Research shows that children who grow up in urban areas have a higher risk of childhood psychotic symptoms. Another research also shows that children who eat foods with fatty acids also have a higher chance of psychosis. The research shows that what we do or do not eat might have implications for some with regards to transition to psychosis.

I thought that the article was interesting because it points to something so basic as food, something many may not think can be a contributor to psychological distress, as something linked to psychosis.

The research shows that one of the things that brings together all the factors that lead to psychosis are linked to what we eat. However, exposures such as noise, light, and air pollution, as well as exposure to viral infections can also lead to psychosis. We however need to be careful not to have blanket generalizations.

Key Takeaways:

1
Living in a city is associated with childhood psychosis.
2
Eating lots of poly unsaturated fats may cause high risk people to develop psychosis.
3
The ability of finding healthy food may also be lower in some cities, so these urban psychosis and nutritional psychosis may be related.
