Natural remedies for anxiety:
For those who are weary of taking
anxiety-reducing medications such as valium and desire a
more natural approach to this condition here are some
ideas that might help from articles in the October 2004
edition of the ‘Townsend letter for doctors and
patients.’
- 12
grams a day of inositol a member of the B vitamin
family has been shown to reduce symptoms of anxiety
over a 4 week period. Inositol can also be used to treat panic disorder as
well as bulimia nervosa and binge eating.
- Deficiencies
of vitamins B1, B3, B6 and B12 might be implicated.
- Low
blood sugar, excessive caffeine and alcohol
consumption might trigger symptoms.
- One
researcher has found that supplementation with 200mg
of magnesium improves nervousness and reduces
insomnia.
- Herbal
remedies sush as lavender and lemon balm.
