Mark may be acquiring lesser concentrations of vitamins and nutrients, that is, omega-6s and omega-3s. This would directly influence the brain and the usual functions of the body as the body requires adequate nutrients and vitamins to survive. This could also influence the chemical balance in his brain, leading to schizophrenia/depression/or other issues like eating disorders.
