Omega-3 Fats Feed the Human Brain

[Guest guest]

Colleagues, the following is FYI and does not necessarily reflect my own

opinion. I have no further knowledge of the topic.

------------------------

DENVER, Dec. 28 /PRNewswire/ -- Peer-reviewed research shows that

long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 LC-PUFAs) -- namely

docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) -- feed the human

brain and may improve psychiatric conditions as well as visual function.

This

research is described in the December 2004 PUFA Newsletter.
