Fluid intake

Home/Depression/Depression & Anxiety Nutritional Management Introduction/Fluid intake

In depression (or anxiety), fluid intake should be enhanced in order to reduce the side-effects of antidepressant drugs. Dry mouth and constipation are two common side-effects of antidepressant drugs, which can be reduced by increasing fluid intake. The recommended daily fluid intake is 1.5–2 liters/day. For constipation, one may also increase (gradually) dietary fiber intake
