“…In post-menopausal women, a decline was observed in the efficacy of cognitive functions, which fall below the average for the general population. It was confirmed that women obtained the worst results with respect to the speed of processing, cognitive plasticity, and executive functions, whereas the best results were with respect to verbal memory and visual memory [11]. The theory of these changes that is most frequently considered is a rapid decline in sex hormones after menopause, and in consequence, the deterioration of cognitive functions.…”

Introduction: The objective of the study was the development of models of cognitive functions in a group of post-menopausal women, according to the concentration of the selected laboratory parameters evaluating the functional state of the thyroid gland. Material and methods:The study was conducted during 2012-2014, and covered women aged 50-65 years, minimum two years after the last menstruation, without chronic diseases, cancerous diseases, mental disorders, addiction to drugs or alcohol, and who did not use hormone replacement therapy. At the stage of qualification, a brief MoCA test was performed; 383 women were qualified for the study. Blood was collected for the determination of such parameters as: TSH, TT4, fT4, anti-TPO, anti-Tg, and AB-TSHR. Assessment of cognitive functions was performed using the diagnostic instrument Central Nervous System -Vital Signs (CNS-VS) (Polish version). The results were statistically analysed.

“…Intake data for elderly Irish individuals showed a similar pattern (40). Among older Polish adults 44% had deficits in zinc, and a small study of Polish postmenopausal women found that nearly 70% of the women had inadequate intakes (36). Among elderly Indian adults (mostly vegetarians), only 39% of the males and 26% of the females had adequate zinc intakes (37,41).…”

“…Yet, there are minerals for which intake by elderly individuals may be low. This was shown in a small Polish cohort of postmenopausal women (36), and in India, where only 59% of male and 43% of female elderly individuals, mostly vegetarians, had adequate intakes of iron (37). Further, iron absorption studies on Indian diets have shown that a much smaller portion of iron is available from a mixed cereal-pulse vegetarian diet.…”

“…For young adults in Poland, magnesium intakes from food were below recommended levels (47), and nearly 70% of postmenopausal women had inadequate intake levels (36). Low intake levels were also found among elderly adults in Ireland (40) and free-living elderly adults in Spain (mean age ~79 years) (39).…”

Introduction:Identifying nutrition-and modifiable lifestyle-based risk factors for cognitive decline and dementia may contribute future primary prevention strategies. This study aimed to evaluate the associations between magnesium intake and cognition in older adults in the United States.Methods: Based on the National Health and Nutrition Survey (NHANES) between 2011 and 2014, the study included 2508 participants aged 60 years and older. Linear regression models were used to examine the association of total magnesium intake with cognition.Results: After adjusted demographic and other confounding factors, intakes of energy and total calcium, and serum vitamin D level, higher intake of total magnesium was independently associated with 0.15 higher global cognitive z-score (95% confidence interval, 0.02 to 0.28 for highest vs. lowest quartile, P trend = .037). The positive association of total magnesium intake with global cognition was primarily presented among women, non-Hispanic Whites, and those with sufficient serum vitamin D levels (≥50 nmol/L), although interactions were not significant. There were no clear linear associations for global cognition with serum vitamin D level.Discussions: Our findings suggest that high magnesium intake alone may improve cognition in older adults, particularly among non-Hispanic Whites and subjects with sufficient levels of serum vitamin D. Further studies are needed to confirm the findings.
