Cognitive stimulation therapy (CST) is currently one of the most effective non-pharmacological treatment approaches for mild to moderate dementia. Studies show that it can improve general thinking ability and possibly even positively influence functional and structural changes in the brain. Especially in combination with social interaction and everyday exercises, CST offers a promising addition to modern dementia care.
Recent meta-analyses show that low-dose lithium has comparable or even superior efficacy to modern anti-amyloid antibodies in Alzheimer's disease and mild cognitive impairment. Lithium has a multimodal neuroprotective effect, is well tolerated, inexpensive and could represent a promising option in Alzheimer's prevention and treatment.
Magnesium L-threonate is a special form of magnesium that can cross the blood-brain barrier much better than conventional magnesium compounds. This increases the magnesium level directly in the brain, which is crucial for memory, learning ability and neuronal regeneration. Studies suggest that this special magnesium compound can contribute to both the prevention and therapeutic support of dementia.
