Low omega-3 linked to schizophrenia risk - UPI.com: "Deficiencies in omega-3 fatty acids may be a factor in mental illnesses, U.S. researchers suggest.
The study, published in Behavioral Neuroscience, named two omega-3 fatty acids -- docosahexaenoic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid -- as key to maintaining a nervous system capable of avoiding sensory overload.
The researchers suggest low omega-3 may be linked to the information-processing problems found in people with afflictions of the nervous system including schizophrenia and bipolar, obsessive-compulsive, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorders."
