OK, so if happiness improves health, how do we improve happiness? That’s the subject of my next video: Which Foods Increase Happiness? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/which-foods-increase-happiness).
I’m as guilty as the rest of my colleagues for focusing on mental illness rather than mental health (though my video Laughter as Medicine http://nutritionfacts.org/video/laughter-as-medicine is a rare exception). It's a consequence of what’s out there in the medical literature, though I’ll make a special effort to highlight new studies in this area as they’re published. But I do have a bunch of videos on preventing and treating negative mood states such as depression and anxiety:
• Fighting the Blues with Greens? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/fighting-the-blues-with-greens-mao-inhibitors-in-plants/)
• Aspartame and the Brain (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/aspartame-and-the-brain/)
• Improving Mood Through Diet (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/improving-mood-through-diet/)
• Antioxidants and Depression (http://nutrititionfacts.org/video/Antioxidants-and-Depression)
• Can Dehydration Affect Our Mood? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/can-dehydration-affect-our-mood)
• Music for Anxiety: Mozart vs. Metal (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/music-for-anxiety-mozart-vs-metal)
• Plant-Based Diets for Improved Mood and Productivity (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/plant-based-diets-for-improved-mood-and-productivity)
• Anti-inflammatory Diet for Depression (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/anti-inflammatory-diet-for-depression)
What about psychiatric medications? See my videos Do Antidepressant Drugs Really Work? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/do-antidepressant-drugs-really-work/) and Exercise vs. Drugs for Depression (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/exercise-vs-drugs-for-depression).
Other ways to improve our immune system? Check out my recent video Using the Produce Aisle to Boost Immune Function (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/using-the-produce-aisle-to-boost-immune-function).
Have a question for Dr. Greger about this video? Leave it in the comment section at http://nutritionfacts.org/video/are-happier-people-actually-healthier and he'll try to answer it!
