Fish Oil and Depression - The Supplements Helped Her
February 21, 2010 on 2:34 pm | By admin | In HealthSo my mother has been going through a tough time in the past several months. It all started when she lost her job. The company laid her off along with several hundred other employees. On top of losing her employment, my brother fell on hard times, too, and mom has been forced to reach out to try to help him.All of this led to her depression. She slept a lot, didn’t want to go anywhere, and sounded listless whenever I spoke to her. She visited her physician, but she wanted my mom to go on prescription drugs, and my mom is leery of medication. I told her about omega 3 fish oil supplements. Specifically, about fish oil and depression. Omega 3 intake has been shown to elevate mood and reduce the symptoms of depression. I bought some fish oil for her. Two months later, she’s feeling much better.
