| description | Objective: The adherence to a Mediterranean Dietary Pattern ensures an adequate
intake of B vitamins and w-3 fatty acids. A protective role on depression has been
suggested for both nutrients.
Design: Cross-sectional analysis from the SUN (Seguimiento Universidad de Navarra)
prospective cohort study. Data from 9670 participants (4211 men and 5459 women)
were analised. Logistic regression analyses were fitted to assess the association
between B-vitamins and w-3 fatty acids intake (quintiles) and the prevalence of
depression.
Results: Folate intake was inversely associated with depression prevalence among
men, especially smokers. Among women, B12 vitamin intake was inversely associated
with depression, especially among smokers and physically active women. No significant associations were observed for w-3 fatty acids intake.
Conclusions: The adherence to a Mediterranean Dietary Pattern ensures an adequate intake of fruits, nuts, vegetables, cereals, legumes or fish, important sources of nutrients linked to depression prevention. |
