While these supplements offer no cognitive advantage over placebos, a new meta-analysis from the Fatty Acid Research Institute indicates that low-dose omega-3 intake does not increase the risk of atrial fibrillation. These findings suggest that while omega-3s may not prevent cognitive decline, they do not necessarily trigger specific heart rhythm issues when taken in smaller amounts.

The supplements raised fatty acid levels in the brain but offered no advantage over a placebo.
