Eating foods high in trans-fats (fats prent in artificial form in industrially-produced cakes and ) and saturated (饱和的) fats increas the risk of depression, according to a Spanish study, confirming previous studies that linked “junk food” with the dia. Rearchers also showed that some products, such as olive oil, can fight against the risk of mental illness.
Authors of the wide-reaching study, from the universities of Navarra and Las Palmas, followed and analyzed the diet and lifestyle of over l2,000 volunteers over six years. When the study began, none of the participants had been diagnod with depression; by the end, 657 of them were new sufferers.
“Participants with an incread consumption of trans-fats prented up to a 48 percent increa in the risk of depression when they were compared to participants who did not con
sume the fats,” the head study author said. “The more trans-fats were consumed, the greater harmful effect they produced in the volunteers.”
The rearch team found, at the same time, that after asssing the effect of polyunsaturated fats made up of larger amounts of fish and vegetable oils and olive oil, the products are associated with a lower risk of suffering depression.
The report, published in the online journal PLOS ONE, noted the rearch was
performed on a European population that enjoys a relatively low intake of trans-fats—making up only percent of the total energy taken in by the volunteers. “Despite this, we obrved an increa in the risk of suffering depression of nearly 50 percent,” said rearcher Miguel Martinez. “On this basis we think it of great importance to take this effect into account in countries like the United States, where the percentage of energy derived from the fats is around percent.”
The report pointed out that the current number of depression sufferers in the world is aro
und l50 million people, and has incread in recent years. This ri is attributable, according to the authors, “to great changes in the sources of fats consumed in Western diets, where we have replaced certain types of beneficial fats in nuts, vegetable oils and fish with the saturated and trans-fats found in meats, butter and other products such as mass-produced cakes and fast food.”

When I was younger, bedtime was always my favourite part of the day. Wearing soft pajamas and with Ian, my stuffed monkey, in my arms, I felt no pressure at all.
I named Ian after my uncle when I compared Ian’s long arms and legs to his. One night I ran up to Uncle Ian at a family party and told him I had named my
