Objective: Mental health refers to overall psychological well-being that enables individuals to function smoothly and contribute as members of society. Recently, the incidence of mental disorders that affect this well-being has surged, and studies have reported that such conditions can significantly impact quality of life. Various treatment approaches—such as psychological counseling, occupational therapy, and pharmacological treatment—are currently being applied. However, pharmacological treatments often face criticism due to unclear mechanisms of action or emerging concerns about side effects. As a result, the modern trend is shifting toward personalized psychiatry, which applies diverse treatment methods tailored to each patient's specific symptoms. Case Report: This case study focuses on a woman in her 80s who has been experiencing symptoms of mental disorders, including long-standing depression, anxiety, and insomnia. She also exhibited aggressive verbal and behavioral patterns to the extent that communication was difficult. To address these symptoms, Ortho-Cellular Nutrition Therapy (OCNT) was applied, utilizing nutrients such as anthocyanins, vitamins B, C, and E, zinc, and magnesium, as well as natural extracts including hemp seed oil, bamboo leaf, St. John's wort, passionflower, ginkgo leaf, and fennel. As a result, there was a significant alleviation of the patient's symptoms related to depression, anxiety, and insomnia, along with a noticeable improvement in her ability to communicate. Conclusion: This case study demonstrates that OCNT, which considers the patient's circumstances, can significantly improve symptoms related to mental disorders such as depression, anxiety, and insomnia, as well as enhance cognitive function. Although this study's limitation lies in its focus on a single case, the observed improvement in symptoms and the resulting enhancement in the patient's quality of life are considered meaningful.
