DOI: 10.3390/nu14132746
Abstract: Currently used antidepressants do not always provide the desired results, and many patients suffer from treatment-resistant depression. Clinical studies suggest that zinc deficiency (ZnD) may be an important risk factor for depression and might blunt… read more here.
