Study questions Omega-3 supplement effectiveness
A recent study has reignited the debate over the effectiveness of omega-3 supplements, linking their use to accelerated cognitive decline in the elderly, raising questions about their ability to protect the brain. Scientific evidence indicates that consuming omega-3s from dietary sources, such as fatty fish (salmon, sardines, and mackerel), provides stronger benefits for heart and vascular health compared to simply taking supplements. Experts emphasize that dementia prevention requires a comprehensive healthy lifestyle, including proper nutrition, physical activity, and adequate sleep. They also stress the importance of consulting a doctor before using omega-3 supplements, especially since they may interact with medications and increase the risks of bleeding or heart rhythm disorders.
