Supplements for Schizophrenia
3 supplements with research evidence for Schizophrenia
What the Research Shows
Research into supplements for schizophrenia shows varying levels of scientific support. Currently, choline has the strongest level of evidence among those studied, with moderate evidence indicating that differences in choline-containing compounds and myo-inositol levels are associated with how patients respond to treatment. Specifically, these differences have been observed between patients who are treatment-resistant and those who respond well to treatment. Other substances, such as inositol and pregnenolone, currently have insufficient evidence. While studies have noted significant differences in myo-inositol levels between different groups of patients, more research is required to understand its role. Similarly, small-scale trials have looked into whether pregnenolone could target cognitive and negative symptoms, but the current findings are not yet conclusive.
