Exploring Supplements for Enhanced Cognitive Function and Memory Improvement

A user inquires about supplements that improve cognition and memory. The assistant suggests adding B vitamins, Vitamin D, E, C, Zinc, Magnesium, Iron, Creatine, Nootropics, Probiotics, and Polyphenols to their regimen.

  • Hi I’ve started trying out omega 369 & lions mane mushroom and have noticed my memory being efficient & being more focused, but is there any other beneficial vitamins/supplements that is good for cognition/memory ?

  • Adding omega-3, 6, and 9 and Lion's Mane mushroom to your regimen are excellent choices for enhancing cognition and memory. However, there are other vitamins and supplements that have been shown to benefit cognitive function and memory:

    1. B Vitamins: Vitamins B6, B9 (folic acid), and B12 are crucial for brain health. They help to reduce levels of homocysteine, an amino acid linked to cognitive decline1.
    2. Vitamin D: While results are mixed, some studies suggest that vitamin D can be important for cognitive function1.
    3. Vitamin E: Known for its antioxidant properties, vitamin E may help protect cells, including brain cells, from damage1.
    4. Vitamin C: This vitamin acts as an antioxidant and is important for neurotransmitter function1.
    5. Zinc: Zinc is essential for numerous enzymatic processes in the brain and may affect cognitive function2.
    6. Magnesium: Important for neurotransmitter function and neural plasticity, magnesium may support cognitive health2.
    7. Iron: Required for proper oxygen transport and enzymatic function in the brain2.

    Beyond vitamins and minerals, other supplements could be beneficial:

    1. Creatine: Often used for muscle health, creatine supplementation has also shown promise in improving cognitive processing and brain function3.
    2. Nootropics: Certain nootropic supplements like Bacopa monnieri, Rhodiola rosea, and Ginkgo biloba have been reported to improve cognitive functions4.
    3. Probiotics: These can impact the gut-brain axis and have potential benefits for brain health and cognitive function2.
    4. Polyphenols: Found in foods like berries and green tea, polyphenols have antioxidant properties and may support brain health4.
