A study published in the British Journal of Psychiatry has revealed that people who ate mainly alkalising foods such as vegetables, low sugar fruits and oily fish were less likely to get depression 6 years later, compared to those who ate highly acid-forming foods such as meat and bread.
The researchers at University College London examined the link between the diet and depression by studying data from 3,500 civil servants who were ‘middle aged’ and discovered those who ate lots of vegetables, low-sugar fruit and fish had a 26 per cent lower risk of future depression. The combination of these highly alkalising foods (including omega-3, too) decreased the risk of depression.
