This video aims to give some context for understanding what causes depression and why. It may be surprising to know that inflammation has a huge impact on your mood and health.

If this interests you, I highly recommend checking out Rhonda Patrick's interview with Dr. Charles Raison: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DtJGJWjDys

A lot of information for this video came from Charles Raison and Vladimir Maletic's book "The New Mind-Body Science of Depression" - https://www.amazon.com/New-Mind-Body-...
