Essential elements in depression and anxiety. Part II

This 2015 paper analyzes the micronutrients copper, selenium, manganese, iodine and vanadium and their roles in depression and anxiety. Młyniec et al. (2015) discuss potential mechanisms in which these elements may be linked with either depression or anxiety, including possible interactions between some of these micronutrients with enzymes that are involved in the pathophysiology of mental disorders. Furthermore, the authors inspect the dynamic between these elements and depression/anxiety, even the quantity of an element in the diet or in the blood associated with the symptoms of these disorders. [NPID: micronutrients, nutritional supplements, copper, selenium, manganese, iodine, vanadium, depression, anxiety]
