Do You Need a Multivitamin? What Science Says About Brain Health and Memory

Alright guys, so let's get started with our discussions today in the first one. We're gonna touch on This is a great piece again from wellness resources. Of course. We were just talking about them got a great article this is do you need a multivitamin what science says about brain health and Memory, so this was a great study that they did on this. So we'll dive right into it This is from the American Journal of clinical nutrition It was recently published results of the Cosmos study with randomized clinical trial and meta-analysis on multivitamin mineral supplements and cognitive health now, of course the the meta-analysis we know is when they gather all the All the studies together and they find a common denominator in between them, right? So this was a two-year in-depth study that evaluated the effects of taking a multivitamin multimineral supplement Versus a placebo and they were looking at how it affected overall cognitive health and memory in adults aged 60 and older So let's check out what they found the researchers found that taking a daily multivitamin Made a noticeable improvement in memory over two years, especially for remembering specific Events which is called episodic memory, by the way They also found that daily multivitamins helped improve overall brain function and memory These results suggest that taking a multiple vitamin every day can help can help maintain memory and support brain health in older Adults and this is important because we know that the brain is the most energy Demanding organ in the body, right? It demands a tremendous amount of energy at the tremendous amount of ATP, but it's also the command-and-control center, right? So you need the brain to be functionally, you know functioning optimally every single day of your life Okay, you know again, you got to keep your memory sharp. You got to be able to learn new things You got to be able to process information you got to remember, you know be able to remember important details and so forth and the only way you're gonna be able to do You know is to have make sure that your brain is working in tip-top shape and one of the great ways to do that is With a multivitamin, which is high quality, right? So Great stuff on this brand new information on this. This is great. Of course, you know, we have the skepticals out You know skeptics out there for skeptical Who are always saying and you hear a lot of talking heads out there saying that you know or mainstream medicals says it too You don't need a multivitamin you don't need to waste your money on that it's expensive urine all that type of stuff, right? They all say you can get all your nutrition from food. Well, the studies just doesn't they don't suggest that okay They don't they don't show that and I've talked about that on this show I've actually shown proof that the selenium and the magnesium and the calcium and all the Stores in our soils are depleted you're talking about everywhere between 25 to 35 percent of depletion in the sauce And that means that we're not getting what we need remember Minerals are made in nature. They're made in the soils You've got to take those minerals and that's the only way you can get them if you're not getting you know If you're losing 25% of them just in your diet alone, even if you have a perfect diet You're not gonna get exactly what you need So that again this is why I recommend at least a multivitamin to give you that gap between what your body needs and what? You are eating this way. It gives you this insurance policy To make sure that you're getting all the nutrition that you need because at the end of the day, it's the raw materials It's the raw materials that help you to help run your metabolism that make sure things work in your body That's what nutrition is. It helps run your metabolism and helps your body do what it needs to do every single day So that's why it's extremely important to make sure you're getting this these things have to go down the hatch every single day. Okay, so Obviously what can impede this not only the soils but also restrictive diets, right, you know Even plant-based diets as great as they are and I acknowledge plant-based diets are great You also have to make sure okay that you're getting the nutrition that is absolutely needed now other things that can wreak havoc on your nutrition status as well is Like things like obesity for example obesity, you know weight loss bariatric surgery Drug nutrient depletions. That's a big one because so many people are on medications Everything from high stress to genetics to poor gut health even celiac disease okay, all these things can be a challenge to make sure that your body gets the Absolute nutrition that it needs and it can cause deficiencies and therefore cause all different types of metabolic problems So some of the things to take a look at as far as you know good nutrition or as far as multivitamins, obviously if you have a multivitamin that you're happy with and Makes you feel good continue to take that multivitamin I'm a big proponent of not changing something if it's working for you Now if you are looking for some great multivitamins, let's say you're just getting started Obviously if you come to me I'm gonna recommend the ones that I've used and the ones that I know work very very well Of course wellness resources is one of them. You can take a look at their daily energy multivitamin Their daily prenatal vitamin if you're pregnant or you know looking to get pregnant the super mini multi Is great for the kids But you also have things like daily builder and daily bone Excel which you can add to those Multivitamins to get that extra nutrition on top of that to help with bones and joints and other types of things So again many options there as far as good supplements, you can also take a look at vibrant health if you want to look at something more on the food side of things or if you want a food for multivitamin because They have a combination of green powders. They have the green vibrance powders, which are great You can get them in chocolate or on the green, you know, the green flavor or whichever flavor you like But they also have a great product called trilogy, which is a three-in-one. It's actually a multivitamin It's also a probiotic and it's also a fish oil at the same time in omega-3 So it's one of the only products I know that actually has all that. So again, that's from vibrant health That's trilogy But again many many options here as far as making sure you get some good quality nutrition good multivitamins you but at the end of the Day, that's what you need. Okay Again, look at multivitamins now.
