Sunshine vitamin fights 'mental decline'

[Adam777]

Interesting... Vitamin D is reported to play a critical role in keeping the brain in a good condition and prevent mental decline in old age.

According to a study published in the Journal of Neurology Neurosurgery and Psychiatry, high levels of vitamin D slow down the ageing process in the brain, preventing dementia and memory loss commonly experienced in old age.

Vitamins are important for general cell functioning so it's not surprising when you think about it that they're important for brain cells too.

Vitamin D3 and B12 seem to be especially important in this regard.
