Yoga and Omega-3 Supplements Match Psychotherapy Efficacy for Treating Antenatal Depression

Summary

A major systematic review indicates that yoga and omega-3 fatty acids are as effective as CBT and mindfulness for managing depression during pregnancy. This finding offers low-barrier, scalable alternatives for the nearly one-third of pregnant women globally who currently lack access to mental health support.

The finding updates the evidence base in Maternal & Newborn and Mental Health and is worth reading against prior studies on the same endpoint. Clinical-stage and evidence-dependent operators in the lane feel these prints first.
