Study: Lithium treatments found to stabilize the memory of patients with Alzheimer’s disease
Researchers from Brazil are suggesting that lithium could potentially halt the progression of Alzheimer’s disease. In a study published in the journal Current Alzheimer Research, they wrote that the memory of Alzheimer’s patients stabilized after taking small doses of lithium. The team also reported that lithium was able to slow down the aging of brain cells. While research is still ongoing, they […]

Having PTSD and an abnormal mix of gut bacteria linked to poor cognitive performance in military veterans
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and cirrhosis make for a debilitating combination among veterans. On top of their impact on both mental health and hepatic health in patients, scant research and little medical progress complicate treatment for either condition. In a major breakthrough, Jasmohan Bajaj, a gastroenterologist from Virginia Commonwealth University, and his colleagues found that an imbalanced gut might […]

Research reveals unlikely connection between oral health and cognitive decline among the elderly
A recent study published in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society showed that poor oral health is linked to cognitive decline. Researchers at New York University Rory Meyers College of Nursing, the University of Nevada and Rutgers University found that older Chinese adults in the U.S. who reported teeth symptoms experienced faster cognitive decline than those who reported gum symptoms. This finding underscores […]

Succeeding where Big Pharma failed: Plant-based nutrients in mushrooms and tea found to delay cognitive decline linked to Alzheimer’s
A team of researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) identified an antioxidant in mushrooms that can reduce the risk of mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Published in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease, the study reported that adults aged 60 and above who consumed more than two portions of mushroom each week for six years had a lower […]

Which antioxidants can be used to protect brain function?
Antioxidants are compounds found in plants, especially those used as food by humans. These compounds play an important role inside the body as they prevent or slow the damage caused by free radicals to cells. Free radicals are byproducts of metabolism, specifically the breakdown of food into energy. If the body is unable to remove […]

The bigger your brain, the better your cognitive performance: Study
For decades, scientists have been trying to answer the age-old question of whether or not the size of the human brain correlates with cognitive performance. In a recent study — the largest of its kind — researchers at the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn) and Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (VU Amsterdam) finally found empirical evidence suggesting that brain volume is positively associated […]

Researchers find a new method of using bone marrow stem cells to reverse multiple sclerosis (MS) in animal subjects
Stem cell therapy, also known as regenerative medicine, is a type of treatment that harnesses the power of stem cells to promote the repair of diseased, dysfunctional or damaged tissue. Stem cells, which serve as the body’s raw materials, are the earliest form of all cells in the human body. Prior to their maturation into specialized […]

Neuroscientists construct 3D facial models using data from a person’s brain when remembering the face of someone familiar
The code that our brains use to tell faces apart has been reverse engineered. This is because, for the first time, neuroscientists were able to construct 3D facial models using information stored in an individual’s brain when recalling faces of familiar people. The study, published in the Nature Human Behaviour journal, came about as a […]
