Healthy eating can overcome the symptoms of depression: study

Although many people agree that having your favorite ice cream can soothe your mind during a difficult phase of your life, a recent study suggests that dieting, essential nutrients and slimming diets can reduce the symptoms of depression.

In a new study published in Psychosomatic Medicine, a team of researchers gathered all existing data from clinical food trials for mental health issues.

The research provides compelling evidence that food improvement significantly reduces the symptoms of depression even in people without a diagnosed depressive disorder.

"The overall evidence of the effects of the diet on mood and mental well-being had not yet been evaluated.But our recent meta-badysis has rightly demonstrated that it can not be measured. Adopting a healthier diet can boost people's mood. It does not have clear effects on anxiety, "said Joseph Firth, principal investigator of the ######################################################################################## 39; study.

"This is actually good news.The similar effects of any type of food improvement suggest that highly specific or specialized diets are not necessary for the average individual," Firth said.

"Instead, simple, simple changes are also good for mental health, especially eating more nutrient dense, high fiber and vegetable meals while reducing fast foods and refined sugars. enough to avoid the potentially negative effects, psychological effects of a "junk food" diet, "he said.
