Food, mood and depression
https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/die...depression

EXCERPT: [...] Second, re-evaluate your food choices. Depression has long been linked to low-carbohydrate and low-calorie diets. Low carb dieters tend to become depressed about two weeks into the diet, about the time their serotonin (feel good neurotransmitter) levels have dropped due to decreased carbohydrate intake. Low carbohydrate dieters also report feeling chronically tired, angry, depressed, and tense. This is why nutritionists recommend that 55 to 65 percent of your daily calories should be carbs. Thus, make sure you’re getting complex carbohydrates in the form of whole grains. Why? Complex carbohydrates that are high in fiber and whole grain increase our level of tryptophan. Tryptophan is converted to serotonin (our “feel good” neurotransmitter), which elevates mood, suppresses appetite, and calms you down. However, eating too many carbohydrates makes you sleepy.

I have noted on at least two occassions the definite mood uplift after eating tomato based pasta dishes. At first I thought it might be something in tomatoes. But over time I have realized it has to do with the huge influx of carbs one undergoes from eating pasta. Pasta is carb dynamite. Depressed people should take note. It's not all about losing weight. It's also about staying in a good mood. Don't overdo it. Just make sure you feed your head along with your body.
