COGNITIVE DECLINE IS NOT INEVITABLE WITH AGE. DOCTORS NOW SAY A LACK OF NUTRITION PLAYS A BIG ROLE IN BRAIN IMPAIRMENT. FROM MILD MEMORY LOSS TO SEVERELY DEBILITATING CONDITIONS SUCH AS ALZHEIMER'S DOCTORS NOW BELIEVE COGNITIVE DECLINE MAY BE CAUSED BY A DEFICIENCY IN FOLIC ACID AND VITAMIN B-12. THE AMERICAN JOURNAL OF CLINICAL NUTRITION REPORTS ON A SCOTTISH STUDY WHERE ELDERLY PEOPLE WITH LOW LEVELS OF FOLIC ACID HAD LOWER COGNITIVE TEST SCORES, WHILE THOSE WITH HIGHER FOLATE CONCENTRATIONS HAD HIGHER SCORES ON ASSESSMENT TESTS OVER THE 2 YEAR STUDY PERIOD.
