I came across this interesting article* today.
There's something appealing in the idea that awful things like depression, and potentially anxiety, could ultimately come down to inflammation caused by seed oils and such, perhaps because, if true, it should be a simple problem to overcome. Stop the inflammation.
Last night my dad cooked me a dinner fried in plentiful rapeseed oil, and I've been feeling really down today, with absolutely no reason to feel that way. It's just there, a feeling of doom and gloom, and I can't help but make the connection to last night's dinner (be that an inverse placebo effect or not).
Can anyone point to any good studies that shed light on this (potential) relationship? Does anyone have any thoughts on this? It makes an awful lot of intuitive sense to me.
*I'm aware the article is flawed.
