Vasoactive nutrients to promote healthy ageing in postmenopausal women

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Poor circulatory function in the brain, associated with mood and cognitive disturbances, can be further exacerbated by ageing and estrogen deprivation at postmenopause. My research will determine whether phytoestrogen supplementation with either resveratrol or genistein for 2 years can counteract menopause-related impairments in mood and mental performance by enhancing cerebral vasodilator function and whether the magnitude of improvement differs between early and late menopausal years.
