Putting the brakes on mild cognitive impairment (MCI), a condition that often leads to Alzheimer’s disease, is a goal that has captured the attention of many researchers. One international team recently announced they had discovered that two supplements taken together can reduce MCI by half. 

What Is Mild Cognitive Impairment?

Mild cognitive impairment is a stage in which a person’s mental functioning is less than expected of normal aging and better than that associated with dementia. People with MCI typically experience some problems with thinking, judgment, memory, and language and are often aware they are having these challenges. However, these mental changes are not severe enough to disrupt usual activities and daily life. They also can experience depression, apathy, anxiety, and irritability.

A combination of fish oil supplements and B vitamins may help to improve thinking and memory.
