Two-dose nasal spray could improve memory — and reverse brain aging
Researchers have developed a two-dose nasal spray that may reverse brain aging and improve cognitive function. The therapy significantly reduced brain inflammation and restored energy to brain cells in mice, leading to better memory performance. This innovative treatment could potentially replace invasive procedures and aid in recovery from neurodegenerative conditions.
- ▪The nasal spray showed improvements in cognitive function after just two doses.
- ▪It dramatically reduced brain inflammation and restored cellular energy in mice.
- ▪The treatment could have broader applications for conditions like dementia and stroke recovery.

Add The New York Post on Google One spray could turn back the clock. Scientists have developed a therapy that they say could reverse brain aging, restoring memory and focus that’s typically lost over time. And just two doses showed improvements in cognitive function — a notable result, as new dementia cases are projected to double over the next four decades, reaching about 1 million in 2060. A new therapy in an easy-to-use nasal spray has been developed to reverse brain aging, improving memory and focus.
