“Are you feeling mentally tired?”
Do you believe that eating a lot of fish can reduce irritability?
There is some scientific evidence that supports this idea.
In particular, the omega‑3 fatty acids found in fish (EPA and DHA) support brain and nervous system function, and several studies suggest the following:
✔️ May help stabilize mood
- EPA and DHA are thought to help regulate neurotransmitter function,
which has been linked to reduced irritability and emotional instability. - Some research also suggests they may help balance stress hormones.
✔️ Anti‑inflammatory effects
- Omega‑3s have anti‑inflammatory properties,
and inflammation is known to correlate with mental health symptoms.
✔️ Possible reduction of mild depressive symptoms
- Clinical trials indicate that EPA‑rich omega‑3s may help ease
mild to moderate depressive symptoms.
Of course, eating a lot of fish won’t immediately relieve irritability.
However, I believe that changing your diet can lead to a better lifestyle.
I hope this can be the first step toward that change.
Why not start by switching to a healthy meal just once a week?
