Primary Outcome(s)
Main Objective: To evaluate the DHA increase in patients plasma treated with DHA and 5-MTHF + Vit. B12 and with DHA
Secondary Objective: 1. To evaluate the change in fat acids profile in the patients blood treated with DHA and 5-MTHF + Vit. B12 and with DHA 2. To evaluate the membrane fluidity in blood cells 3. To evaluate the change in levels of inflammation protein markers in plasma and blood 4. To evaluate the auxometric parameters and pulmonary functionality 5. To evaluate serum levels of LDL, HDL, cholesterol and TG, in the different experimental conditions and in the different estimated times
Primary end point(s): To evaluate the DHA levels in patients plasma treated with DHA and 5-MTHF + Vit. B12 and with DHA . Moreover will be evaluated the fat acids profile in the blood, the inflammation protein in the plasma, the membrane fluidity in the monocities, the seric lipid parameters. Furthermore will be record the patient’s diet of 72 with the aim to exclude eventually interferences for the intake of foods rich oh DHA, folic acid and B12 vitamin
