Omega 3 Helping To Reduce Risk Of Dementia

Dr Susanne Sorensen, Head of Research, Alzheimer's Society stated that many studies on diet and dementia concluded the majority of the population can reduce their risk by eating a diet rich in vegetables, fruit and fish.

Significantly, results show that it matters which oils people choose to include in their diet. Omega 3 fatty acids such as those in fatty fish and nuts are particularly beneficial whereas omega 6 fatty acids as in sunflower oil need to be balanced out by beneficiary omega 3 oils. A Mediterranean diet full of green leafy vegetables, oily fish and the odd glass of red wine is the best type of diet for those who want to follow a diet that can help lower their chances of developing dementia.
