New “super supplements” can boost memory and muscle strength, a study has revealed.
Blended antioxidant supplements were found to enhance spatial cognition, short-term memory, and muscle durability in aged mice.
The discovery could eventually lead to a breakthrough for those looking to combat age-related cognitive decline and muscle weakness.
Antioxidants, often found in both foods and supplements, can even mitigate the damaging effects of oxidative stress on the body.

The findings also offer hope for tackling Alzheimer’s disease and sarcopenia in humans.
However, further research is needed to confirm their efficacy and establish safe, effective dosages.
Professor Koji Fukui affiliated with the Shibaura Institute of Technology (SIT) and Dr Fukka You from Gifu University also found a blended mix of antioxidant supplements in aged mice significantly improves their spatial cognition, short-term memory, and muscle durability.
Professor Fukui said: “In this study, significant improvements were observed in the spatial learning ability and short-term memory in supplement-treated aged mice.

“Long term intake of blended antioxidant supplements may be effective, even considering the effects of aging and related increased oxidation in the body.”
He added: “Frailty and sarcopenia are now serious problems and potent risk factors for dementia.
“Although the mechanism is unknown, it is groundbreaking that taking supplements may be able to prevent muscle weakness.”
Antioxidant supplements are regularly available in the market.
There are many benefits of supplements PAHowever, determining the right supplements to buy can often be challenging for consumers.
It is also important to adopt the right regimen and future research on the individual differences in the effects of antioxidants can reduce confusion around the optimum dose and composition of antioxidant supplements.
Professor Fuki said: “In the future, there will come a time when we will provide multi-supplements tailored to each individual.
“There will be no need to worry about overdosing.”
