Omega-3 fatty acids are associated with blood-brain barrier integrity in a healthy aging population

Several studies have demonstrated the link between inflammation, depression, lower omega-3 (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), and higher omega-6 (n-6) PUFAs levels, however, the evidence from randomized control trials (RCTs) remains unclear.
