Research from several articles suggest that many individuals incarcerated suffer from mental illness. The question that I would like to get answered, or least have a better grasp of issue, is that how a person's diet factors into that a person's mental wellness (more specific, a inmates mental health). In the beginning phases of the research portion of the project, I wanted to relay on books somewhat. As I started looking for them, founding them, and reading through them, I knew that it was too much information to digest so I decided to use online references. One of first places google brought me to was a special report written about the U.S. Department of Justice. This was an obvious choice for legitimate information with credence. I firmly believe that no one will dispute the fact that your plays a major role in your mental health. However, I feel that certain individuals don't realize the importance of a healthy diet into a person's equation mental stability. They most likely feel that only medicines will have a major impact on an inmates psych. I strongly support changing how we approach mental health or wellness in general. My first issue is that many doctors who prescribe medicine for inmates don't really go in depth on their evaluations. They don't know well the medicine may or may not have worked on the patient, any adverse reactions that the patient may have been facing, or even if the patient even needs it anymore. The system is way too filled for that much intimacy. Though I have looked in several different libraries, I have decided that most, if not all of my sources will be from reliable internet sources. I have chosen to do this because it's easier to found exactly what I'm looking for. Most books on these issues are very in depth and founding the exact information that I am looking for, through hundreds of pages, is too tedious.
