Omega 3 Fatty Acids brain nutrients: 'smart fats'

Dietary Sources: Omega 3 fatty acids (the 'smart fats') are found in fish oil (fresh sardines are particularly good), linseed oil, butter nuts, walnuts and kiwi fruit seeds.

Brain Effects: As a brain nutrient omega 3 fatty acids are essential for brain functioning. Our bodies cannot synthesize omega 3 so we need dietary sources or supplements. Dietary deficiency of omega 3 results in impaired learning and memory, and increases the risk of several mental disorders, including depression, attention-deficit disorder, dementia, dyslexia, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.

Omega 3 brain supplements have been found effective in treating mood disorders such as depression. Supplementation increases brain plasticity, and reduces cognitive decline in overall brain functioning, including fluid intelligence, in the elderly. Omega 3 dietary supplementation has also been found to improve concentration and academic ability in school children. It is excellent brain nutrition.

A growing body of scientific research also shows that these healthy fats help prevent a wide range of physical health problems including cardiovascular disease, asthma, and rheumatoid arthritis.
