Default Can some mental problems be caused by malnutrition? - 01-08-2009, 06:43 PM

Does anyone know if some mental problems such as depression, anxiety and others can be caused by malnutrition, specifically not getting the recommended nutrients needed? Has anyone with mental problems tried to eat better and gotten positive results with their mental state?For myself, my diet is horrible. I don't eat enough and my diet mainly consists of fatty, fried foods, sugars and carbohydrates. Vegetables and fruits are not on my menu except for V8 V-Fusion juice.

I have been diagnosed with depression and bi-polar disorder.My psychiatrist recommended I eat healthier because the levels in your brain are more balanced when you're eating healthier, which will keep you happier. It's not necessary fruits and veggies, it's keeping fatty things out of your diet, and not splurging too much. You don't have to eat salad, but instead of getting fried chicken, try grilled, just stuff like that helps.good luck.

Mental illness impairs your ability to perform routine tasks, foster healthy relationships, or cope with anger or stress. It may be classified on the basis of extreme mood swings, irrational or destructive thought patterns, and behavioral problems.perennial flowers
