In the American diet that usually means any amount of hydrogenated oils found in most processed foods. These oils hog the space where the good oils are supposed to do their job.
Second to that, the balance between omega 3 and omega 6, or the deficiency of either/both. Oils play a large role in neuronal plasticity, the nervous system's ability to adjust and respond, and the elasticity of cells and receptors. Based on my own experiences and others here, it seems apparent they also can directly affect dopamine and/or serotonin and/or norepinephrine.
