A Vitamin a Day may Keep the Doctor Away

Want to slow memory loss after 60? A multivitamin may be the answer.

A group taking a multivitamin was two years younger in memory function than a group taking a placebo, research shows

It is the third in a series of studies assessing the cognitive effects of a daily multivitamin on older adults. And a systematic review, or meta-analysis, of the three studies accompanying the most recent paper said their cumulative results were similar: The group taking a multivitamin was two years younger in memory function compared with the group taking a placebo.

And don’t forget exercising and keeping your mind busy by reading and doing puzzles. If you are retired and watching cable TV and Fox News all day, doubt balanced meals or vitamins are going to help.
