Abstract: The number of people with mental disorders shows a great deal of increase day by day despite the increasing number of antipsychotic and antidepressant medication use. Nutritional problems and mental illnesses are two interconnected aspects of human health. People who are diagnosed with mental disorders frequently have particular dietary needs and problems that can have a big influence on their general health status. Poor nutrition in this population can be caused by a variety of factors, including stress-related eating habits, dietary restrictions, altered appetite, and side effects from medications.
