I think it's interesting.

It might not be the reason that we all think that if you're cooking at home, you're probably eating less ultra-processed foods, less salt, more veggies potentially.

But they've also said that it might be that actually the physical activity of going to the supermarket to do the shop, the social interaction, it might all play into it.

So it might not just be the food part of it alone, Norman, and the cognitive skills when you're cooking, when you're dicing the onion.

Well, time is a big problem.

And I think the takeaway here is if you can cook a meal at home, and it doesn't have to be fancy.

I just read this study and thought, oh, that spaghetti bolognese I'm planning to cook on the weekend.

It's going to do my brain even more good than what I previously thought and potentially reduce my risk of depression.

But it's not easy.

I think we should admit that.

And it doesn't have to be fancy to yield benefit.

I always say that to patients.

We are.

So we've previously discussed... Not a week goes by.

There's a lot of emerging research in the space, though.

I think this tells you how quickly things are moving.

We've previously discussed that there's the potential anti-addictive properties of these medications and that there's certainly been anecdotes.

And I've had patients say to me, Priya,

They're on the medication for polycystic ovarian syndrome or weight management or type 2 diabetes.

And yes, the food noise goes down.
