Carried out by researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences and the University Hospital of Leipzig, both in Germany, the new study looked at 8,943 participants and assessed their personality traits and any symptoms of depression via questionnaires.
The participants were also asked to complete questionnaires on their diet, reporting on how often they had eaten certain animal products in the last 12 months, ranging from “several times a day” to “never”.
