New research findings in 2009
=============================

Omega-3 fatty acids found in fish such as tuna and salmon may
protect against (AMD), age-related macular degeneration. The
benefits however, appear to depend on the stage of disease and
whether certain supplements are taken. This is according to
researchers at the Laboratory for Nutrition and Vision Research
(LNVR), Jean Mayer USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on
Aging (HNRCA) at Tufts University.


The researchers calculated intakes of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)
and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) from dietary questionnaires
administered to 2,924 men and women, aged 55 to 80 years,
participating in an eight-year supplement trial, the Age-Related
Eye Disease Study (AREDS) of the National Eye Institute (NEI).
The AREDS trial results suggest taking supplements of antioxidants
plus zinc prevents progression of late-stage AMD. AREDS study
participants were randomly allocated to receive either a placebo
or supplements containing the antioxidants vitamins C and E and
beta carotene, the minerals zinc and copper, or a combination of
both.


The study was awarded The Association for Research in Vision and
Ophthalmology (ARVO)-American Foundation for Eye Research (AFER)/
Merck Innovative Ophthalmology Research Award at the ARVO 2009
Annual Conference in May.
