Could omega-3 prevent dementia? | Axel Montagne, Ph.D.

People with high levels of omega-3 DHA are ~50% less likely to develop Alzheimer's disease compared to people with low levels. Disruption of brain DHA transport via the MFSD2A transporter causes blood-brain barrier breakdown. Furthermore, where we lose pericytes - which are important for dementia prevention - overlaps with the loss of DHA transporters. In this clip, Dr. Axel Montagne discusses how the brain transport of omega-3 DHA may be important for the prevention and possibly as a therapy for dementia.
