The study was conducted by Dr G Paul Amminger from the Medical University of Vienna in Austria, and the Orygen Youth Health Research Centre in Melbourne, Australia, and colleagues, and is reported in the February issue of the JAMA/Archives journal Archives of General Psychiatry.
As Amminger and colleagues mentioned in their background information, although there is a lot of controversy surrounding the use of current antipsychotic medication to try and prevent psychotic disorders, there is evidence that early treatment in schizophrenia and other psychoses has been linked to better outcomes.
There was also some evidence that long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) could be be beneficial for schizophrenia and a range of other psychotic conditions, and noted that individuals with schizophrenia may have an underlying dysfunction in fatty acid metabolism.

It's one study that must be repeated with a larger N, but, still, it's hopeful. Yet, I wonder where we're going to get all this fish oil, if it turns out to be a good way to go for many health issues.
