I don't like to get into the topic of diet and supplementation because I think it doesn't help much (provided your are healthy) compared to those other systems. However, I do recommend you supplement with fish oil because of the countless studies showing how it can help the brain in people who are deficient in DHA. In my opinion, fish oil really isn't a supplement--I'd rather look at it like most people are deficient in an essential nutrient.
