Fig. 1From: Novel insights into the effect of vitamin B12 and omega-3 fatty acids on brain functionProposed mechanisms through which vitamin B12 and omega-3 fatty acids affects brain functioning. Alerted intake/metabolism of vitamin B12 and omega-3 fatty acids affects brain function through multiple pathways. Increased homocysteine levels and altered epigenetic modification influences brain neurotrophins and neuro-vascular function directly or through increased oxidative stress and lower brain omega-3 fatty acid levels which may increase the risk for neurological disorders and cognitive impairmentBack to article page
