Flavanol consumption improves hippocampal memory function associated with cognitive aging PNASNews Columbia flavanol hippocampal memory function cognative aging
By Dr. Chinta SidharthanJun 5 2023Reviewed by Lily Ramsey, LLM In a recent study published in the PNAS Journal, researchers investigated the impact of dietary flavanols on the cognitive aging component associated with hippocampal-dependent memory and the link between habitual diet quality and the memory benefits of flavanols.
Research indicates that diet quality, habitual diet patterns, and specific diet components could have etiological links to cognitive aging. Related StoriesThe ancillary study COSMOS-Web examined flavanol supplementation's impact on hippocampal-dependent memory. The prespecified primary outcome of COSMOS-Web was the Modified Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test test performance, followed by one year of intervention.
The participants are then asked to recall the words immediately and 20 minutes after the list has been presented. In contrast, the Flanker test measures executive control.
