Reduced Anxiety in Forensic Inpatients

Johns D

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of Atlantic salmon consumption on underlying biological mechanisms associated with anxiety such as heart rate variability (HRV) and heart rate (HR) as well as a measure of self-reported anxiety. Moreover, these biological and self-reported outcome measures were investigated in relation to specific nutrients; vitamin D status, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). The Fish group showed significant improvements in both rMSSD and HR. The Fish group also showed significant decreases in stateanxiety.
