May promote brain health
Omega-3 fatty acids are clearly necessary for children's brain development. The early results of the study now indicate they could also improve brain health even later in life. One of the omega-3 fats included in salmon oil, DHA, has been linked in test-tube research to the formation and repair of brain cells.
Additionally, enough DHA intake is linked to a lower risk of Alzheimer's disease development and age-related cognitive decline. Additionally, some research on test tubes and animals indicates that consuming omega-3 supplements may aid in the prevention and treatment of Parkinson's disease. Ultimately, additional carefully planned human studies are required to learn more about the potential benefits of omega-3 fatty acids contained in salmon oil for maintaining brain function over the course of human life.
