Warning These 3 Foods Contribute to Your Depression

..................................................................................................... What we eat makes who we are, not only physically, but also psychologically. Consuming moderate amounts of the foods mentioned below will not make you depressed, but if you constantly eat any of them in large amounts, you might become down in the dumps. Save yourself from unwanted grief and avoid the following foods which may be delicious but will make you suffer on the long run. 3. Soft Drinks A very long time ago, when people got thirsty, they drank water. Then soft drinks appeared with their interesting colors, various flavors and refreshing fizz to supposedly quench our thirst with a fun factor. The fun of soft drinks is only temporary as studies show that drinking them regularly contributes to depression. 2. Refined Carbohydrates Foods made from refined carbohydrates such as bread, rice and pasta are categorized as inflammatory foods. Inflammatory foods are highly linked with depression. Hence, either limit the consumption of refined grains or replace them completely with whole grains.


1. Fast Food The disadvantages of eating fast food are uncountable, but when you add depression to the list, you must seriously consider eliminating them from your life. Fast food eaters are 51% more likely to suffer from depression than those who eat healthy meals. This means that you have to abandon foods like commercial pizza, hamburgers and hot dogs. You don’t have to say farewell once and for all for the above mentioned food to ensure your psychological wellbeing. Nonetheless, you should reduce their consumption as much as possible and replace them with foods that cheer you up. Remember that these foods also affect your physical health and add pounds to your weight. A great tip to stay away from these foods is to fill your idle time with enjoyable activities that make you happy instead of resorting to food for keeping yourself entertained.
