A natural antioxidant formula (NAF) composed of several beneficial compounds was given to rats in this study, who were also induced with lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced cognitive dysfunction. The NAF decreased inflammation in the brain and increased the number of neural progenitor cells, ultimately ameliorating the detrimental effects on neurogenesis and fear memory caused by LPS-induced inflammation. These findings suggest that NAF could be utilized to prevent neuroinflammation, which is thought to contribute to cognitive dysfunction.
