Forget Zoloft and Play with Dirt



A UK Study at the Bristol University discovered that regular dirt bacteria might be help  against depression (wondering if this is the reason I like to play  with dirt?) Trials were conducted with mice. 


Evidently the friendly bacteria in soil  stimulates brain cells to produce Serotonin. I love that stuff. Can't get enough of it. So let's play with dirt.

Happy Gardening,

  1. I've read that one of the reasons that we get sick is that we don't get enough good bacteria, especially bacteria from soil. The people from Garden of Life use that theory in their products. Check out their probiotics if you are having any gastro problems.
