Multinutrient supplementation did not show preventive effects for depression compared with food‐related behavioral activation therapy or no therapy in a group of overweight adults with subsyndromal symptoms of depression, a randomized trial involving more than 1,000 participants has found. Hospitalization rates during the trial's one‐year follow‐up were virtually identical in the three study groups, the researchers reported. Study results were published March 5 in JAMA .
