    Materials and Methods: Systematic reviews are a form of research that collects and provides a summary on a specific topic, aimed at answering a research question. They must be conducted according to a pre-established design. This systematic review includes 10 articles selected through the databases Epistemonikos, PubMed, ResearchGate, and SciELO. The 10 selected articles are quantitative studies: 10% (N=1/10) are meta-analyses, 30% (N=3/10) are systematic reviews, 50% (N=5/10) are randomized clinical trials, and 10% (N=1/10) are cohort studies. Results: In this systematic review, based on the evidence found, 60% (N=6/10) indicate that omega-3 fatty acids are effective in preventing cognitive decline in older adults. Conclusion: Omega-3 fatty acids are effective in preventing cognitive decline in older adults.
