I recommend the book The Schizophrenias - Ours to conquer by Carl C. Pfeiffer. It divides schizophrenia into several phenotypes that have metabolic causations.
I used to have manic episodes for my whole life, but managed without medication. After I fixed my histamine oversupply in the body around march(by cutting folic acid and histamine-rich foods from my diet and taking L-methylfolate supplements), I haven't had another episode.
I used to have allergies and crazy food cravings for sugar and other unhealthy stuff because of the histamine issues which are gone now. This phenotype is called histadelia.
Then there is histapenia, where you have too much copper accumulated in your body and it can’t get rid of them unless you take higher doses of zinc and mangan(and a chelator to avoid complications). Folate and histamine levels are too low.
Overall B-Vitamins are pretty important. If you need them its way higher doses than RDA(b3, b6, b2)
Thyroid problems can be involved in schizophrenia, aswell as gluten intolerance.
