A study involving more than 2,000 older Japanese adults found a significant association between vitamin C levels and brain health. Participants with lower blood vitamin C concentrations showed reduced gray matter volume and weaker connectivity in brain networks important for memory and attention. These findings suggest vitamin C may play a role in supporting cognitive function during aging.
