A lot has been said about the health benefits of fruit, vegetables, and whole grains, which feature in many highly recommended diets as a way to promote weight loss, heart health, and other benefits. But new research recently presented at the American Academy of Neurology’s annual meeting in Los Angeles suggests that these foods might have another benefit that doesn’t get mentioned as much: they could potentially reduce the risk of depression.
According to a report from iNews, a team of U.S. researchers found that people who adhered to the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet had a lower chance of suffering from depression at the end of the study period. Aside from fruit, vegetables, and whole grains such as brown rice, the plan also includes low-fat dairy, with little-to-no consumption of red meat, sugar, and saturated fat.
