sciencedirect.com/science/articl…. Exciting findings from my doctoral work! We directly measured sulfur amino acid requirements in healthy pregnant mothers & our findings suggest that requirements are LOWER than current DRI recommendations (first amino acid to have this finding)

DHA, an omega-3 fatty acid, is essential for healthy brain functioning. Dr. Elango & his team found that blood DHA levels are linked with cognitive performance in kids, but there was a surprisingly meagre association between diet and actual DHA levels: bcchr.info/3cDjdHh
