Omega-3 Fatty Acids Process Anti-Mental Illness in Patients with Omega-3 Fatty Acid Deficiency

By Kyle J. Norton

Neurological disorders are a group of diseases associated with the neurons in the brain and spinal cord of the central nervous system.

The WHO in the evaluation of neurological disorders wrote, "Neurological disorders contribute to 92 million disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) in 2005 projected to increase to 103 million in 2030 (approximately a 12% increase). While Alzheimer's and other dementias are projected to show a 66% increase from 2005 to 2030".

Where one DALY represents the loss of the equivalent of one year of full health.

Believe it or not, there are more than 600 diseases of the central nervous system, including brain tumors, epilepsy, dementia such as Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease, and stroke.

Mental illness is also known as mental health disorders associated with a wide range of mental health disorders, affecting all aspects of your psychological health, including mood, thinking, and behavior.

The most common mental illness in the Western world is depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, eating disorders, and addictive behaviors.

There are many causes associated with the onset of mental illness, including severe psychological trauma suffered as a child, such as emotional, physical, or sexual abuse, an important early loss, such as the loss of a parent, neglect, and poor ability to relate to others.

Medical conditions such as diabetes, a  history of mental illness in a blood relative, such as a parent or sibling, and stressful life situations are some of the prevalent factors that are involved in the onset of the diseases.

Omega-3 fatty acids are phytochemicals in the class of lipids, found abundantly in deepsea fisk, dark-green leafy vegetables, grains, legumes, nuts, etc.

The three main components of Omega-3 fatty acids are alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).

On finding a potential phytochemical for the treatment of psychological illnesses, researchers examined the effects of omega-3 fatty acids on the prevention and treatment of mental illness.

According to the search of the studies from 1966 to December 2010 by comparing changes in symptoms, functioning, other outcomes, and/or side effects in patients treated with omega-3 fatty acids for mental illness, intake of omega-3 fatty acids showed strong activity against mental illness in patients diagnosed with an omega-3 fatty acid deficiency.

Furthermore, the application of omega 3 fatty acids also have a strong implication against specific psychiatric disorder.

Taken altogether, Omega-3 fatty acids may be considered a functional food for the prevention and treatment of mental illness caused by omega-3 fatty acid deficiency, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Intake of Omega-3 fatty acids in the form of supplements should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.
