@gabrieldane A dear colleague of mine (physician) calls me at least once a week to remind me that I can and should say no, along with validating that my efforts are worthy. We all need people like that in our lives. Even as a retired doc (maybe 82?), his empathetic intuition is amazing, even as he feels he is losing other mental capacities. I now try to make a conscious daily effort to emulate the gift he gives me by doing the same to others. #empathy #MedMastondon #mentalhealth

This study seems to suggest that heavy red meat diets are Major depressive disorder protective, and that diets heavy in non-oily fish may either contribute, or not protect against MDD (somewhat to my dismay) https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36162666/ #MedMastondon

Causal influence of dietary habits on the risk of major depressive disorder: A diet-wide Mendelian randomization analysis - PubMed

In this two-sample MR analysis, we observed that higher beef intake may be protective against MDD. However, MDD did not appear to affect dietary habits. Potential mechanisms need to be further investigated to support our novel findings.
