“Alzheimer's disease gradually erodes memory, language, and independence, leaving few treatment options once the condition becomes severe. Researchers explored whether psilocybin, a naturally occurring psychedelic compound in certain mushrooms, could affect abilities that had been severely impaired for years.”

“Interrupted cellular reprogramming capitalizes on residual epigenetic memory and requires the presence of Yamanaka factors, a group of proteins that can reprogram differentiated (mature) cells into pluripotent stem cells.”

“In addition, those who took the blend did not exhibit any cognitive impairments, but they did demonstrate improvements in daytime attention, working memory, and risk assessment. These findings suggest that a blend of rosmarinic acid and EGCG enhances sleep and improves daytime cognitive performance in people with poor sleep.”

“Maternal sugar consumption, particularly from sugar-sweetened beverages, was associated with poorer childhood cognition including non-verbal abilities to solve novel problems, poorer verbal memory, poorer fine motor, and poorer visual-spatial/visual-motor abilities in childhood.”

“Participants who experienced four mild concussions had difficulty with processing speed and working memory – an aspect of cognitive function that allows a person to remember information for relevant tasks.”

“As people age, sleeping problems become more common, often affecting mood, memory, and overall health. A recent study found that resistance training improves sleep in older adults better than other forms of exercise.”

“The brain's hippocampus is vital for memory and learning but tends to shrink with age, contributing to cognitive decline. A recent study found that high-intensity interval training (HIIT) improves hippocampal-dependent cognitive abilities in older adults better than other forms of exercise.”

“Glyphosate-exposed Alzheimer's-prone mice had lower survival rates, more difficulty in spatial memory tasks, and increased markers of Alzheimer's pathology, including larger and more numerous amyloid-beta plaques and higher levels of phosphorylated tau protein.”

“Regular exercise has long been known to protect cognitive functions such as attention, memory, and processing speed as we age. A recent study found that exercise may also improve older adults' language comprehension by enhancing cardiorespiratory fitness—the body's capacity to deliver and use oxygen-rich blood.”

“The MRI studies revealed that infants of women who consumed higher quantities of omega-3 fatty acids had greater brain volume in specific regions of the frontal cortex and corpus callosum – areas of the brain involved in consciousness, communication, memory, attention, and integration of motor, sensory, and cognitive performance between the brain's hemispheres, respectively.”
