Intermittent fasting isn’t just about weight loss—turns out, it could actually help with depression by lighting up the brain’s dopamine system! In a new study, mice on an intermittent fasting schedule showed fewer depression-like symptoms and were more into things they usually enjoy (like sweet treats). The catch? It all hinges on dopamine D1 receptors in the brain. It’s early days (the research is in mice), but this could mean big things for mental health and nutrition! #IntermittentFasting #MentalHealth #Dopamine #Health
