ADDING fish oil to the diet is the most promising supplement-related
treatment for depression, a new review has found.
Sydney University dieticians have trawled recent research to judge the
benefits of a range of dietary supplements for relief from depressive
symptoms.
The review, published today in the Australian journal Nutrition &
Dietetics, rated vitamins B6 and B12, folate, the chemical S-Adenosyl
Methionine (SAMe) and the essential amino acid tryptophan as showing
some promise in the field.
The herbal extract St John's Wort was also reviewed positively.
But researchers found omega-3 fatty acids, found naturally in oily fish
and some grains and nuts, to be the "most promising" nutrition-based
treatment for the condition.
"We have found evidence of the potential therapeutic benefits of
omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid incorporation in the diet which may
contribute to an eventual recovery in the long term," said lead author
and dietician Dr Dianne Volker.
"This is definitely a valuable add-on to the psychosocial and
pharmacological treatment therapy depression-sufferers undergo."
The polyunsaturated fatty acids have been found to have cardiovascular
benefits and a role in brain development and mental health.
The review found that three meals a week of oily fish like salmon,
sardines, mackerel or fresh tuna, or the equivalent in fish oil
supplements, was optimum.
The National Heart Foundation recommends two fish meals a week.
Depression is the leading non-fatal disability in Australia, with one
in five people developing it at some point in their lives.
The World Health Organisation believes depression will become the
second leading cause of morbidity worldwide by 2020.

If you have problems with a "fishy taste" try freezing the capsules.
In that way they get farther down into your digestive system and
shouldn't cause that problem.
Good luck!

I've been eating them for a few weeks... don't know if I've noticed any
difference in my symptoms... but then I started taking them to try and
counteract the damage I've been doing to my liver, not for depression.
I'll let you know if I suddenly start to feel happy.

You can take the enteric coated fish oil supplements and not have to
worry about burping.My St. Pete Times had a story about fish oil
supplements today, unfortunately I couldn't find it online.
"A study in the November issue of Neurology found that people with the
highest blood levels of an omega-3 fatty acid, called docosahexaenoic
acid or DHA, were about half as likely to develop dementia as those
with lower levels." The story goes on to say that the researchers
looked for a reduced risk associated with seven other omega -3 fatty
acids but only DHA had any effect. The study used data from the
Framingham Heart Study to follow 899 initially healthy participants,
with a median age of 76, for an average of nine years.
Sure looks worth trying....

Good. I heard 'Imus'(a radio DJ) use that expression once. I love
stealing a good line, filing it away, and using it later. Makes me
