Dear Michela, 


Omegor Mind is a dietary supplement useful as a tonic for memory and cognitive function in the over-55s or children with learning disabilities, thanks to the presence of Bacopa monnieri extract, a well-known plant in traditional medicine. I confirm that. Omegor Mind can be used by your grandmother, as it does not contain glucose and the intake of omega-3 fatty acids, present in this supplement is not contraindicated in case of diabetes, high blood pressure and cholesterol; on the contrary: EPA and DHA help to reduce the inflammatory state typical of diabetic disease, to promote the increase of "good" HDL cholesterol and to stabilize heart rate and rhythm. However, I recommend that you consult with your doctor regarding your intention to follow supplementation with Omegor Mind especially in case your grandmother is on some kind of drug therapy.
