Postpartum depression used to be taboo. It was never talked about unless a mother did something terrible enough to make it into the headlines. Nowadays we realize that it is nothing to be ashamed of. In fact, it is fairly common.<\/p>\n<p>The CDC estimates that 11-20% of women will suffer some degree of depression after childbirth. A similar percentage of women will experience prenatal depression (depression during pregnancy). To put these numbers into perspective, 20% of women can expect to suffer depression during their lifetime.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, that doesn\u2019t make prenatal or postnatal (postpartum) depression any easier to understand for any woman who has suffered from it. How could such a joyous time in their lives lead to depression?<\/p>\n<p>The causes of prenatal and postnatal depression are multifactorial. Some, such as genetic predisposition and hormonal imbalances, may be beyond a woman\u2019s control. Others may require medical intervention.<\/p>\n<p>However, many women ask: \u201cIs there something natural, some change in diet and lifestyle, I could undertake that might help with the depression?\u201d This week we will look at a study suggesting that <strong>omega-3s might help with prenatal and postnatal depression<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center; color: #339966;\">Can Omega-3s Help With Prevent Postpartum Depression?<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.chaneyhealth.com\/healthtips\/can-omega3-prevent-postpartum-depression\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-2365\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chaneyhealth.com\/healthtips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/can-omega3-prevent-postpartum-depression-300x234.jpg\" alt=\"can omega3 prevent postpartum depression\" width=\"300\" height=\"234\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chaneyhealth.com\/healthtips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/can-omega3-prevent-postpartum-depression-300x234.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.chaneyhealth.com\/healthtips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/can-omega3-prevent-postpartum-depression.jpg 392w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>There are several reasons for suspecting that omega-3s might help with both prenatal and postnatal (postpartum) depression.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Many studies have suggested that omega-3 deficiency is implicated in depression.<\/li>\n<li>A recent study <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chaneyhealth.com\/healthtips\/dha-during-pregnancy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DHA During Pregnancy<\/a>\u00a0 reported that pregnant women in the US are only getting around 1\/5 the recommended amount of omega-3s from their diet.<\/li>\n<li>During the second and third trimester, the fetus requires tremendous amounts of omega-3s, particularly DHA, to support its developing brain.

It suggests, but does not prove, that omega-3 deficiency predisposes to pre\/postnatal depression.\u00a0 So, <strong>taking the recommended amounts of omega-3s may help prevent postpartum depression<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>If this were the only reason to suggest adding extra omega-3s to your diet during pregnancy and lactation, it might not be sufficient to spur you to action. However, recent studies suggest that increasing your omega-3 intake during pregnancy and breastfeeding is also important for your child\u2019s brain development. Thus, there are at least two important reasons to make sure your omega-3 intake is optimal during pregnancy and breastfeeding.<\/p>\n<p>It is important to recognize that increasing your omega-3 intake may not be sufficient to cure pre- and postnatal depression by itself. It is probably best as part of a holistic approach. You should also:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Make sure you are getting adequate B vitamins (especially <strong>folic acid, B6 and B12<\/strong>). Clinical studies have also linked deficiencies of these nutrients with depression.<\/li>\n<li>Make sure your protein intake is sufficient and limit sugars and simple carbohydrates. This helps stabilize blood sugar swings that can affect your mood.<\/li>\n<li>Keep caffeine to a minimum and avoid alcohol.<\/li>\n<li>Employ stress reduction techniques such as yoga, meditation, or conversations with friends.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Of course, there is nothing radical about any of these recommendations. These are the same recommendations every pregnant mother is being given for the health of their baby. For example, the importance of folic acid has been recognized for decades. The importance of omega-3s for your child\u2019s brain development has received increasing recognition in recent years.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, if natural approaches don\u2019t work, consult your physician.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center; color: #3366ff;\">The Bottom Line<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A recent meta-analysis has shown an association between omega-3 deficiency and both prenatal and postnatal depression.<\/li>\n<li>That is significant in light of a recent study showing that pregnant women in the US are getting only 1\/5 the recommended amount of omega-3s from their diet.<\/li>\n<li>This study showed an association between omega-3 deficiency and depression during the prenatal and postnatal periods.
