Thorne’s PS is made from an ingredient derived from soy, so skip it if you react to soy. And it is not a fix for dementia or for memory that is clearly getting worse; changes like that belong with your doctor, who can look for causes a capsule will never touch.</p></div><div class="plan" id="coach-recommendations"><div class="pt">📋 Your Coach’s Recommendations</div><div class="step"><div class="n">1</div><div><div class="sh">Do the free brain basics first.</div><div class="sd">Sleep, regular exercise, and blood-pressure control have the strongest evidence for memory.

A <a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11842880/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">randomized trial</a> of the soy-derived form found no benefit for memory in older adults, while some earlier studies were more positive. Treat it as a maybe, not a sure thing.</div></details><details><summary>How much should I take, and for how long?</summary><div class="a">The cognition studies generally used 300 mg a day. At Thorne’s 100 mg per capsule, that is three capsules daily. Give it a few weeks and judge it honestly on focus and recall.</div></details><details><summary>Is it safe?</summary><div class="a">Soy and sunflower PS have a good safety record at these doses, but supplements are loosely regulated, so the <a href="https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/WYNTK-Consumer/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NIH advises</a> choosing third-party-tested brands and telling your doctor what you take.</div></details><details><summary>Can it prevent dementia?</summary><div class="a">No. It is not a treatment for dementia, and worsening memory is a reason to see a doctor. The <a href="https://www.nia.nih.gov/health/brain-health/cognitive-health-and-older-adults" target="_blank" rel="noopener">National Institute on Aging</a> stresses that lifestyle, not supplements, has the strongest evidence for protecting memory.</div></details></div><div class="src-list"><h3>Sources</h3><ul><li><a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25933483/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Phosphatidylserine and the human brain, review, Nutrition 2015 (PubMed)</a></li><li><a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11842880/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Soy-derived phosphatidylserine and cognition in age-associated memory impairment, randomized trial (PubMed)</a></li><li><a href="https://www.nia.nih.gov/health/brain-health/cognitive-health-and-older-adults" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NIH National Institute on Aging: Cognitive Health and Older Adults</a></li><li><a href="https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/WYNTK-Consumer/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NIH Office of Dietary Supplements: Dietary Supplements, What You Need to Know</a></li><li><a href="https://medlineplus.gov/memory.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MedlinePlus: Memory</a></li><li><a href="https://www.thorne.com/products/dp/iso-phos-reg" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Thorne: Phosphatidylserine (specifications and price, fetched live at build)</a></li></ul></div><div class="ac-sig"><div class="rule"></div><p class="toyour">To your health,</p><svg width="320" height="72" viewBox="0 0 320 72" role="img" aria-label="Ageless Coach.
