NCT03612752

Brief Summary

The investigators propose to conduct the present study in order to primarily assess the effects of CMI-168 in neurocognition enhancement. Studies have shown that episodic memory performance is declined in elder populations showing elevated cortisol levels and cognitive decline is accelerated with greater levels of self-reporting perceived stress . Additionally, stress-related disorders such as depression and anxiety adversely affect and impair cognitive function. Given the significant role of chronic stress, sleep, depression and anxiety in impairing memory and learning performance, questionnaires used to measure the following parameters of stress (Perceived Stress Scale, PSS), sleep (Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index, PSQI), anxiety (State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, STAI) and depression (Beck Depression Inventory, BDI) have been incorporated into this study design. Additionally, levels of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF), a protein involved in neuronal survival and synaptic plasticity of the central and peripheral nervous system, have been reported to be significantly different in patients with depression or neurological disorders . The investigators will also examine the physiological levels of cortisol and BDNF in these subjects to determine their effect of CMI-168 supplementation on these measures, as well as the implications on cognition.
