Brain health can be seen as the physical and structural health of the brain and its individual components, such as each neuron.
The degradation of physical brain health can increase as we age, which can lead to cognitive decline, memory loss or to a host of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s disease.
Verbal recall/fluency and memory seem to be strong indicators of brain health, and thus supporting these functions may support our brain health in the long term.
Nootropics – you may have heard of them.
They are somewhat of a trend right now and for good reason.
We have health supplements used to improve general health such as your multivitamins, essential minerals or anti-oxidants.
We have sports supplements to improve your physical performance which can include amino acids, pre-workout formulas and protein.
But now, there is a new, emerging category called Nootropics. These are supplements to improve and support your cognitive performance and brain health.
