Summary

The purpose of this investigation is to conduct a series of case studies on the impact of a novel functional medicine approach to improving cognitive skills, brain structure, and daily functioning for participants with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI).

Detailed description

Using a multiple baseline design across cases with start point randomization, the proposed study will examine the outcomes from a combination of optimized diet, exercise, nutritional supplements, and cognitive training across domains on standardized measures used to monitor treatment effectiveness for Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI).

Conditions

• Mild Cognitive Impairment

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
BEHAVIORAL	Cognitive training	A clinician will deliver three 90-minute cognitive training sessions per week for 14 weeks. There are 16 different categories of leveled training procedures sequenced in intensity and difficulty for a total of 530 training tasks.
