Science tells us that fall and winter can have a particularly bad effect on our moods. Less daylight and cold temperatures mean less time outdoors. It also means increased melatonin production, a hormone which makes us sleepier. Additionally, there’s a peculiar disorder called Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), colloquially known as winter depression. How it works is not clear, but it seems to affect people only during the colder months, after which they return to their normal state. So one thing is clear – people need a pick-me-up in the winter and natural supplements are often their first choice. Here are 7 must-haves for your shelves.

Omega-3
Omega-3 supplements are something like the heavyweight champion in the industry. The concentration of Omega-3 fatty acids seems to be particularly high in the brain. Thus, insufficient intake has been linked with symptoms of depression, general fatigue and poorer cognitive performance. That’s what makes Fish Oil and other sources of Omega-3 (such as Flax Seed) a go-to supplement for those affected by the winter blues.
Maca Root
Maca Root Extract is preferred by health-conscious people for its numerous beneficial properties. It has been shown to aid in the treatment of depression, alleviate anxiety and help with mood swings. Additionally, it’s a popular choice with men for being a testosterone booster, leading to a higher sperm count and a stronger libido. In women it is known to aid hormonal balance and thus decrease symptoms of PMS. Be sure to point these out when marketing your Maca Root supplements.
Krill Oil
Krill Oil is another supplement that has been receiving a lot of attention in recent years. Since Krill Oil is a good source of Omega-3s, it exhibits the same anti-depressant and mood support properties. It also displays powerful antioxidant properties and some studies suggest it might alleviate PMS symptoms. Thus, the product is frequently marketed among the female audience.
Ginseng
The roots and the leaves of the Ginseng plant have been used in traditional Chinese medicine for several thousand years now. Ginseng supplements exhibit a wide array of health benefits – they can help with digestive issues, promote better sleep and ease depressive symptoms. Men and sports enthusiasts often reach for ginseng supplements because they boost athletic performance and may decrease the occurrence of impotence.
Cod Liver Oil
Cod Liver Oil provides all the amazing health benefits of Fish Oil, but has a long list of unique benefits as well. With its high levels of Vitamin A and Vitamin D, it offers bone strengthening properties and can help with certain eye conditions. Vitamin D is a sought-after supplement ingredient in the winter, since there is not enough light for the human body to synthesize its own.
DHEA
DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone) is a steroid hormone that plays an important role in the synthesis of sex hormones. Its natural synthesis, however, decreases with age which makes it a popular supplement with the elderly. Another reason to market it with an older audience is a NIMH study that showed its efficiency in alleviating midlife depression, even when traditional anti-depressants failed. The properties it exhibits may improve sexual arousal in both men and women.
Klamath Blue Green Algae
Klamath Blue Green Algae are an ancient microscopic strain of algae that are found in the Klamath Lake in Oregon. Klamath Blue Green Algae supplements help manage symptoms of depression and offer other cognitive benefits as well. They are an energy booster that also stimulates the mind and may fight symptoms of fatigue, help with ADHD symptoms and improve both short-term and long-term memory.
