\u201cThe findings of this systematic review suggest that supplementation of B Complex vitamins, especially folic acid, may have a positive effect on delaying and preventing the risk of cognitive decline. Ascorbic acid and a high dose of vitamin E, when given separately, also showed positive effects on cognitive performance, but there is not sufficient evidence to support their use. The results of vitamin D supplementation trials are not conclusive in assessing the potential benefits that vitamin D might have on cognition<\/em>,\u201d the study<\/a> said.<\/p>\n While dementia is a serious degenerative disorder, it\u2019s not always the cause of cognitive decline.<\/p>\n An article<\/a> by Zoey Sky detailed how artificial flavors, food colors, sweeteners, inflammation, infection, mold, Lyme disease, mercury and other metals, prescription medications and hormonal imbalances all may cause cognitive inabilities.<\/p>\n Another study<\/a> documented how the food choices of one\u2019s diet can affect nutrition which in turn can affect the brain\u2019s performance or lack thereof.<\/p>\n \u201cConsuming a balanced, nutritious diet is important for maintaining health, especially as people age. Several studies suggest that consuming a diet rich in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory components such as those found in fruits, nuts and vegetables may reduce age-related cognitive decline and the risk of developing various neurodegenerative diseases<\/em>,\u201d the study<\/a> said.<\/p>\n Another study<\/a> documented how a lack of certain nutrients can result in dementia.<\/p>\n \u201cConcurrent nutrient deficiencies are associated with the risk of dementia. The potential of optimizing nutritional status to lower dementia risk warrants further study<\/em>,\u201d the study<\/a> showed.<\/p>\n One study<\/a> looked at the nerve growth factor potential of Hericium erinaceus<\/em> (lion\u2019s mane mushrooms).<\/p>\n \u201cNerve growth factor (NGF) has potent biological activities, such as preventing neuronal death and promoting neurite outgrowth, and is essential to maintain and organize neurons functionally. It is assumed that functional deficiency of NGF is related to Alzheimer\u2019s disease and plays a part in the etiology of the disease process<\/em>,\u201d the study<\/a> said. \u201cHericenones (compounds in the Hericium erinaceus) exhibited stimulating activity for the biosynthesis of NGF in vitro<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n An article<\/a> by George Citroner chronicled how three vitamins, B, D and Omega-3 can reduce dementia risk.<\/p>\n An article<\/a> by Emily Henderson documented how people with higher levels of vitamin D in the brain have better cognitive function. Vitamin D<\/a> is the cheapest vitamin to procure, as it can be generated in the body<\/a> from sunlight.<\/p>\n A study<\/a> found that Omega-3 fatty acids can increase cognitive function.<\/p>\n \u201cConsumption of omega-3 improved learning, memory ability, cognitive well-being, and blood flow in the brain. Omega-3 therapies are beneficial, well-tolerated, and very low-risk<\/em>,\u201d the study<\/a> said.<\/p>\n Another study<\/a> analyzed PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases and found that vitamin B<\/a> is effective in slowing cognitive decline.<\/p>\n \u201cThis meta-analysis suggests that B vitamin supplementation is associated with slowing of cognitive decline, especially in populations who received early intervention and intervention of long duration; the study also indicates that higher intake of dietary <\/em>folate<\/em><\/a>, but not <\/em>B12<\/em><\/a> or B6, is associated with a reduced risk of incident dementia in non-dementia aged population<\/em>,\u201d the study<\/a> explained.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n yogaesoteric <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Dementia can be prevented and cured by eating the right nutrition, numerous new studies have found. \u201cThere is extensive evidence supporting a relationship between diet and cognitive functions,\u201d one of the studies said.
