I definitely believe there is a connection to physical health and mental health. Just about everytime I go through a bout of clinical depression, I test positive for mono. I haven't even bothered to get tested this time around, because there is nothing they can do for mono anyways.
I have hemochromatosis, which means I absorb to much iron from my diet. Too much iron definetly causes havoc on ones brain, and there is a very strong connection between hemochromatosis and depression and mental illness. Too much iron also feeds bacteria, viruses and cancer. Hereditary hemochromatosis is the most common genetic disorder in North America, yet it is misdiagnosed upto 90% of the time. Even just being a carrier increases your iron levels. 1 in 7, people is a carrier of hemochromatosis.
It you haven't been checked, do so, it may help. The solution is simple, they just take a lot of blood from you, and you become a very good blood donor. You actually help others by helping yourself.
