“Three COSMOS cognitive substudies found small improvements in global cognition and episodic memory among older adults who received a standard multivitamin. Vitamin D supplementation can help correct low vitamin D status, which is influenced by sun exposure, skin pigmentation, season, latitude, and other factors.”

“In older adults, a large randomized research program found a modest benefit on cognitive testing from a daily basic multivitamin. Vitamin D and magnesium are better matched to total intake, laboratory status, and individual needs.”

“A basic multivitamin may help cover small nutrient gaps. In three related COSMOS cognitive substudies, a daily multivitamin produced a small average improvement in global cognition and episodic memory among older adults.”

We critically examine an Annals editorial reviewing three multivitamin studies, their shortcomings, and relevant mechanisms.

“A related COSMOS-Mind analysis followed 2,262 older adults for three years. Among participants who developed mild cognitive impairment, those assigned to a daily multivitamin showed less decline in global cognition and executive function.”

“A multivitamin can provide broad nutritional insurance, while magnesium needs depend on diet, physical activity, and gastrointestinal tolerance. Dr. Patrick also includes sulforaphane as a phytochemical that activates NRF2-regulated cellular defenses.”

“Zinc supplementation combined with the use of a multivitamin has also been shown to reduce anger and depression compared to the use of a multivitamin alone. Learn more about the role of zinc in human health on our zinc topic page.”

“However, the multivitamin did not produce clear effects on three other epigenetic clocks: PCHorvath, PCHannum, or DunedinPACE.”

“The study involved more than 3,500 older adults (average age, 71 years) enrolled in the COSMOS trial. About half of the participants took a daily multivitamin/multimineral supplement for three years, and the other half took a placebo.”

“In this clip from Dr. Rhonda Patrick's appearance on Huberman Lab, she explains the evidence behind several supplements in her routine. In the COSMOS trial program, a standard daily multivitamin produced a small average benefit in global cognition and episodic memory among older adults over two to three years.”
