Long-chain Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids and Their Role in Children Nourishment

Year: 2012

Type: article

Abstract: The article deals with the mechanisms of metabolism of linoleic and α- linoleic polyunsaturated fatty acids as precursors of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids — arachidonic ( ω-6 family) and docosahexaenoic acid ( ω- 3 famyli). The authors demonstrate the results of modern experimental and clinical trials, studying their influence on cognitive development and vision keenness in animals, preterm and term infants.
