Dietary Intake of n-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids Prior to a Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Demonstrates a Dose–Response Effect for Neuroprotective Benefits in Male C57BL/6 Mice
Overall, these results show that dietary n-3 PUFA confer neuroprotective benefits in mice resulting in significantly improved functional outcomes. This work is relevant to clinical practitioners, athletes, and the general population who aim to support their neurological health through dietary or supplementary n-3 PUFA.
