Taking vitamin B12 and folic acid supplements may not reduce the risk
of memory and thinking problems after all, according to a study
published in the online edition of the journal Neurology.
The study is one of the largest to date to test long-term use of
supplements and thinking and memory skills. The study involved people
with high blood levels of homocysteine.
“Since homocysteine levels can be lowered with folic acid and vitamin
B12 supplements, the hope has been that taking these vitamins could
also reduce the risk of memory loss and Alzheimer’s disease,” said
Rosalie Dhonukshe-Rutten, PhD, Wageningen University, Wageningen, the
Netherlands.
