Key Findings
- The study by Heilongjiang University of Chinese Medicine found that Qifu Yin (QFY) improved memory and cognitive function in mice with scopolamine-induced memory impairment
- Mice treated with high doses of QFY showed increased exercise time and reduced errors in memory tests, indicating enhanced cognitive abilities
- QFY treatment led to reduced oxidative stress, increased neuroprotective proteins, and restored gut microbiota balance, contributing to improved brain health
