Cognitive Health Study

ENROLLMENT COMPLETE

About The Study

Are you interested in contributing to research on cognitive well-being? Join our exciting study to better understand the impact of a new supplement, Hericium erinaceus, on cognitive health in healthy adults 40 years or older. Previous research has shown that Hericium erinaceus taken regularly can improve mood, help people perform tasks faster, and reduce feelings of stress in healthy adults. Studies also found that it can boost memory and prevent it from worsening over time. In this study, our goal is to collect data related to your memory, attention, focus, mood, motivation, stress and sleep before and after taking the product. All study activities can be done from the comfort of your home. 

After signing up, you will take a short online questionnaire to find out whether you qualify for the study. After qualification, you will complete brief online surveys about your medical history and medications. During the study, you will answer daily online surveys, complete cognitive tests and brain games while taking the study product. The data you provide will be made anonymous, and the analyzed results will be shared with you and the research scientists.
