Cognitive Processing

Meaning

The mental operations that the brain performs to acquire, store, retrieve, and manipulate information, encompassing essential functions such as attention, memory, executive function, and problem-solving. This complex neurological activity is fundamentally dependent on the efficient communication between billions of neurons and is highly sensitive to the balance of neurotransmitters and neuroactive hormones. Optimal hormonal health is intrinsically linked to sharp, effective cognitive processing throughout life.
