Acute and Chronic Effects of
Green Oat ( Avena sativa) Extract on Cognitive Function and Mood During a
Laboratory Stressor in Healthy Adults: A Randomised, Double-Blind,
Placebo-Controlled Study in Healthy Humans - Nutrients 2020 May 29 -
"Previous research has demonstrated improvements in
cognitive function following a single dose of these extracts, but not following
chronic supplementation. Additionally, whilst green oat extracts contain
phytochemicals that may improve mood or protect against stress, for instance
species-specific triterpene saponins, to date this possibility has not been
examined. The current study investigated the effects of a single dose and four
weeks of administration of a novel, Avena sativa herbal extract (cognitaven®) on
cognitive function and mood, and changes in psychological state during a
laboratory stressor. The study adopted a dose-ranging, double-blind, randomised,
parallel groups design in which 132 healthy males and females (35 to 65 years)
received either 430 mg, 860 mg, 1290 mg green oat extract or placebo for 29 days
... both a single dose of 1290 mg and, to a greater extent, supplementation for
four weeks with both 430 mg and 1290 mg green oat extract resulted in
significantly improved performance on a computerised version of the Corsi Blocks
working memory task and a multitasking task (verbal serial subtractions and
computerised tracking) in comparison to placebo. After four weeks, the highest
dose also decreased the physiological response to the stressor in terms of
electrodermal activity. There were no treatment-related effects on mood. These
results confirm the acute cognitive effects of Avena sativa extracts and are the
first to demonstrate that chronic supplementation can benefit cognitive function
and modulate the physiological response to a stressor" - See

green-oat (Avena sativa) extract on cognitive function in middle-aged adults: A
double-blind, placebo-controlled, within-subjects trial - Nutr Neurosci.
2015 Nov 30 - "A wild green-oats extract (Neuravena®) containing a range of
potentially bioactive components, including flavonoids and triterpene saponins,
has previously been shown to enhance animal stress responses and memory, and
improve cognitive performance in humans at a dose of 1600 mg ... The results
showed that 800mg GOE increased the speed of performance across post-dose
assessments on a global measure including data from all of the timed tasks. It
also improved performance of a delayed word recall task in terms of errors and
an executive function task (Peg and Ball) in terms of decreased thinking time
and overall completion time. Working memory span (Corsi blocks) was also
increased, but only on the second occasion that this dose was taken" - [Nutra
