Memory and cognitive function improvement method for elderly humans
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11918546B2) outlines a method for enhancing memory and cognitive function in healthy elderly individuals with a mini-mental state examination (MMSE) score of 27 or higher. The method involves administering a composition containing vitamin C, vitamin E, selenium, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and uridine or uridine monophosphate (UMP) in specific amounts. Selenium is to be given in a range of 0.01-0.5 mg per 100 g of the composition or per day, while vitamin C should be administered at 20 to 1000 mg per 100 g of the composition or per day, and vitamin E at 20 to 50 mg per 100 g of the composition or per day.
Furthermore, the patent includes variations in the composition, such as the addition of therapeutic levels of vitamin B6 and/or vitamin B12, along with specific dosages of DHA, ranging from at least 0.5 g to 5 g per 100 g of the composition or per day. The method also specifies the administration of vitamin C in amounts varying from 30 to 500 mg per 100 g of the composition or per day. Another aspect of the patent involves a similar method for enhancing memory and cognitive function in healthy elderly individuals with an MMSE score of 27 or higher, utilizing a composition containing vitamin C, vitamin E, selenium, DHA, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and uridine in specified amounts. The inclusion of therapeutic levels of vitamin B6 and/or vitamin B12, along with specific dosages of DHA and vitamin C, is also detailed in this variation of the method.
