New form of omega-3 could prevent visual decline with Alzheimer’s disease: By crossing into the retina, new DHA supplement achieves what previous ones could not
For the first time, researchers have developed a form of the omega-3 fatty acid docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) that is capable of crossing into the eye’s retina to ward off visual declines related to Alzheimer’s disease, diabetes and other disorders.
