A Nutrient Combination that Can Affect Synapse Formation

A Nutrient Combination that Can Affect Synapse Formation

Brain neurons form synapses throughout the life span. This process is initiated by neuronal depolarization, however the numbers of synapses thus formed depend on brain levels of three key nutrients—uridine, the omega-3 fatty acid DHA, and choline. Given together, these nutrients accelerate formation...
