The cells in your brain that power the strength of your memory are susceptible to deterioration. As your oxygen intake decreases, certain key nutrients are missing from the body and free radicals damage your healthy cells. When this happens, your body's natural supply of Choline is depleted. Choline is essential for healthy brain function.
While brain function can be somewhat sharpened by performing problem solving tasks or mental exercises, what can be done about these very real, physical problems that effect short and long-term memory? The most important thing one can do is give your body the nutrients it needs to produce its own healthy levels of Choline….which is exactly what the ingredients in Neurostin™ do…
L-Alpha Glycerylphosphorylcholine
(Alpha-GPC) increases brain function by boosting the body's production of Choline. The Choline is then used to make cholinergic neurons. These neurons are responsible for supporting short-term memory. When the brain has Alpha-GPC to turn into sufficient Choline, the cells that make up your short and long-term memory are fortified. Choline is probably the most important nutrient for optimal cognitive functioning, because it fuels the neurotransmitter responsible for our basic mental functions, like thinking and memory.
Alpha-GPC has been used in a total of 22 clinical trials involving more than 4,000 subjects, who have all shown extremely positive results in mental alertness, reasoning, information processing, enhanced memory, reversing of memory loss and general mental performance.
Phosphatidylserine makes sure nerve impulses are conducted properly, and it aids in the accumulation, storage and release of neurotransmitters. By maintaining neurotransmitter function and promoting nerve impulses, your memory remains healthy and intact. Phosphatidylserine also plays a key role in the maintenance of the nervous system by assisting your brain cells to more effectively absorb nutrients. Since Phosphatidylserine helps nourish cells and allows messages to be transmitted between nerves more quickly, it is essential in improving the overall health of your brain.
16 double-blind studies have been conducted in the U.S. and Europe using Phosphatidylserine. All of the clinical studies showed success for its cognitive enhancing effects.
Since poor circulation may be one of the many causes of decreased memory, it is important to add a natural circulatory enhancer. This is why Neurostin™ contains the extract
Vinpocetine. This derivative of the periwinkle plant relaxes the muscles of the body, thereby allowing blood to flow more freely and more oxygen to reach the brain. Multiple clinical studies have proven that Vinpocetine greatly enhances cerebral blood flow.
Folic Acid, Vitamins B6 and B12 are responsible for regulating the level of homocysteine in your body. Elderly individuals often have elevated homocysteine levels and this is one of the main reasons why they experience rapid memory loss when the problem starts. In a large clinical study conducted for 8 years with 1092 individuals, those with the highest homocysteine levels were the ones who developed dementia and Alzheimer's. The study concluded that keeping homocysteine at a steady level may greatly decrease your risk of long-term memory loss and even Alzheimer's.
Green Tea and Alpha Lipoic Acid are both added to Neurostin™ because of their powerful antioxidant effect. The polyphenols, flavonoids and catechins in Green Tea battle free radicals that can destroy healthy brain tissue. Alpha Lipoic Acid not only counteracts free radicals, but it is also a precursor for other, more powerful antioxidants.
Pantothenic Acid (Vitamin B5) is another key component that helps your body produce Choline. Remember, without sufficient Choline levels your body cannot properly maintain the cells that comprise your short and long term memory.
