Quest Omega-Mood is a high-quality blend of carefully selected concentrated fish oils that provide a high ratio of the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA. Research shows that countries with a higher intake of fish, and therefore, a greater intake of omega-3 fatty acids, have a lower incidence of depression. Consequently, adding a source of omega-3 fatty acids to the diet may help to ease symptoms of depression and other mood disorders such as schizophrenia, seasonal affective disorder (SAD), postpartum depression, and bipolar disorder or manic depression.
