Increased Dietary Inflammatory Index Is Associated with Schizophrenia: Results of a Case-Control Study from Bahrain
Indulgence in pro-inflammatory foods may make an individual vulnerable to having schizophrenia.
This study clarified the correlation between generous consumption of pro-inflammatory foods and the development of schizophrenia. The study population comprises of 120 patients with schizophrenia and 120 individuals without the disease.
Researchers found out that most of the patients with schizophrenia were on diets rich in pro-inflammatory foods. This study documented an unfavorable relationship between frequent ingestion of pro-inflammatory foods and increased risk of schizophrenia in men and women.
