Study finds that high-fat foods can alleviate low mood

Brussels, August 3: Many health knowledge remind people to beware of the "health burden" of high-fat foods. However, Belgian researchers have discovered that this kind of food can affect the brain through the stomach and relieve bad emotions, but this discovery can not be used as a basis for the depressive person to eat Heisei.

A research team from the University of Louvain in Belgium recently released a research report saying that this group recruited 12 volunteers who were normal weight and let them see a group of sad pictures, listen to melodic music, and use functional magnetic resonance. Imaging technology scans their brains.

Subsequently, the researchers injected fatty acids into the stomach of half of the volunteers through a feeding tube, which was the main component of triglycerides. The stomach of other volunteers was injected with saline. In order to prevent participants from associating with food and affecting mental activity, they were not informed in advance what they were eating.

The results showed that sentimental music and pictures made the volunteers' emotions low, but volunteers who consumed fatty acids had 50% less grief than those who consumed saline. This is because when the fatty Acid is injected into the stomach of the former, the activity of the brain parts related to its sad mood is suppressed.

Dr. Lucas van Odenhofer, head of the research group, said: "It seems that eating fat can reduce our level of sadness." Researchers also believe that the above findings are for obese people, eating disorders and depression patients. Treatment may be important. In future in-depth studies, the team will strive to recruit more volunteers.

Giovanni Chiza, an expert from the National Institute of Diabetes, Digestive and Kidney Diseases of the United States, commenting on the findings of the study, said that without sensory stimulation, people do not know what is in the stomach, after the stomach is exposed to different foods. There must be ways to communicate with the brain separately. However, health experts also warned that if certain health indicators of people with long-term mood depression are already abnormal, it would be bad for them to rely on high-fat foods to alleviate their anxiety.
