If that's the case, how would fasting work? Wouldn't it just reliably deprive you from nutrients hence give you a depression?

- aszantu 7y agoI don't know why, but there are a lot of people where fasting works for depression. Then there are ways of eating which seem to have an effect like low fodmaps. Etc.
- icandoit 7y agoBeing the kind of person that is willing to experiment to solve their problems is better than being a person that is miserable and changes nothing. A random walk may not get you out a bad situation, but staying put is strictly worse less likely to get you out. What would a reinforcement learning agent do?

- aszantu 7y agoanti nutrients causing inflammation(body uses nutrients to fight inflammation), leaving them out calms the inflammation and the body can use the nutrients it has better. Btw. supplementing zinc and magnesium seems to help ppl with depression. Lectins(all seeds) as in beans, nuts, corn and wheat are binding to iron and zinc, I forgot what was with the magnesium, but it played a role as well...
