摘要：
Executive function was assayed following a nutritional supplementation in healthy adults using the Trail Making Test. Comparison with published normative scores demonstrated that cohorts from 35-74 years of age displayed similar relative improvement compared to their own baseline performance. These findings support early, pro-active lifestyle modifications to maintain cognitive performance during aging and further demonstrate the persistence of cognitive reserve in healthy older adults.
