Abstract:
Many types of antioxidant supplements are available in the private market in Japan. However, it is difficult to know which type and how much to take, as it is possible to take too many of some vitamins. Since it is difficult for general consumers to make a choice, it is important to provide information based on scientific evidence. This study investigated the effects of continuous administration of a blended supplement, Twendee X (TwX) to aging mice. When 18-month-old C57BL/6 mice were given TwX for 1 month, behavioral tests showed that special cognition and short-term memory significantly improved compared to the age-matched controls. There were no significant differences in secreted neurotrophic factors, such as nerve growth factor and brain-derived neurotrophic factor in the brain. In treadmill durability tests before and after administration, the rate of increase in running distance after administration was significantly higher than that of the untreated group. These results suggest continuous intake of TwX may improve cognition and suppress age-related muscle decline. There is no problem with overdosing, so we think it's a good idea to take the blended supplement continuously.
