Volume 2 offers in-depth knowledge about depression and its
alleviation through dietary interventions as described briefly in
Volume 1. This volume is intended for the benefit of the general
public and the entire medical community interested in the effective
clinical management of depression of diversified origin and to
improve the therapeutic success through dietary interventions and
other recently developed novel and disease-specific biomarkers for
personalised treatment. This book is devoted particularly to
provide recent knowledge about important healthy diets and their
therapeutic potential in depression. In addition, it covers various
clinically-significant aspects of disease-specific depression and
its alleviation with specific dietary interventions. This volume
highlights emerging knowledge about major depressive disorders
(MDDs) with limited treatment success at the moment. Volume 2
consists of three parts. Part I describes various types of diets
and depression; Part II describes disease-specific depression and
its alleviation with specific dietary interventions; Part 3
describes recently discovered novel biomarkers and their clinical
significance in diagnosis and personalised treatment of depression.
This volume is written with a primary objective to highlight the
clinical significance of specific dietary interventions early in
the course of treatment and provide neuroprotection by inhibiting
hippocampal and hypothalamic Charnoly body (CB formation) primarily
involved in the etiopathogenesis of depression. CB is a universal
preapoptotic biomarker of cell injury which is formed as a
consequence of free radical overproduction during nutritional
and/or environmental toxic insult in most vulnerable (stem) cells.
CB formation is involved in progressive neurodegeneration and
depression as a consequence of compromised mitochondrial
bioenergetics. A detailed description of CB formation, its
prevention and/or inhibition by antioxidants and/or pharmacological
agents is provided in this volume for the effective treatment of
MDDs. In addition, this book provides recent knowledge regarding
emerging novel biomarkers and their clinical significance in the
differential diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of depression.
There are numerous anti-inflammatory, antiapoptotic,
growth-promoting antioxidants in our diet including flavonoids and
polyphenols which can enter CNS without any allergic reaction about
which limited knowledge is as yet available. This volume provides
further insight along these directions and emphasises the
significance of tryptophan rich diet, omega-3 fatty acids,
B-Vitamins, Vitamin D3, minerals, and antioxidants for healthy
living at any age.
