Just received an email from psychcentral with links to various articles. The top story was about the link between diet and depression - specifically junk food:

Quote:
There is a direct relationship between eating fast food or commercial baked goods (doughnuts, cakes, croissants) and the risk of developing depression, according to a recent study by scientists from the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and the University of Granada.

Of course, it makes we wonder which is cause and which effect. I mean maybe the junk food isn't causing the depression. Maybe depressed people are more likely to grab junk food because they don't have the energy or interest to prepare a proper meal.
