According to a review article by Lakhan and Vieira (2008), nutritional therapies have become somewhat of a forgotten method of treating mental disorders like depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. The article also points out that consumers are actually becoming more interested in natural and holistic therapies like nutrition for treating mental disorders. If consumer interest is less of a factor, what else might explain why nutritional therapies are being forgotten in mental health treatment?
A) Clinicians lack knowledge on the use of nutritional supplements in treating mental disorders
) Pharmaceutical companies were not interested in nutritional therapies because they could not patent or own them
C) Both are correct
D) None are correct
