In our lives, there is a mental illness that everyone is more familiar with, which is depression. In a depressed patient, this disease can cause him serious mental health problems. Therefore, when you find depression, you must go to the hospital for treatment in time.
Why is depression prone to suicide?
In fact, many patients with depression will confine themselves in their own world. Closing themselves is his most instinctive behavior to resist external harm. People with depression believe that being closed can relieve pain, but it actually poses new psychological problems. Suicide is also a way of defense for them, or it can be said that suicide is the ultimate weapon for their defense. This defense is the most effective, fastest, and most thorough, but also the most heartbreaking.
What is the best way for patients with depression?
1. Fish is the first choice
Eating fish can improve the patient's mental state. The principle is that fish contain omega-3 fatty acids, which can produce antidepressant effects and slow down patients' stress and tension. A survey in the United States showed that when patients eat fish, the fish only takes a little longer than taking the medication compared to normal antidepressants. At the same time, eating fish can also affect the concentration of omega-3 fatty acids in women's milk, thus reducing the incidence of depression.
By comparing different countries, some experts found that the incidence of depression in countries with a lot of fish is lower, and the rate of suicide due to depression is also lower. In countries where there is less fish, the incidence of depression is also high. Therefore, it can be concluded that eating fish is closely related to the incidence of depression.
2. Foods rich in trace elements selenium, zinc, and copper
We all know that children need zinc supplementation, so do you know that zinc can prevent depression? Zinc mainly exists in the form of metalloenzymes in the human body, and the rest are proteins, so zinc deficiency will affect the energy metabolism of brain cells. Foods with the highest zinc content are oysters and animal livers, and dairy products are also available. If copper is lacking, brain cells will become disordered and the endocrine system will be excited. Among them, squid, shrimp and mutton are rich in copper.
Foods containing selenium can also treat depression. Experts found that after eating selenium-rich foods, patients will feel good and have clearer thinking. Selenium-rich foods include these: chicken, seafood, dried fruits, etc. There are also complex carbohydrates: soda biscuits, whole wheat bread, etc. It can also treat depression.
Depression can be relieved through food, but the most important thing is to build the patient's confidence in himself, his family and the world. This is the most effective way.
