Brain Aging Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Effect of Blueberry Consumption on Brain Health in Older Adults: in Vivo Measures of Cerebral Antioxidant and Cerebral Blood Flow
The purpose of this study is to determine if increased blueberry intake helps increase brain antioxidant (glutathione) and cerebral blood flow in older adults.
Consuming blueberries may improve brain health of older adults by increasing the antioxidant levels in the brain to protect nerve cells in the aging brain. Researchers think that there may be a relationship between the brain's antioxidant defense system and blueberry intake due to the high antioxidant content in blueberries. This study will investigate if blueberry intake may aid in enhancing glutathione levels and cerebral blood flow using special Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans. Participants will be asked to make a total of up to 4 visits to the research site. Participation will last about 3 months. ;
