Scientists say it may be possible to develop a taste test to diagnose depression, and determine the best drugs to treat it.
They found taste perception is altered by two brain chemicals, serotonin and noradrenaline, imbalances of which are also implicated in depression.
But they affect taste in different ways, so a taste test could potentially show which was causing illness.
The University of Bristol study appears in the Journal of Neuroscience.
However, an independent expert has cast doubt on the usefulness of the findings.
The findings also suggest somebody who is anxious or stressed will have a less sensitive sense of taste - which may explain why people with depression have a diminished appetite.

hi miss nikui. now 10:40 niht
that story is very intersting.Depression (psychology), mental illness in which a person experiences deep, unshakable sadness and diminished interest in nearly all activities. People also use the term depression to describe the temporary sadness, loneliness, or blues that everyone feels from time to time. In contrast to normal sadness, severe depression, also called major depression, can dramatically impair a person’s ability to function in social situations and at work

It is very nice to see how the scientists works and try in order help people an dremove their illness!
But there is another point of veiw , we should to do some research and investigation to find out why peole become depress and where the depression comes from ? sometime we are so much lost in our investigation which make us to forget the pranciple questions!!!!
problems are causing a depression . i think who are have depressin have not diminished appetites it is nice to me
I think everybody has stress and anxious they can less eat and they use less of taste perception and they account a dejected.
sinticetes say to us deppression is kind of illness wich effect on the body of people and diminshed appetite is kind of ways for diagnose this illness
We think it is so good that scientist can develop their abilities and use them in the best way. We hope that Iranian scientist can do some thing like this, diagnosing of depression is so good, because there are so many persons who suffer from this disease. And we believe that Iranian scientist can succeed in discovering some illness and the way that we can cure them.
hellooooooo
depression is natural for a short time.
but if it is going to be long we shoud go to a hospital for mental disease(farzanegan school)!!!!!!
