Vitamin-B useful to improve Schizophrenia symptoms
November 19, 2017

A new research suggests that Vitamin-B is much useful to improve Schizophrenia symptoms.

The researchers, led by Joseph Firth from the Division of Psychology and Mental Health of Manchester University, UK told that

schizophrenia does not yet have a cure, the standard treatment options available focus on eliminating the symptoms.

They suggested that B vitamins can reduce symptoms of Schizophrenia which affects one percent of population worldwide. Most of those affected are men.

Available treatment options focus on eliminating the symptoms rather than the disease, as what causes the condition remains unknown.

The research indicates that taken in high doses, B vitamins - such as B-6, B-8, and B-12 - can significantly reduce schizophrenia symptoms.

Furthermore, the analysis showed that vitamin B supplements are most effective when taken early on in the development of the disease.
