Recent discoveries suggest they can even help with the troubling symptoms of schizophrenia. Usually strong medications have to be taken for these.

Key Takeaways:
- As schizophrenia does not yet have a cure, the standard treatment options available focus on eliminating the symptoms.
- The debilitating mental health condition includes severe symptoms such as hallucinations and delusions, but also cognitive dysfunction and agitated body movements.
- Available treatment options focus on eliminating the symptoms rather than the disease, as what causes the condition remains unknown.
“A new – and first of its kind – meta-analysis of current research suggests that in addition to these standard treatments, a high dose of B vitamins may be more helpful in reducing schizophrenia symptoms than conventional treatments on their own.”
