Research is showing that age-associated memory impairment is a result of changes or abnormalities in the fat composition of the brain. Our brains and cells need healthy fats to function. One particular type of fat has the spotlight when it comes to memory support – phosphatidylserine. This nutrient is a phospholipid, fats that play an integral role in cell membrane function and structure.
