Everyone should take a multivitamin. It's a simple, effective way to support long-term cognitive health, especially for middle-aged and older adults. About a decade ago, multivitamins were deemed useless or harmful. Recent large, randomized controlled studies provide irrefutable evidence to the contrary. Adults taking a standard multivitamin for 2...

A daily multivitamin could significantly reverse cognitive aging by up to 5 years Multiple randomized controlled trials show older adults taking a standard multivitamin (like Centrum Silver) had measurable improvements in processing speed, cognition, and episodic memory (the ability to recall experiences and events) Far from being "expensive urine," a multivitamin can actually make your brain functionally younger—restoring memory to levels seen five years earlier

Rhonda Patrick dropped this on Mayim Bialik’s podcast:“As simple as a cheap daily multivitamin… it reversed brain aging by five years.” Three large randomized controlled trials showed that older adults taking a basic affordable multivitamin for a couple of years slowed cognitive aging by about 3 years and reversed episodic memory aging by roughly 5 years. The COSMOS trial and related studies found daily multivitamin use improved memory, executive function, and slowed brain aging in older adults, likely by filling common micronutrient gaps. It’s a reminder that sometimes the simplest things still pack a real punch. In our rush for fancy biohacks and expensive protocols, we often overlook basic, affordable interventions that actually have strong evidence behind them. What about you — do you take a daily multivitamin, or do you rely purely on food?

Taking a daily multivitamin slowed brain aging by 2 years in older adults. Rhonda Patrick highlighted three large randomized placebo-controlled trials (COSMOS) with ~5,000 participants aged 65+. The group taking a multivitamin (magnesium, B vitamins, folate, vitamin K, etc.) showed clear improvements in cognition and slower brain aging compared to placebo. Simple micronutrients making a measurable difference. What’s your take, would this make you consider adding a high-quality multivitamin to your routine?

Taking a daily multivitamin can reverse cognitive aging by several years Multiple randomized controlled trials found that older adults who took a basic multivitamin (like Centrum Silver) experienced clear improvements in overall cognitive function This included faster processing speed and dramatically enhanced episodic memory (the memory used to recall personal experiences and events) Far from useless, a simple multivitamin could be one of your strongest allies against cognitive decline

For brain health in older adults, a multivitamin is no longer “optional” - it’s a high-priority basic In three large randomized trials of adults 65+, taking a standard multivitamin like Centrum Silver for one year slowed global brain aging by about 2.1 years and episodic memory aging by almost 5 years That means better retention of everyday experiences, names, faces, and events (the things families actually notice when memory starts to fade) Given how common poor diets and micronutrient gaps are, a single daily multivitamin is an easy, low-effort way to protect aging brains

A daily multivitamin can reduce brain aging and modestly slow down epigenetic aging clocks. In the COSMOS trial, older adults who took a standard Centrum Silver multivitamin daily for about 4 years performed better on cognitive tests and showed the equivalent of ~2 years less brain aging compared with those taking a placebo. The multivitamin also slowed epigenetic aging clocks, with an effect equivalent to about 2.7 to 5 months of slowed biological aging. That may sound modest, but I don’t think it’s trivial, and Prof Steve Horvath says that effects from safe, low-cost interventions can matter if they’re sustained over years to decades—2 months of slower biological aging could translate to 2.5 years if a good habit is maintained. These data push back on the idea that multivitamins are “completely useless.” If you’re filling nutritional gaps consistently over time, even a small benefit to cognition and biological aging could become meaningful. From the latest episode of the FoundMyFitness podcast.

A run-of-the-mill multivitamin can measurably change how your brain ages In three large randomized controlled trials of older adults (65+), daily Centrum Silver led to about 2 years less brain aging versus placebo Even more striking, episodic memory aging (remembering experiences, people, and events) looked roughly 5 years “younger” in the multivitamin group On top of that, it acts as basic insurance, filling micronutrient gaps that most diets simply don’t cover

A daily multivitamin may be one of the lowest-effort ways to make an older brain functionally younger In large randomized trials of older adults (65+), those taking a basic multivitamin (Centrum Silver) showed better overall cognition, about a 2-year reduction in global brain aging, and ~4.8 years' improvement in episodic memory (the ability to remember events and experiences) Given that ~60% of Americans are low in vitamin E, ~45–50% in magnesium, ~35% in vitamin C, and 80–90% in omega-3s (with additional gaps in vitamin K and calcium), it’s clear many brains are running on suboptimal micronutrient status For many, a basic multivitamin is a practical way to close these gaps and protect cognitive function with age

These are the supplements I give my aging parents: • A daily multivitamin • Vitamin D • High-DHA omega-3s • Ubiquinol (the reduced form of CoQ10) • Sulforaphane Why these? Large RCTs show improved cognition in older adults taking a standard multivitamin, with benefits equivalent to a brain that's 2-5 years younger. For vitamin D, more than 70% of older U.S. adults are insufficient, and aging skin produces far less vitamin D from sunlight (a 70-year-old makes roughly 4x less than their 20-year-old self). DHA is a key structural fat in the brain and supports cognitive function, especially important with aging and neurodegenerative risk, while CoQ10 supports mitochondrial energy production as levels drop with age. Finally, sulforaphane is a powerful activator of Nrf2, the body's master stress-response pathway, up-regulating glutathione and phase II detox enzymes.

Supplementing with creatine (20 grams/day) improved cognitive function in Alzheimer’s patients by nearly 5% after just 8 weeks Patients experienced notable gains in memory, fluid cognition, inhibitory control, and attention (likely due to creatine’s key role in brain energy metabolism) Creatine seems to especially benefit the brain under stress (whether Alzheimer's, sleep deprivation, or depression), making it a promising tool for supporting cognitive health

My grandfather Dr. GS Kulkarni is 93 years old, he still works, studies and researches and most importantly he exercises for 45 mins to 1 hour everyday. It is extremely important for our parents and grandparents to be active and perform strength training. Exercise is important for older adults because it can improve their physical and mental health. Active people have lower mortality rates compared to inactive people. People who met the minimum exercise recommendations (150-300 min/week moderate or 75-150 min/week vigorous) saw a significant reduction in mortality rates. Adults who engage in aerobic and muscle strengthening activities show greatly reduced risk of all cause and cause specific mortality Exercise is extremely important for cognitive health with numerous studies showing that exercise improves cognition and potentially prevents or delay cognitive decline. Physical exercise can reduce global cognitive decline and lessen behavioural problems in people with MCI or dementia. Physical activity was associated with a decreased incidence of cognitive impairment or decline Exercise can also improve skin health, this one study found that exercise significantly improved skin elasticity upper dermal structure, and dermal thickness Older adults should exercise under the guidance of a professional.

As a physician, this blueberry study still impresses me. 🫐🧠 A six-month study of adults aged 65 to 80 found that daily wild blueberries significantly improved brain processing speed, helping you think and react faster. Even better: the improvements were especially noticeable in those with mild cognitive concerns, helping restore performance closer to those without issues. Simple, delicious, and powerful. Add a handful of wild blueberries (fresh, frozen, or powder) to your routine — your brain will thank you. What’s your favorite way to eat blueberries? Reference: Cheatham et al. (2023).
