentionally used in the production of processed foods, personal hygiene products, or household goods.7
Alternative to Meds uses a chelative sauna process to cleanse these accumulations and is a popular and life-changing action. Safely and gradually stopping drug use invigorates natural neurotransmitter rehabilitation. While helping the body to shed drug residues and other contaminants, a wealth of spa services is offered at the center’s Detox Shoppe to provide comfort and relaxation.
Gradual Withdrawal Supported by Celexa Alternatives
SSRIs can be difficult to withdraw from without proper support.8 Alternative to Meds Center has refined the process of safe and gradual withdrawal with the use of Celexa alternative treatments. Doing so softens and reduces the adverse withdrawal effects, because the body is given the raw materials with which it can begin to function well, while the interference of psychoactive drugs is gradually diminished.
Some examples of helpful Celexa alternatives used in holistic detox can include targeted IV treatments, nebulized glutathione, therapeutic massage, sauna cleansing, orthomolecular targeted nutrients, and more.
Enhance Recovery with Comfort Therapies
A wide range of comfort therapies is offered at ATMC. These Celexa alternative treatments have a dual purpose. They are designed to accelerate the recovery process and also provide a significant reduction of any discomfort that is typically associated with coming off an SSRI.
Examples of comfort techniques used during recovery can include:

Addressing Sleep Issues is Vital
Sleep is when the body does its best healing processes. Often, coming off an SSRI like Celexa can introduce or worsen sleep issues. Research has found that exposure to blue light/artificial light at night has a detrimental effect on sleep and cognitive function as well as physical and psychiatric negative symptoms. Taking care to avoid such exposures is a good strategy for many reasons, including better sleep.
There are many drug-free ways to improve quality and duration of sleep. ATMC uses a wide variety of non-toxic Celexa alternatives, specifically tailored to individual needs, to promote better, restful sleep.13-15
Talk Therapy is an Excellent Celexa Alternative
CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) and other forms of counseling delivered at ATMC can help a person identify and elect to change negative or challenging thought and behavior patterns that may have led to chronic issues such as depression or anxiety. Past traumas or other events can be gently eased and can be an important tool in discovering and resolving root causes for lingering symptoms. Studies have shown CBT to be as effective as medication for relief of symptoms such as anxiety, insomnia, depression, eating disorders, and many other troubling issues.16
