Probiotic supplement for mild memory loss
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether a probiotic (a supplement with helpful bacteria) can help slow down memory and thinking problems in people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). It is for adults aged 60–85 who have noticed their memory getting worse over time but can still handle daily activities.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests an oral supplement called gamma glutamylcysteine (GGC) in people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to see if it is safe and well-tolerated. It may help by supporting the body's natural defenses against cell damage.
This study tests whether guided exercises targeting memory, thinking skills, and daily habits can help people with mild cognitive impairment (early memory or thinking problems that don't severely impact daily life). You'll participate in a structured rehabilitation program designed to support brain health.
This trial tests whether a dietary supplement made from olive polyphenols, combined with following a Mediterranean diet, can help protect thinking and memory in people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). It may be a good fit if you have early memory changes and want to try a nutrition-based approach.
This study tests whether a healthy lifestyle program can help people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), which is slight memory and thinking decline. It focuses on diet, exercise, and other daily habits to see if they can slow down or improve memory issues.
This study tests whether taking a specific probiotic (a beneficial bacteria) can help improve memory and thinking in people with mild cognitive impairment who show signs of amyloid in the brain. If you qualify, you'll be randomly assigned to receive either the probiotic or a placebo (a dummy pill) to see if it helps.
This study tests whether daily probiotics (beneficial bacteria) can help people with mild Alzheimer's disease. It's an early-phase trial to see if probiotics are safe and might improve thinking and memory.
