MitoQ for frailty, walking, memory, and blood flow in older adults
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a supplement called MitoQ can improve blood vessel health, walking speed, and thinking skills in older adults who are frail or have mild memory problems. It aims to see if MitoQ helps maintain independence and quality of life.
