Could a common brain supplement slow Alzheimer's by improving sleep?

NCT ID NCT06029894

Summary

This study tested whether a dietary supplement called citicoline could improve sleep and affect biological markers linked to Alzheimer's disease. It involved 100 older adults who had mild cognitive impairment (early memory problems) and poor sleep. Participants were randomly assigned to take either citicoline or a placebo for three months while researchers tracked their sleep quality and measured Alzheimer's-related proteins in their blood or spinal fluid.
