CognitiveEnhancement

Meaning

Cognitive enhancement refers to the improvement or augmentation of core mental functions such as executive function, memory, attention, creativity, or motivation, often through pharmacological, nutritional, or technological interventions. Within the hormonal health domain, this frequently involves optimizing endocrine balance, as hormones like thyroid, testosterone, and estrogen significantly modulate neurochemistry and brain plasticity. The goal is to elevate mental performance beyond typical baseline levels, particularly in the context of age-related decline or sub-optimal function. It represents a proactive approach to maintaining neurological vitality and intellectual capacity.
