“The double-blind randomized controlled trial involved 106 adults between the ages of 40 and 85 years who were sedentary and overweight. The authors of the study provided participants with a supplement containing 1.25 grams or 2.5 grams of omega-3 fatty acids or a placebo.”

“At the end of the six-month period, the parents and children completed personality assessments and provided reports about the children's behavior, especially externalizing behavior (such as fighting or lying) and internalizing behavior, such as depression, anxiety, and withdrawal.”

“Evidence indicates they also act as "decoys" to protect the infant from gut infections; break down biofilms that group-B streptococcus bacteria create to protect themselves from antimicrobials and antibiotics; and enhance the activity of some antibiotics by increasing the membrane permeability of pathogenic bacteria.”

“Gut microbes metabolize food, supplements, and medications and produce compounds such as short-chain fatty acids and bile acids, which are absorbed into the bloodstream and facilitate communication between the microbiota and host.”

“The most compelling human signal appears when the brain is under acute strain. In a randomized crossover study, a single dose of 0.35 grams per kilogram during 21 hours of sleep deprivation changed cerebral energy metabolites and preserved selected measures of cognitive performance.”

“Study 1; Study 2. 02:04:59 - National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) ensures quality and safety of dietary supplements. 02:13:57 - When gut bacteria from young fish were transplanted into old fish, it extended their lifespan by 37%.”

“The randomized controlled study involved 362 children between the ages of seven and nine years who had below-average reading skills, with most of the children reading at levels about 18 months younger than their chronological ages.”

“Research in humans is needed to determine the degree to which quercetin may blunt exercise-induced adaptations, especially studies that investigate varying types of exercise in combination with quercetin along with the dose and timing of supplementation.”
