Cognitive health thetic nervous system. A similar system is also used for a lie detector test. The significant decrease in conductivity at 1290 mg cognitaven ® supplementation therefore indicates the test subjects’ unconscious relaxation. This is the very first time that it was possible to measure and demonstrate a scientifically based response to stress related to green oat intake. Conclusion three different criteria. For this purpose, the test subjects were led in a room and had to face an interview situation in front of a jury. Latter ones then requested the study participant to count backwards loudly in steps of 3, 7, or 17 from a given initial number between 800 and 999. Both the correctness of the results and the speed of the calculations were considered. In parallel to this first task, the subjects should track a fast moving object on a screen with the computer mouse. Here, the precision was measured based on the resulting distance from the cursor to the moving object. Based on these three aspects, it could be demonstrated that cognitaven ® significantly enhanced multitasking ability. Already at the acute ingestion on day 1 as well as after chronic supplementation, subjects that consumed the highest or the lowest dosage for 29 days displayed a significant improvement, especially in the second task (object tracking). But also subjects that received 860 mg cognitaven ® showed a positive trend on the subtraction correctness and the object tracking in comparison to the placebo group after the acute intake. It is easy to understand that this experimental setup will not just challenge the multitasking demands but can also cause stress in the test subjects. The study also examined this parameter. Even though the extract did not influence classic stress markers such as cortisol or alpha-amylase in saliva, skin conductivity, also known as galvanic skin response, changed favourably. The principle of the test is based on psychophysiological changes, where through emotions or stress alterations in skin conductivity are evoked. These changes occur due to sweat secretion triggered by the sympa- For more information, please contact Dr. Stefanie Lang Research Manager Anklam Extrakt GmbH stefanie.lang@anklam-extrakt.com www.anklam-extrakt.com Photo © : Adobestock/Jelena Finally, it can be summarised that cognitaven ® contributes to substantial improvements in the area of multitasking and evokes positive effects in the working memory sector. Furthermore, the results of the study indicate an influence of cognitaven ® in the relaxation area. Thus, cognitaven ® can be used as a natural solution ingredient for finished products that aim to increase cognitive performance, mental fitness, and for better coping with stress.
