Omega-3 shown to help depression and bipolar disorder

Omega-3 is an essential fatty acid found in fish and certain plant based foods such as flaxseed, pumpkin seeds, and walnuts. Omega-3 appears to be critical to the growth and maintenance of brain cells. It is strongly implicated in helping depression and bipolar disorder. A 1999 Harvard pilot study was conducted on 30 patients with bipolar disorder. The trial was supposed to go on for nine months, but was stopped after four months due to its outstanding results. Psychiatrist Andrew Stoll, MD, faculty member at Harvard Medical School, wrote The Omega-3 Connection, a book in which he documented how daily intake reduces depression and improves heart function. He set up www.omegabrite.com to distribute high quality Omega-3 supplements. I’m pleased to report that several of my clients have had excellent results from taking Omegabrite as predicted by Dr. Stoll. However, Omega-3 supplements should not be taken without first consulting your doctor or psychiatrist.
