Evidence supporting the use of: Cyanidin
For the health condition: Alzheimer's Disease
Synopsis
Source of validity: Scientific
Rating (out of 5): 2
Cyanidin is an anthocyanin flavonoid found in various fruits and vegetables, such as berries and red cabbage. Its use in supporting or treating Alzheimer’s Disease is justified to a limited extent by scientific evidence, particularly from preclinical (animal and in vitro) studies. Cyanidin has shown antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, which are hypothesized to protect neuronal cells against oxidative stress and inflammation—two key contributors to Alzheimer’s pathology. Some studies report that cyanidin can inhibit the aggregation of beta-amyloid, a protein central to Alzheimer’s Disease progression, and may also help reduce neuroinflammation and promote neuronal survival in laboratory models.
However, there is a lack of robust clinical evidence in humans. No large-scale, high-quality randomized controlled trials have demonstrated that cyanidin supplementation can prevent, treat, or significantly ameliorate Alzheimer’s symptoms in people. Most of the supporting evidence comes from animal models or cell cultures, which do not always translate into clinical efficacy. Therefore, while the use of cyanidin for Alzheimer’s Disease is rooted in its demonstrated biological activities in experimental systems, current evidence in humans is insufficient, and its use should be considered experimental rather than established or recommended for this condition.
