Eating a diet high in processed food increases the risk of depression, research suggests. What’s more, people who ate plenty of vegetables, fruit and fish actually had a lower risk of depression, the University College London team found.
Data on diet among 3, 500 middle-aged civil servants were compared with their emotional state five years later, a British journal reported. They split the participants into two types of diet—those who ate a diet largely based on whole food, which includes lots of fruit, vegetables and fish, and those who ate a mainly processed food diet, such as sweetened desserts, fried food, processed meat, refined grains and high fat dairy products. After accounting for factors such as gender, age, education, physical activity, smoking habits and chronic(慢性的)diseases, they found a significant difference in the future depression risk with the different diets.
Those who ate the most whole food had a 26% lower risk of future depression than those who ate the least whole food. By contrast, people with a diet high in processed food had a 58% higher risk of depression than those who ate a diet low in processed foods.
Study author Dr. Archana Singh Manoux pointed out there was a chance that the finding could be explained by lifestyle factor they had not accounted for. He also pointed in a paper that a Mediterranean diet was associated with a lower risk of depression, but the problem with that is if you live in Britain, the likelihood of you eating a Mediterranean diet is not very high.
Dr. Andrew McCulloeh, chief executive of the Mental Health Foundation, said, this study adds to an existing body of solid research that shows the strong links between what we eat and our mental health.
He added people’s diets were becoming increasingly unhealthy. The UK population is consuming less nutritious, fresh produce and more saturated fats and sugars. (315W)

2. What do we know about the participants?
A. They are of different ages from young to old.
B. They are from different walks of life.

A. It is difficult for most British people to have a Mediterranean diet.
B. The Mediterranean diet is the healthiest in the world.
C. Many studies have been done on the Mediterranean diet before.
D. The Mediterranean diet is not good for depression.

Will health-conscious(重视健康的)office workers soon be skipping trips to the gym for an extended shift at the desk? It could be a healthy alternative, as some companies have begun experimenting with treadmill desks(跑步机办公桌).
NPR’s(美国国家公共电台的)Patti Neighmond made a transition to the treadmill by first changing her sitting desk into a standing desk. After getting used to standing, she installed a simple treadmill, minus handrails, below the standing desk.
“I’m into my second week now and walking at a pretty slow, casual pace, about 1. 4 miles an hour, ” Neighmond writes. “When I first started, I thought I’d simply jump on the treadmill and be off walking all day while working. But it turns out it’s really hard to walk, talk, think and concentrate. ”
Last year, The New York Times reported on Salo, a Minnesota-based financial consulting company that tried a similar experiment with some of its employees. And so far, the results have been positive both for employee’s health and for the company’s financial bottom line: During the six months that Salo took part in a Mayo Clinic treadmill desk study, the firm experienced record earnings.
“Remarkable, ” Salo, director of operations Craig Dexheimer told NPR. “We didn’t even go to a gym. We just went to work!” Dexheimer says he has lost 25 pounds since switching to the treadmill desk.
You can buy a treadmill desk, which typically costs several hundred dollars. Or, if you’re in do-it-yourself mode, this website shows how to build your own treadmill desk for just $39, not including the cost of the treadmill.
Still, the doctor who led the Mayo Clinic study says you shouldn’t jump right into running a minimarathon each day at work.
“There’s a tendency to want to jump on the treadmill and walk for hours and hours a day, ”Dr. James Levine told NPR. “Don’t do that. Certainly, at the absolute maximum, do half-hour on, half an hour off, for two to three hours a day. ”(349W)
5. What can be the best title for the text?
A. How to keep healthy?
B. How to make treadmill desks?
C. Treadmill desks might be the next office health trend
D. Treadmill desks and health-conscious workers
6. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. Patti had thought it was easy to work with treadmill desks.
B. Salo earned profits from treadmill desks.
C. Craig Dexheimer led the Mayo Clinic study.
D. It’s not expensive to build a treadmill desk in a DIY way.
7. What was Craig Dexheimer’ s attitude towards treadmill desks?
A. Positive.
B. Negative.
C. Cold.
D. Casual.
8. In what column of the newspaper can you find the passage?
A. Education.
B. Society.
C. Tourism.
D. Health.
