Most of us know that food affects our weight and energy levels, but what if the food you are eating is actually having a profound impact on your mental health as well? New research suggests that eating unhealthily might actually play a causal role in mental illnesses such as depression and anxiety. In this episode, we speak to Professor Felice Jacka from Deakin University in Australia about her ground-breaking research into improving mental health just by improving lifestyle factors. What if you could feel less depressed by just eating better? This summer, there are more important reasons to eat better than just "looking good on the beach."
