Global Antidepressant Usage and Korean Energy Drinks
New OECD data reveals that the United States leads the world in antidepressant usage, with 110 users per 1,000 people, followed closely by Iceland.

The hosts attribute Korea's low depression rates to the ubiquitous consumption of small energy drinks, such as those found at "Hankook" supermarkets, which they describe as tasting better than Western versions and containing different active ingredients.
