The brain naturally undergoes gradual structural and functional changes as we age, even in the absence of neurodegenerative diseases. Shrinking brain volume begins after age 25 when brain growth peaks. Research suggests this shrinkage equates to roughly 5% per decade after 40 years of age, which accelerates to an even greater degree after age 70. As the brain ages, it loses efficiency due to loss of neurons and reduced synaptic density and plasticity. The result is declining cognitive function over time. Cognitive health covers a range of conditions including memory loss, stress or anxiety management, dementia, Alzheimer’s, phobias, sleep disorders and others. All of these are controlled by the health of the brain which Magtein [Magnesium L-Threonate] can help.*
