Nutrients connected to Alzheimer'S Disease
A link means the body needs the nutrient for this, or that low intake is linked to it. It does not mean extra supplements help if your intake is already adequate; each link shows how strong the evidence is.
- Ginkgo bilobaPreliminary or mixed
In the GEM trial, ginkgo extract did not reduce Alzheimer disease in adults aged 75 or older.
- Huperzine A and other herbal cholinesterase productsPreliminary or mixed
Trials in Alzheimer's disease gave mixed, low-quality results. A Cochrane review found the evidence inadequate to recommend use.
- PhosphatidylserinePreliminary or mixed
A pooled analysis saw a small gain for PS on one memory screening test but no supplement improved the second test. No source read shows PS prevents or treats the disease.
- Lion's manePreliminary or mixed
A 49-week pilot trial of erinacine A-enriched mycelium in mild Alzheimer's disease reported better scores on some scales; 14.3% dropped out. Pilot only; not a treatment.
- Multi-Ingredient Brain FormulasPreliminary or mixed
NCCIH finds no convincing benefit of omega-3 supplements and only mixed, small results for ginkgo. No blend was tested. Not a replacement for care.
