Background and key takeaways:
Dr. Aleix Sala-Vila got his PhD in 2004 in biomedicine from the University of Barcelona and did four postdoctoral fellowships, which increased his breadth and depth of understanding in the nutrition field. He has experience from cell culture work all the way up to epidemiology and is particularly interested in how nutrients affect chronic disease. In this episode, Drs. Harris and Sala-Vila talk about omega-3s and how these nutrients affect the chronic disease of dementia. Aleix has got 151 publications, 76 of which have to do with fatty acid. So he's a bonafide expert in this field.
