Taking a daily fish oil capsule can stave off mental illness in those at highest risk, trial findings suggest.
A three-month course of the supplement appeared to be as effective as drugs, cutting the rate of psychotic illness like schizophrenia by a quarter.

People usually take fish oil caps for heart/artery health-- and they appear to be extremely effective. In addition, they are anti-inflammatory-- good for arthritis and other inflammatory conditions. They appear to have other mental benefits as well.
The active ingredient are the Omega 3 fatty acids-- EPA and DHA. (You can also get Omega 3's from Flax and Walnuts, but while that may be beneficial for heart disease, it does not have all the benefits of the fish oil sources).
