Index

This book looks at a broad range of current research relating to health issues modified by fatty acids. Thus personalized diets and lifestyle interventions via fatty acid intakes change disease risk and health outcomes. These include the primary emphasis on a wide variety of cardiovascular diseases issues. The second major focus relates to fatty acids in nerves for changes in neurological functions and their diseases like mood disorders, Alzheimer’s disease and cognition. The other emphases include cancer, obesity, inflammation, physical function, and lung disease and health.
