Longvida® latest study: brain function improvements just 1 hour after treatment
The winning research of the year (Nutraingredients Awards, 2015) “Effect of curcumin on cognitive function and mood in healthy older humans” (Swinburne University, 2014) indicated that, just one hour after treatment with a single 400mg dose of Longvida, healthy older participants showed superior performance over placebo on validated tasks relating to attention and working memory. In addition, a 30-day supplementation improved measures of calmness, contentedness and fatigue versus placebo. The study included 60 participants, and no dropouts or side effects were reported.
Furthermore, the authors suggested a possible mechanism by which the effects of Longvida to support energy were observed in less than one hour.
Recommended daily dosage:
200mg – 500mg according to application (400mg clinical dose).
