Magnesium L-threonate too. Crosses blood-brain barrier sending magnesium directly into cerebrospinal fluid and neurons. "…improves overall cognition, cognitive age, working memory, reaction time."

Can supplements slow cognitive decline? I think a few show promise: Omega-3s (EPA and DHA) - Important for neuronal membranes, brain function, and resolving inflammation. Higher omega-3 levels are associated with lower dementia risk. Multivitamins - Daily multivitamins improved cognition in older adults in the COSMOS trials, with benefits equivalent to roughly 2 fewer years of global cognitive aging. Vitamin D - Supplementation has been associated with a 40% lower dementia risk, while low vitamin D levels are linked to a 50 to 80% higher risk. Creatine - 20 g/day for 8 weeks increased brain creatine by 11% and improved several cognitive measures in a small Alzheimer's pilot study. This one is promising, but preliminary. Sulforaphane - Increases glutathione levels in the brain. Early trials also suggest cognitive benefits. Exogenous ketones - Provide an alternative fuel for the brain, potentially compensating for impaired glucose metabolism in people with cognitive impairment. None of these is proven to prevent dementia, but they represent promising approaches to supporting brain health through nutrition, energy metabolism, and inflammation regulation. And remember, supplements should complement (not replace) the fundamentals like exercise, sleep, and metabolic health!

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.

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

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

Vitamin D supplementation was associated with a 40% lower risk of dementia over a decade. After five years, 84% of supplement users were dementia-free compared to just 68% of non-users in a study of over 12,000 people. Vitamin D reduced dementia risk by 33% in adults with mild cognitive impairment or APOE e4, a key genetic risk factor for neurodegenerative diseases. Vitamin D isn’t just a vitamin—it's a steroid hormone regulating over 2,000 genes critical for brain development, neuroplasticity, and inflammation control. Its roles include clearing amyloid beta plaques and tau buildup, boosting neuron survival via neurotrophic factors like BDNF, and enhancing brain connectivity, particularly when paired with exercise. It’s no surprise, then, that higher vitamin D levels are associated with better cognition, larger hippocampal volume, and lower Alzheimer’s risk. Multiple lines of evidence support this. More than 30 large studies have consistently linked low vitamin D levels to a 50–150% increased dementia risk. People genetically prone to low vitamin D—those with genetic variations affecting vitamin D production or metabolism—have a 54% higher dementia risk. Furthermore, supplementing with 800 IU/day of vitamin D improves memory and cognitive function in people with mild cognitive impairment and more serious forms of dementia. To learn more about optimizing vitamin D levels for cognitive health, including underlying brain-protective mechanisms and practical supplementation protocols, see the latest FoundMyFitness video.

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?

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 years improved cognition and episodic memory, equivalent to a 2-year reduction in cognitive aging. Multivitamins provide micronutrients missing from our diets—those important for metabolism, neurotransmission, and most importantly, reducing DNA damage and oxidative stress that contribute to aging. Think of it as nutritional insurance for your body and brain. And don't let anyone tell you it's just making "expensive urine."

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

Creatine supplementation at ~10 grams/day may be a targeted way to support brain function in older adults While muscle tissues become saturated at 5 grams/day, surpassing this threshold allows more creatine to reach the brain and raise brain phosphocreatine levels Higher phosphocreatine availability supports cognitive performance specifically under brain stressors like aging, sleep deprivation, and neurodegenerative disease And because aging places ongoing metabolic demands on the brain, this additional phosphocreatine reserve may help support brain energy metabolism when it’s under strain

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?
