Can taking DHA improve Alzheimer's?
Informal reports by doctors giving senile dementia patients around 700 mg DHA daily are positive. These small-scale trials are based on physician examinations and interviews, which are not objective enough to establish clear conclusions. While these preliminary findings are promising, larger, better controlled studies are necessary before this question can be fully answered. What is encouraging, though, is that taking DHA does not worsen the condition. So, supplementing extra antioxidants, DHA, and other nutritive factors which have positive effects (such as ginkgo biloba), is a sensible strategy for those concerned about this serious mental disease.
