Background: Dietary factors might modify cognitive decline that results from aging. Fatty
acids, which are limiting factors in brain development, are prime candidates. Objective: We …

Background: Evidence for an inverse relation between dietary intake of n–3 polyunsaturated
fatty acids (PUFAs) and age-related cognitive decline is inconsistent. This inconsistency may …

Background: Plasma fatty acids may affect the risk of cognitive decline in older adults.
Objectives: We prospectively studied the association between plasma fatty acids and …

Background Food supplement use is widely promoted, but little is known about the cognitive
effects of food supplements. Objective We examined the effects of food supplement use on …

The important role that neural tissue fatty acid composition plays in neurodevelopment and
various pathological states is increasingly recognized. However, there are limited data …

Previous data have linked omega-3 fatty acids with risk of dementia. We aimed to assess the
longitudinal relationships of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid intake as well as blood …

Background: Erythrocyte fatty acids may be superior to plasma fatty acids for reflecting long-
term fatty acid intake because of less sensitivity to recent intake and a slower turnover rate …

Dietary intake of fatty acids may be related to dementia and cognitive function through a
number of plausible mechanisms, such as atherosclerosis and thrombosis, inflammation, via …

There is a recent increase in the level of interest in the possible role of dietary fatty acids in
age-related cognitive decline, and cognitive impairment of both degenerative (Alzheimer's …

Plasma fatty acids have been reported to be dysregulated in mild cognitive impairment (MCI)
and Alzheimer's disease (AD), though outcomes are not always consistent, and subject …
