Abstract
This study will assess the feasibility and acceptability of a combination intervention including dietary counselling and omega-3 fatty acid supplementation among women with generalized anxiety disorder. It will be randomized and wait-list controlled with 25 participants completing the 12-week intervention immediately and the other 25 participants completing the intervention after a 12-week wait period.
Conditions: Generalized Anxiety Disorder.
Primary outcome: Feasibility of Participant Recruitment and Intervention Delivery; Acceptability of the Intervention by Study Participants.
Enrollment: 50 participants.
