Supplements & Nutrients for Mental Health
Important Safety Information
Always consult your healthcare provider before starting any supplement. Supplements can interact with medications, cause side effects, and may not be appropriate for everyone. This information is educational only and not medical advice.
Supplements can play a supportive role in mental health treatment, but they should complement—not replace—a healthy diet, therapy, and prescribed medications. While some supplements have strong research support, the industry is largely unregulated, making quality and safety critical considerations.
Work with your healthcare provider to determine which supplements, if any, are appropriate for your individual needs, medications, and health conditions.
The Bottom Line
Supplements can be valuable tools in mental health treatment, but they work best as part of a comprehensive approach that includes therapy, lifestyle changes, and—when appropriate—medication. Always prioritize quality, work with your healthcare provider, and remember that no supplement can replace professional treatment for mental health conditions.
