Managing symptoms of memory loss can be overwhelming; fortunately, iTunes offers many health apps for the iPad that help, whether you suffer from memory loss caused by vitamin B12 deficiency, Alzheimer’s disease, or chronic pain comorbidities.

Top 10 Memory Loss Apps for your iPad- B12 Patch

With its easy-to-use touch-screen features, the iPad has become one of the most fundamental tools for daily life management. This is especially true in the medical world, as patients can easily access information about illnesses, health information, and updated medical treatments.

If you suffer from frequent memory loss, then you can take advantage of many iTunes apps that can remind you to take your vitamins and medications, schedule a doctor’s visit, or keep track of important dates.

If memory loss is caused by vitamin B12 deficiency, then it helps to understand more about neurological symptoms that are associated with low vitamin B12 levels, or the positive effect that vitamin B12 supplementation has on Alzheimer’s disease.

Other iTunes apps that may help include brain games that enhance cognitive functioning skills, or e-book readers such as Kindle that are compatible with the iPad.
