  "account": "Dr. Yelena Koltygina has suggested a mix of seven ingredients to help combat autumn depression. These ingredients include dried apricots, prunes, walnuts, dates, figs, honey, and lemon. To prepare the blend, Dr. Koltygina recommends washing these items with boiling water, then mixing them together and storing the mixture in a sealed container in the refrigerator.\n\nThe doctor suggested consuming the blend as a snack and adding a banana, a piece of cheese, or some high-quality chocolate. Dr. Koltygina explained that these foods can help stimulate the production of serotonin, a neurotransmitter that impacts mood. However, she cautioned against overeating and advised against consuming excessive fatty foods during the winter months.",
