Improving cognitive impairment through chronic consumption of natural compounds/extracts: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials by Long Ngo Hoang, Haesung Lee, Sook Jeong Lee

“…Additionally, a suggestive trend toward improvement in MMSE scores was observed in a subgroup analysis of 1,717 participants (pooled standardized mean difference = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.06 to 1.46, t18 = 2.27, p = 0.04).ConclusionThese findings support the potential cognitive benefits of extended (≥6 weeks) supplementation with natural compounds or extracts in individuals with MCI or AD. Further research is warranted to confirm these results and elucidate the underlying mechanisms.Systematic review registrationhttps://www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO/.…”
