Throughout my years of studying nutrition, working alongside physicians and researchers, and walking through my own battle with cancer, I've found that the experts I trust most consider the root causes of cancer to be the "three I's."

For years, we’ve been told that depression is mostly a "chemical imbalance" caused by low serotonin. However, research suggests the causes of depression are much more complex than abnormal levels of a single neurotransmitter.
