No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Observational studies and a limited numbers of RCTs have observed that habitual Mediterranean-style dietary pattern (MDP) consumption is associated with improved mental health and cognition. Yet, its efficacy in a short-term has not been studied in well-controlled intervention settings.

MediMood is a cross-over RCT aiming to test whether a MDP can affect mood and anxiety following a meal (postprandial) and over 5-days in adults over 18 years with mild to moderate mental health problems relative to a Western diet (WD).
