London: A recent study says that “People who intake’s more processed food in their diet are on an increased risk of depression”

To reach the conclusion, researchers at University College London examined the link between the diet and depression.

People who eats lots of vegetables, fruits, and fish in their diet are less prone to depression, says a leading author Dr Archana Singh

"There was a paper showing a Mediterranean diet was associated with a lower risk of depression but the problem with that is if you live in Britain the likelihood of you eating a Mediterranean diet is not very high,” The BBC quoted Dr Archana as saying.

“So we wanted to look at bit differently at the link between diet and mental health," she added.

Dr Andrew McCulloch, chief executive of the Mental Health Foundation further said: "This study adds to an existing body of solid research that shows the strong links between what we eat and our mental health”.
