Intakes of (n-3) Fatty Acid and Fatty Fish Are Not Associated with Cognitive Performance and 6-Year Cognitive Change in Men Participating in the Veterans Affairs Normative Aging Study
The Journal of Nutrition, 10/23/09

van de Rest O et al. – The mean age of participating men was 68 y at baseline. Median fish consumption ranged from 0.2 to 4.2 servings/wk across quartiles. Cross–sectional analyses showed no association between fatty fish or (n–3) PUFA intake and cognitive performance. Longitudinal analyses, over 6 y of follow–up, also did not show any significant associations between fatty fish or (n–3) PUFA intake and cognitive change. In this population of elderly men, intake of neither fatty fish nor (n–3) PUFA was associated with cognitive performance.
