Mood Disorders Can Be Improved With Vitamins, Minerals

July 16, 2013: 12:00 AM EST
A Canadian researcher who studied 97 adults diagnosed with mood disorders found that those who took more vitamins and minerals over three days showed significantly improved mental functioning. Bonnie Kaplan said vitamin and mineral supplements could be an alternative to increasing psychiatric medicines for relief of symptoms of anxiety and depression. Another researcher noted that 5-Hydroxytryptophan (5 HTP), vitamins B and D, as well as ginkgo biloba and omega 3 supplements have been known to enhance mood.
