Why are some imported React-Native Redux actions changing values and triggering onEffects multiple times?

Here is my setup:

// store/actions/user.js

export const discoverFollowingStatus = followsId => {
  return (dispatch, getState) => {
    const userId = getState().user.user.id;
    findFollowingFromTo(userId, followsId).then(following => {
      dispatch({
        type: UPDATE_FOLLOWING_STATUS,
        payload: {
          followsId,
          following: following !== null,
        },
      });
    });
  };
};

// component.js

import {
  discoverFollowingStatus,
} from '../store/actions/user';
...
useEffect(() => {
    discoverFollowingStatus(followedUserId);
    console.log(discoverFollowingStatus);
  }, [followedUserId, discoverFollowingStatus]);

The console is printing lots of functions that aren't grouping together:

The big problem is that the screen is constantly re-rendering because the useEffect is triggering. Why would that imported constant change and trigger it?
