Daily Multi-Vitamin May Improve Memory and Slow Cognitive Aging

A third major study, published by Massachusetts General Hospital Brigham in Jan. 2024, confirms daily multi-vitamins may offer significant help with memory loss and delay cognitive aging in older adults. The research study results could have major implications for millions of Americans at risk for dementia and Alzheimer's disease. 


The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition researchers observed and tested a total of about 5,000 adults 60 and older, in 3 different major studies. 

Study participants taking multi-vitamins displayed memory retention equivalent to someone nearly 5 years younger and had cognitive abilities related to acquiring knowledge and understanding, equivalent to someone 2 years younger. Significant benefits were also seen in episodic memory, the capacity to recall a memory while blocking out distractions and focusing on a task.  

“Cognitive decline is among the top health concerns for most older adults, and a daily supplement of multivitamins has the potential as an appealing and accessible approach to slow cognitive aging,” said first author Chirag Vyas, MBBS, MPH, instructor in investigation at the Department of Psychiatry at Massachusetts General Hospital, a founding member of the Mass General Brigham healthcare system. 

There are currently an estimated 6.7 million people in the U.S. living with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias, a number that is expected to rise to 14 million by 2060, according to the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention. 

Previous research has also shown the risk of dementia can also be slowed by maintaining a healthy lifestyle, controlling high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity and depression. Also, refraining from binge drinking and smoking, and getting plenty of physical exercise, may also improve brain health. 

Atlanta Colonic & Massage Spa offers a variety of nutritional supplements including Biometics products which can help with mental focus, energy, digestion and much more. 

Biometics uses a unique process called Bio-cellular Micellization, which re- formulates the liquid nutrients to become so small they can pass through a styrofoam cup. This increases the body’s absorption up to 500% to help ensure that we are getting the maximum nutrition possible. 

Bio Fuel is a liquid multi-vitamin that provides 100% of the U.S. Daily Values of many essential vitamins, minerals and antioxidants including Grape Seed Extract, Green Tea Extract, and Ginkgo Biloba Extract. These important botanical antioxidants help the body fight cell damaging free radicals as well as giving you extra energy.  

We often find ourselves taking a handful of supplements …but never really know if we are getting their full benefit. That can stop today!

Colorectal Cancer Deaths on the Rise Among Young Adults

The American Cancer Society recently released its Cancer Statistics 2024 report showing that while overall US cancer deaths continue to decline, some specific cancers like colorectal cancer have rapidly shifted, mortality patterns in adults younger than 50. In the late 1990s, colorectal cancer was the 4th leading cause of cancer-related death for people younger than 50. Now it’s the leading cause of cancer in men under 50, the 2nd leading cause in women and the 2nd leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. The cancer trend is particularly pronounced in developed regions, such as North America, Australia and Western Europe. Yale Medicine doctor warns those as young as 20 should be aware of cancer warning signs. The increase in cancers among younger people is still a bit of a medical mystery. It’s urgent that we better understand these changes in death rates, as well as related changes in cancer diagnoses. Most people in their 20s, 30s or 40s don’t think about being diagnosed with colorectal cancer. The truth is that colorectal cancer has been on the rise in young adults for years. Yale Medical surgeons urge those younger than 45 to talk to their doctors about any suspicious symptoms, such as frequent diarrhea or constipation, stomach pain, cramps, and/or bloating, rectal bleeding, bloody stool, fatigue, unexplained weight loss or continued feeling as though the bowels are not empty. About 15 years ago, Yale Medicine surgeon Vikram Reddy, MD, PhD, conducted one of the first studies identifying the rising incidence of colorectal cancer among young people. “We’re still seeing the trend, so it wasn’t temporary,” says Dr. Reddy. In a single week the practice reported seven patients between 18 and 35 years old, diagnosed with rectal cancer. Even though if caught early, colorectal cancer is often highly treatable, the diagnosis can still be a significant health challenge for Gen Z, Millennials, and Gen X. A cancer diagnosis can interrupt careers, impact personal finances and force unexpected critical decisions such as preserving sperm or eggs in case treatment impacts fertility. Why the Uptick? Researches are still not sure why colorectal cancer numbers are rising in young people.. “Increasing colorectal cancer incidence in people born after the 1950s for reasons that are currently under investigation by many researchers but may include increased obesity, changes in diet and/or the gut microbiome including highly processed food consumption, a more sedentary lifestyle, overuse of antibiotics, and even gut exposure to microplastics, etc.,” Siegal told Medical News Today. A family history of colorectal cancer, polyps, and inflammatory bowel disease are also risk factors. Up to one third of those diagnosed with cancer before age 50 have a family history or genetic predisposition. Those with these pre-dispositions should begin screening at 45 years of age.  Between the 1960s to early 2010s, alcohol consumption increased in many countries. A recent study found moderate alcohol consumption increased the risk of cancer in women. "We're finding that probably anywhere between 5% to 10% of all cancers worldwide are due to alcohol use," Dr. Suneel Kamath, a GI clinical oncologist at Cleveland Clinic Cancer Center, told "Good Morning America". “The rise in colorectal cancer in people under 50 is the same in men and women, strongly suggesting the cause is not hormonal or endogenous, but due to external environmental or behavioral changes,” she added. Dr. Anton Bilchik, surgical oncologist, Chief of Medicine, and director of the Gastrointestinal and Hepatobiliary Program at Saint John’s Cancer Institute in Santa Monica, CA, who was not involved in this study, said another theory for this rise in colon cancer deaths might be inflammation. “Inflammation has been shown to result in an increase in cardiovascular disease, as well as cancer,” Dr. Bilchik told MNT. “The concern is that a lot of this starts at a very young age and that education needs to start really at preschool in terms of what kids are eating and the importance of not living a sedentary lifestyle,” he added. How can I help protect myself from colon cancer?  When it comes to protecting yourself from colon cancer by actively discuss family history with your primary care physician, don’t ignore changes in bowel habits or anal bleeding and start getting screened at age 45. Dr. Bilchik provided these basic tips for defending against colorectal cancer: • Exercise at least five days a week for 30 to 40 minutes at a time • Avoid or stop smoking • Avoid processed food as much as possible • Limit red meat, as previous research Trusted Source shows that too much red meat is associated with colon cancer • Don’t ignore symptoms such as rectal bleeding, stomach pain, and unexplained weight loss • When you go to a grocery store, shop the outside, where fruits, vegetables, and healthier foods are located, rather than the inside, where a lot of processed foods can be found Probiotics have been shown to have beneficial effects on human health, including antibacterial activity against intestinal pathogens, regulating blood cholesterol levels, reducing the incidence of colitis and inflammation, regulating the immune system, and preventing colon cancer . Don’t hesitate, call now!
