Long-Term Beta Carotene Supplementation Helps Prevent Cognitive Decline

Men who take beta carotene supplements for 15 years or longer may have less cognitive decline. Decreases in cognitive ability—thinking, learning and memory skills—strongly predict dementia, a growing public health issue.

“In this generally healthy population, the extent of protection conferred by long-term treatment appeared modest; nonetheless, studies have established that very modest differences in cognition, especially verbal memory, predict substantial differences in eventual risk of dementia; thus, the public health impact of long-term beta carotene use could be large,” the authors write.

Read details on this beta carotene cognitive decline study.
