Fast Food Is Depressing

Fast Food Is Depressing

“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. The findings reveal that consumers of fast food are 51 percent more likely to develop depression than minimal or non-consumers. Furthermore, the connection between the two is so strong that ‘the more fast food you consume, the greater the risk of depression,’ said Almudena Sánchez-Villegas, Ph.D., lead author of the study.”
 — Additionally, fast-food consumers are lonely, vegetable-averse smokers who work a lot. Does this describe YOU OR SOMEONE YOU KNOW? Probably. Sad.
