Brief Summary

The objective of this randomized, triple-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial is to compare NANO-PSO therapy against placebo in improving cognitive abilities in older adults with mild to moderate non-vascular cognitive impairment over six months of treatment. The primary questions it aims to answer are: • Does NANO-PSO therapy improve cognitive abilities in older adults with mild to moderate non-vascular cognitive impairment over six months of treatment compared to placebo? The researchers will compare NANO-PSO therapy against placebo to see if it benefits the cognitive abilities of geriatric patients. Participants will be required to: * Consume two capsules of NANO-PSO or placebo daily in the morning for six months. * Be evaluated monthly by phone to identify potential risks and ensure adherence to the treatment. * Be evaluated in person at 90 and 180 days of treatment. * The patient or primary caregiver must maintain a log to confirm daily dose consumption and will have a direct communication line with the attending physicians in case of questions about ingestion or possible adverse reactions. * At the end of the final patient evaluation, a quality questionnaire will be administered.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria: * Patients attended at the Hospital Español. * Patients of any gender who are 60 years or older. * Patients presenting with mild to moderate cognitive impairment. * Meet the diagnostic criteria for \"probable dementia\" of the National Institute on Aging and the Alzheimer's Association (NIA-AA) (2011). * Meet the criteria for the typical variant of Alzheimer's disease, specifically a specific clinical phenotype. * Progressive and gradual change in memory functions reported by the patient or the informant for at least 6 months. * Objective evidence of a hippocampal-type amnesic syndrome, based on significant impairment in the performance of episodic memory tests with established specificity for AD. * Subjects are primary and secondary school graduates and have the ability to complete cognitive capacity tests and other specified tests in the program. * Total score on the Hachinski Ischemic Scale (HIS) ≤ 4. * Patients who sign the informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: * Patients with known allergy to any component of the NANO-PSO capsule (e.g., fish). * Patients with short bowel syndrome, bariatric surgery, or gluten reaction that may affect intestinal absorption. * Patients in palliative care with a life expectancy of less than 6 months according to the NECPAL scale. * Patients with terminality criteria established in the comprehensive palliative care management guide of Mexico.
