Researchers have found that eating omega-3 fatty acids in midlife may result in better thinking skills and better brain structure than those who consume fewer foods containing these essential fatty acids.
Great food sources of the two key active components of omega 3 (DHA and EPA) include oily fish (such as salmon or mackerel). Key sources of the long chain omega 3 fatty acid which can be converted to DHA and EPA, are flaxseeds and flax oil, chia seeds and walnuts. A high-quality and sustainably sourced supplement will also help support your wellbeing.
