Tuore tutkimus yhdysvaltalaisaineistosta liitti sokerin syönnin masennusriskiin. 100g/vrk lisää sokeria liittyi 28 prosenttia suurempaan riskiin sairastua masennukseen.
Kysymyksessä on siis korrelaatio. JOS takana on kausaatiota, sitä voisi kenties olla kumpaankin suuntaan: masennus saa lohtusyömään makeita "herkkuja" ja/tai makeiden "herkkujen" syönti aiheuttaa masennusta.
Mitä arvelette?

Association between dietary sugar intake and depression in US adults: a cross-sectional study using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2011–2018
BMC Psychiatry volume 24, Article number: 110 (2024)
Abstract
Background
Studies examining whether diet sugar intake increases the risk of depression have produced inconsistent results. Therefore, we investigated this relationship, using the US’ National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database.
Methods
This cross-sectional study included 18,439 adults (aged ≥ 20 years) from NHANES (2011–2018). Depressive symptoms were assessed using the nine-item version of the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9). Covariates, including age, sex, race/ethnicity, poverty-income ratio, education, marital status, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease, alcohol intake, smoking status, physical activity, and dietary energy intake, were adjusted in multivariate logistic regression models. Subgroup and threshold saturation effect analyses were performed.
Results
After adjusting for potential confounders, we found that a 100 g/day increase in dietary sugar intake correlated with a 28% higher prevalence of depression (odds ratio = 1.28, 95% confidence interval = 1.17–1.40, P < 0.001).
Conclusion
Dietary sugar intake is positively associated with depression in US adults.
