"Promising Study Shows Herbal Extracts Enhance Mild Dementia Treatment"

A clinical trial conducted by Australian researchers found that an herbal extract called Sailuotong (SLT), containing standardized extracts of Panax ginseng, Ginkgo biloba, and Crocus sativus L., improved memory and executive function in individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in just 12 weeks. MCI is considered a precursor to dementia. The study suggests that SLT could potentially delay the onset of dementia and further research is needed to explore its long-term benefits. The herbal mixture has shown anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and cognitive-enhancing properties in previous studies. The researchers plan to conduct larger trials to investigate SLT's efficacy in treating MCI and delaying dementia.
