One of the most significant benefits of brain health supplements is that they can help improve cognitive function and memory. Some brain health supplements contain a number of nutrients that aid the brain.

According to Coherent Market Insights, the global brain health supplements market is estimated to account for 14,639.5 Mn in terms of value by the end of 2028.         

Ginkgo biloba and coenzyme Q10 are both popular, although they also contain caffeine, which can impair brain function. Using these supplements daily can help prevent dementia, improve mood and memory. There are several different supplements that can help improve the function of the brain. Some of the most popular are vitamins and minerals, which are beneficial for the brain. Those with cognitive problems should avoid taking vitamin E, which is a powerful antioxidant. While these supplements are beneficial for overall health, they are not effective for treating or preventing dementia.

Market Drivers

1.  Growing prevalence of mental disorders is expected to drive growth of the global brain health supplements market during the forecast period.

According to the World Economic Forum (WEF), 2019, around 275 million people across the globe suffer from anxiety disorders, of which 170 million are female sufferers while male sufferers account for 105 million. Moreover, according to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America (ADAA), anxiety disorder is the most common mental illness in the U.S., affecting around 40 million adults in the country.
