Depression and diabetes

·1 min

In a study from Northwestern University reported that depression may cause diabetes in some elderly patients. If you have many of the symptoms of depression they you are 60% more likely to develop type 2 diabetes than people who are not considered depressed. This is even after lifestyle effects are take into account.

It’s another example of research backing up one of the principles of EFT, the idea that mental difficulties can end up being expressed in the body as physical issues.

Yet another reason to find ways to be happy.
