One more... also saw a book this weekend titled Potatoes Not Prozac, and while I didn't get a chance to read it through the premise of the author seems to be that the sugar- and processed- and white- diet that pervades north america these days sends the insulin curve to whack, and that in turn can lead to mood swings, depression, the blahs, etc. In some ways, it parallels what was noted in Supersize Me. I can't really comment more, as I haven't read it, but given the supposed increase in ADD/HD kids (and depressed adults) it woudln't surprise me to find a good link there.
