A systemic review of the roles of n-3 fatty acids in health and disease.
TL;DR: Additional controlled clinical trials are needed to document whether long-term consumption or supplementation with eicosapentaenoic acid/docosahexaenoic Acid or the plant-derived counterpart (alpha-linolenic acid) results in better quality of life.

Omega-3 fatty acids and mood disorders.

TL;DR: The authors argue for studies clarifying the efficacy of omega-3 supplementation for unipolar and bipolar depressive disorders, both as individual and augmentation treatment strategies, and for studies pursuing which omega- 3 fatty acid, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) or docosahexaenoic acids (DHA), is likely to provide the greatest benefit.

EPA but Not DHA Appears To Be Responsible for the Efficacy of Omega-3 Long Chain Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid Supplementation in Depression: Evidence from a Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
TL;DR: An updated meta-analysis of all double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized controlled trials examining the effect of ω3 LC-PUFA supplementation in which depressive symptoms were a reported outcome provides evidence that EPA may be more efficacious than DHA in treating depression.

TL;DR: There is evidence that a higher quality of a diet is associated with a lower risk for the onset of depressive symptoms, but not all available results are consistent with the hypothesis that diet influences depression risk.

Journal ArticleDOI
Fish consumption and major depression
TL;DR: The hypothesis that a high consumption of fish could be correlated with a lower annual prevalence of major depression was tested and the direction and power of the correlation between apparent fish consumption and major depression did not show that fish consumption can cause differences in the prevalence ofmajor depression or that eating fish or fish oils are useful in treatment.

Addition of omega-3 fatty acid to maintenance medication treatment for recurrent unipolar depressive disorder
TL;DR: It is not possible to distinguish whether E-EPA augments antidepressant action in the manner of lithium or has independent antidepressant properties of its own.

Malcolm Peet,David F. Horrobin +1 more
TL;DR: Treatment with ethyl-eicosapentaenoate at a dosage of 1 g/d was effective in treating depression in patients who remained depressed despite adequate standard therapy, with strong beneficial effects on items rating depression, anxiety, sleep, lassitude, libido, and suicidality.
