Vitamin B-12

Vitamin B-12

Vitamin B12 deficiency and dementia.

Researchers have long been interested in the potential connection between vitamin B12 deficiency and dementia.
   
In 142 individuals considered at risk for dementia, researchers found that a daily supplement providing 2 milligrams (mg) folic acid and 1 mg vitamin B12, taken for 12 weeks, lowered homocysteine levels by 30%. They also demonstrated that cognitive impairment was significantly associated with elevated plasma total homocysteine.

However, the decrease in homocysteine levels seen with the use of vitamin supplements did not improve cognition. It is too soon to make any recommendations, but is an intriguing area of research.

The Above Information Found At Office of Dietary Supplements • National Institutes of Health.
