Nutritional Support for Mental Health in TBI Patients

Many studies have talked about traumatic brain injury (TBI) and how it can affect the mental illness of the affected individual, but nutritional interventions are rarely discussed on how they can assist in alleviating the symptoms of the affected individual. Current reviews have discussed each aspect of dietary interventions such as vitamin E, green tea, curcumin and so on how to alleviate symptoms of mental health illness. For example, depression, anxiety disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and aggression. In this chapter, we will discuss the relationship between nutritional support for mental health in traumatic brain injury patients and address the gap in knowledge in regard to the aspect. We will also address the future aspects and the limitations of this aspect.
