No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study is being done to test the feasibility of a personalized nutrition eating plan in adolescents with depression. Evidence suggests that dietary quality may affect an individual's mood. A healthy diet includes vegetables, fruit, nuts, seeds, and olive oil, as well as minimally processed whole grains, legumes, and moderate amounts of lean meat, fish, and dairy.

The investigators will examine the feasibility of a personalized nutrition eating plan for children and youth with depression. Previous research has shown that it helps improve depressive symptoms in adults, but it is not clear if the same is true for children and youth.
