A recent study suggests, getting more anthocyanins (a flavonoid antioxidant) can prevent a cognitive decline.

Anthocyanins are plant flavonoids abundantly found in red, blue and purple, fruit, fruits, vegetable, vegetables, and flowers.

Anthocyanins significantly improve cognition, specifically processing and reasoning, attention, and verbal speed in fluency as well as working memory.

The study concluded that eating more anthocyanin-rich foods or supplements was associated with better cognitive function and slower cognitive decline..

This study, released in 2025, showed that people who developed and suffered from migraines, had lower dietary levels of all seven nutrients: B1, B2, B3, B6, B12 and folate.

This study suggests that getting more of these nutrients, perhaps especially magnesium, and, most importantly, B3 and B12 may help prevent migraine headaches.

Did you know adding lemon juice to your watermelon gives it a whole other taste?

It also boosts vitamin C, helping your immune system and skin.

The acid from the citrus can help kickstart digestive juices as well.

Sport and exercise are important. But strenuous exercise can damage and even injure your muscles. Muscle regeneration can be a slow process. New research is suggesting that a duo of B vitamins can speed it up.

After muscle damage, muscle regeneration is driven by muscle stem cells.

I just published double blind, place-controlled study asked 39 men with an average age of 26.7 years to do a single session of damaging high intensity, muscle contractions.

It then gave them either a placebo or 714mg of B3 in the form of niacinamide and 19mg of B6 for 9 days.

The B vitamins was significantly more effective than placebo. Muscle stem cells were 29% higher, and regenerating muscle fibres were 37% higher. The B vitamins were safe and caused no adverse events.

There are no conventional treatments that specifically target muscle stem cells for promoting muscle repair and recovery. But this study shows that a combination of B3 and B6 enhance his muscle, stem cells and accelerates muscle regeneration and repair.
