Brief Summary
Cognitive decline is a common symptom of aging, and age-related cognitive impairments are considered normal or inevitable, especially in people over 60, whose memory is more likely to be affected by age. As life expectancy has increased, the number of people with age-related cognitive impairment has also increased. The improvement or slowing of cognitive impairment has received more attention. Phosphatide is a naturally occurring Phosphatide, but it is the main acidic phospholipid in the brain. Phosphatidylserine (PS) is a phospholipid that regulates the function of key proteins in cell membranes and can improve brain function and repair brain damage. PS is thought to enhance neuronal membrane function, which in turn enhances cognitive function. However, there are few studies on the effect of PS on human cognitive function, especially on the elderly, and the results are inconsistent. In this study, people aged 60-70 were given PS intervention for 6 months. Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA) and Mini-Mental State Examination.MMSE) and head MRI are used to evaluate the cognitive function of the subjects before and after the intervention to observe the influence of PS on the cognitive function of the elderly, which is of certain significance for the accurate assessment of the cognitive function of the elderly population and the improvement of the cognitive function of the elderly.
