Anti depressants and violence, depression and sucide

Does the above happen. Yes it certainly does. There is this whole theory on depression and serotonin. Boost serotonin and you fix depression. Some believe it others say it is a lot more complex than that. Supposedly the aniti depressant boost serotonin in the brain. Ok. But did you know that there are a bunch of serotonin receptors in the gut. In fact as much or more in the gut.
All well and good, but did you know that eating fermented food improves your mood. Decrease anxiety and actually is a anti depressant. It is true. Apparently the probiotic bacteria communicate with the brain by way of the vagus nerve. We know this because when the vagus nerve is severed the anti depressant effect stops.
So lets talk about fermented foods ( home made ones actually work well and commercial ones not so much. They are a anti depressant and anti anxiety food. They reduce inflammation and that reduces pain. They reduce cravings and that means sweets. (You do know that surgar and carbs cause inflammation and heart disease). And frequently there is a weight loss because of this factor. Constipation goes away. Now that the study is out that inflammation is a major cause of AGEING, what do you have to lose by reincorporating this into your diet.
Absolutely nothing.
