I couldn't agree more! I have always been prone to severe depressive episodes, at a frequency of around once a week. It got really debilitating and was destroying my quality of life.
I noticed my depression seemed to correlate with my poor digestive health -- chronic constipation and frequent food poisoning. Once I started supplementing probiotics and eating a small amount of kimchi or kraut every day, my depressive episode frequency reduced to only once every few months (and my digestive symptoms disappeared).
There's a strong link between your gut and your brain.
This is anecdotal, but changing my diet changed my life for the better.
