A few years ago (maybe as many as 8?) there was quite a bit of internet chat about a particular academic research group or lab testing supplement and exercise protocols to reverse age-related cognitive impairment. I would really like to find this again and also to see what the researchers are up to. I have, of course, lost the link. Can you help me find it?
The research wasn't:.
*Dementia specific e.g. it wasn't 'this will cure Alzheimer's', it was more about general age-related cognitive decline
*A stand-alone research article. I think?
*Scammy. Findings were presented as interesting/promising, but no snake-oil was being sold.
It might have:
*Had a research paper or papers associated with it which cited the case studies.
*A dot edu domain?
*Or it could have been a hospital-based research group?
*Been something I read on the blue, but searching for "cognitive impairment" and "dementia" has failed me so far.
It did:
*Have quite a few – 5-7?- case studies. I remember one in particular of a subject who, as well as the supplements, began cycling regularly. At the beginning of the study he was thinking about quitting work because his cognitive problems had become so dire. By the end of it he was back on top of his game and working productively full time. He had a professional job – maybe lawyer? Maybe finance?
*Explore a few different supplement and exercise combinations e.g Case Study #1 herbs A, B, C and vitamins D, E and F, with exercise type G; Case Study #2 Herb A, plus vitamins E and F, exercise type Q.
*Flag COQ10 and quercetin in the protocols, but also more obscure/hard to find supplements which I think they had compounded for test subjects to take.
*Come from a recognised, legitimate academic institution, but not a huge or especially prestigious one. That is to say, it came from a real university (or maybe research centre or hospital?) not internetscams.mlm.edu but not, for example, Harvard or the Mayo Clinic.
*Have a website that wasn't particularly polished design-wise. All the information was there, professional and easy to navigate, but no bells or whistles.
