Abstract in brief

This article reviews evidence suggesting that a lack of omega3 fatty acids in the diet may contribute to mood disorders like depression, and that supplementing with omega3s could be a helpful treatment.
Several studies show a link between low omega3 levels and depression, as well as benefits from omega3 supplements in improving mood, which may also relate to the common link between depression and heart disease.
The authors highlight the need for further research to determine the most effective types and doses of omega3s, such as EPA or DHA, especially for different mood disorder treatments.]
