A new study published in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease builds on existing research proving the functional benefits of carotenoids, omega-3 fatty acids, and vitamin E in Alzheimer’s disease patients.
Memory Health, based in Birmingham, is the only supplement patented for the prevention and/or treatment of neurodegenerative disease.
The study, led by Drs. John Nolan and Rebecca Power of Nutrition Research Centre Ireland — in conjunction with researchers from the Howard Foundation, University Hospital Waterford, and the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland — showed the benefits of Memory Health in patients with mild-moderate Alzheimer’s disease.
The study utilized the Memory Health supplement to test the product’s formula comprised of ω-3FAs (omega-3 fatty acids), carotenoids (lutein, meso-zeaxanthin, zeaxanthin) and vitamin E regarding the impact of these micronutrients on the natural progression of Alzheimer’s disease in a randomized controlled trial.
Following 12 months, the active group compared to the placebo group demonstrated “statistically significant improvements” in skin carotenoid measurements, blood carotenoids, ω-3FAs, and vitamin E concentrations. The active group also performed better in objective measures of Alzheimer’s disease severity, such as memory and mood, with a statistically significant difference reported in the clinical collateral for memory.
The researchers concluded that Memory Health’s combined micronutrient dietary supplement should be considered in the overall management of Alzheimer’s Disease, given the positive outcomes demonstrated in the trial.

“Once again, these findings underscore the importance of nutritional supplementation in improving brain health,” says Edward Shehab, managing partner at Memory Health. “Memory Health’s formula is backed by real science and that continues to be validated in studies and trials like this one.”
These recent study supports the numerous other studies that have been conducted on Memory Health over the past 20 years, all of which have demonstrated the supplement to improve brain health and cognitive function across the board.
