Causal Relationships Between LC-omega-3-enriched Diet and Cognition

This study will use a randomized placebo-controlled double-blind design and the intervention period will be 6 months. Participants will be instructed to consume 4 x 1285 mg fish oil capsules/d, two capsules with each of the main daily meals. The placebo will be composed of corn/soybean oil as used in other randomized placebo-controlled trials. The daily treatment will provide 1.2 g/d of DHA and 2.4 g/d of EPA (Ocean Nutrition Canada, Dartmouth, NS). All capsules will contain citrus flavor to mask the fishy taste and odor of the LC-omega-3 oil and will be provided to the participants monthly.
