In this study, the researchers examined more than 1219 old men’s blood sample who are over 65 – year – old, to evaluate the relationship between nutrition intake and beta – amyloid content. All participants are hollow draw-out blood samples and they have 1-2 days of food intake information before providing blood samples. Research tested 10 nutrition including saturated fatty acid, omega – 3 and omega – 6 not saturated fatty acid, single unsaturated fatty acid, vitamin E, vitamin C, beta carotene, vitamin B12, folic acid and vitamin D with contact of beta – amyloid. ebiochem.com

The results showed that the hightest intake of oemga – 3 fatty acids shows the minimun of beta amyloid. Compared with the average level intake of Omega 3 fatty acid, their beta – starch content was reduced by 20% to 30%. ebiochem.com

The researchers said further research will determine whether intake omega 3 fatty acid and other nutrients can reduce the Low spinal cord or brain beta – amyloid content or reduce other protein content related to dementia. ebiochem.com
