Summary

When completing difficult tasks, the brain requires faster delivery of energy sources (oxygen and glucose) via the blood. There is evidence to suggest that some nutritional supplements may increase blood circulation in the brain which can result in improved task performance. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effects of a multivitamin/mineral preparation (containing a range of vitamins and minerals as contained in commonly consumed multivitamin/minerals available off the shelf) in healthy females on cerebral (brain) blood flow and energy expenditure during cognitive task performance.
