mr. pixel Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/8644016.stm People who regularly eat chocolate are more depressive, experts have found. Research in Archives of Internal Medicine shows those who eat at least a bar every week are more glum than those who only eat chocolate now and again. oh no...

Plain Talker Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/8644016.stm People who regularly eat chocolate are more depressive, experts have found.

I could see a LACK of Chocolate as being a mitigating factor in depression... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojo1 Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Is the cause of depression eating the chocolate or the cause of eating the chocolate the feeling depressed? I go for months without eating chocolate and feel just as crap as I do when I do eat chocolate, so in at least one case it's complete rubbish.

DragonofAna Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 I eat tons of chocolate so should be a manic depressive in a padded cell with 24/7 guards watching me. I am quite a positive happy person ... but actually - I don't care. Chocolate. Yummy. Need more cadburys (but not the slimy galaxy chocolate cos that makes me ick).

medusa Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 The study linked to from the BBC isn't even referring to anyone with depression. They are referring to healthy people (nobody on an antidepressant or who has been diagnosed with depression) who are feeling a bit down- yet another enormous jump to link 'feeling glum' with clinical depression with no proof whatsoever that the two are actually linked.
