Researchers reported that a diet that includes a key omega-3 fatty acid found in fish and canola oil prevents some memory loss in mice that develop a disease similar to Alzheimer's. They looked at a fatty acid, called docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). It is essential to brain function and Alzheimer's patients have low concentrations of it in their blood.
