Carol Forsloff---Alzheimer's disease impacts more than one-third of all those over the age of 80, according to statistics; however new research indicates potential for reversing memory loss.
Cognitive impairment is considered almost epidemic in the United States, scientists tell us, with one reason cited that structural changes and loss of brain synapses lead to rapid decline in cognitive health, even as people are living longer. Scientists have found, however, that the brain has more plasticity than earlier believe and nutritional research is providing insight into what might reverse memory declines.
What scientists have found is that magnesium deficiency may play a key role in restoring aging brains. Dr. Guosong Liu, a key expert in cognitive health, found that supplemental magnesium had substantial positive impact on the aging brains of mice.
Dr. Liu said of his research, “There is no question that cognitive impairment is a major fear and health issue for the nation. People are living longer and they want to take steps to maintain the quality of their physical and mental health. Cognitive impairment can affect a person's memory, language, perception, ability to plan and carry out tasks and judgment. A recently concluded double blind, placebo-controlled human study, the 'gold standard' of science, demonstrates that dietary supplementation of Magtein, patented magnesium threonate, can significantly enhance human cognitive functions and decrease symptoms of cognitive impairments.”
