DHA May Help Prevent Alzheimer

A new clinical trial shows that Alzheimer's patients who undertook DHA supplementation maintained their memory test scores after six months, while those who did not take DHA had deteriorated scores. (Tofiq, A., 2021)

Aligning with previous researches, DHA has been suggested to prevent Alzheimer's disease by the following mechanisms (Cole, G. M., 2010):

  • Prevents initiation of Alzheimer's disease by reducing β-amyloid peptide production

  • Suppresses neuroinflammation, which contributes to neuronal dysfunction and synaptic loss

  • Prevents the formation of neurofibrillary tangle

  • Prevents promotion of Alzheimer's disease by reducing (n-6) fatty acid arachidonate and its prostaglandin metabolites

  • Supports neuronal development and functions by increasing the levels of a neuroprotective brain-derived neurotrophic factors in brain

The European Food Safety Authority suggests consuming 250mg DHA per day to maintain normal brain, heart, and eye function.
