The thesis I linked to in my previous post proved a causal link between high fat diet, invasive bowel bacteria and systemic inflammation. The following trials in mice provide strong causal link between high fat diets and depression. When taken together, this is further evidence of a causal relationship between inflammation and depression. That said, I'm sure you are right that people who already suffer from depression are more likely to suffer worse when experiencing systemic inflammation.
