an international group of scientists, which included researchers at Harvard and Zurich universities, during a three -year study studied age -related changes in cells and organs. According to The Guardian, the clinical data of 777 elderly Swiss were analyzed as part of the work.
The results showed that people who take one gram of omega-3 daily, biological aging slowed down to four months compared to those who did not use the additive.
Scientists also noted that the intake of vitamin D and regular physical exercises (at least 30 minutes three times a week) gave an even more pronounced positive effect.
In addition, the researchers emphasized that the diet rich omega-3 helps to reduce inflammatory processes, improve the health of joints, as well as a decrease in the risks of cardiovascular diseases, cancer and dementia.
Commenting on the study, a researcher at the Royal College of London in the field of geriatric medicine Mary, neither Lochlinen noted that “these simple and inexpensive measures benefit and deserve attention of people as they are aging.”
The results of the study are published in the journal Nature Aing.
