Supplements for childhood depression relief

Research indicates that long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids from fish (EPA and DHA) show much promise in the treatment of depression and related disorders in adults. Data from a pilot study was published suggesting that children with childhood depression may also greatly benefit by omega-3 therapy. Twenty of 28 children completed the trial (half receiving placebo and half receiving 600 mg of EPA & DHA (2:1 ratio) per day). Seven of 10 children receiving the omega-3 supplement had a greater than 50% reduction in the Children’s Depression Rating Scale (4 out of 10 reached remission criteria); while none of those on placebo reached either end point. While this study was very small and additional studies are needed, the numerous other benefits provided by omega-3 fatty acids from fish make this a safe and promising approach for children with childhood depression.
