We show that the assumption of dropping meson masses together with conventional many-body effects, implemented in the relativistic Dirac-Brueckner formalism, explains nuclear saturation. We use a microscopic model for correlated $2\pi$ exchange and include the standard many-body effects on the in-medium pion propagation, which initially increase the attractive nucleon-nucleon ($NN$) potential with density. For the vector meson exchanges in both the $\pi\pi$ and $NN$ sector, we assume Brown-Rho scaling which---in concert with `chiral' $\pi\pi$ contact interactions---reduces the attraction at higher densities.
