trans fats.jpgMy colleagues on the Adult Care Blog have covered two mental health stories in recent days:

Meanwhile consumption of trans-fats, often to be found in junk and processsed food, is linked with depression in a new study. As ever, the question of whether those liable to depression are less likely to cook fresh food or have less money to spend on food needs to be borne in mind. But there does seem to be something in the link between food and the brain.

And finally, NICE has updated its recommendations on the treatment of generalised anxiety disorder.
