Summary |
Brain Research Labs is a manufacturer of supplements that claims to the leader in cognitive health and performance. Procera AVH is just one of the several brain supplements manufactured by this company, and it is advertised to focus on the performance of the brain, as well as improve and enhance moods. We will take a closer look at Procera AVH below to determine if this supplement appears capable of improving brain performance and one’s mood as the advertisements claim.

 | Ingredients At A Glance |
|
According to the company website, Procera AVH is said to contain the following ingredients: Vinpocetine, which is a natural extract from the periwinkle flower; Huperzine A, which is derived from Chinese Club Moss and said to keep the synapses firing fast and efficiently; and Acetyl –L Carnitine, which is already naturally found in the body and brain, but some believe that additional supplementation can protect the health of the brain even more.

 | Ingredients in Focus |
|
We would have to say that the stand out ingredient in Procera AVH appears to be Vinpocetine. This flower extract has been shown in several clinical studies to relax the muscles of the body to allow blood to flow more freely to the brain and also to allow oxygen to travel up the brain more readily. Addressing circulation is actually incredibly important when it comes to addressing the health and the function of the brain. Not only does blood carry essential nutrients that the brain needs to operate, but poor circulation has been linked to memory loss, and some believe that bad circulation is actually the biggest cause of this problem.
While there is no doubt that Vinpocetine is a powerful brain supplement ingredient, we couldn’t help but wonder if this formula would be more effective if it also contained Alpha GPC. This ingredient has also been studied in several clinical trials and the end results show that Alpha GPC can increase and improve mental awareness, reasoning, information processing and general cognitive functions. In addition, studies show that Alpha GPC can increase the amount of Choline in the brain, which in turn can enhance short term and long term memory. While Procera AVH does not combine this quality ingredient with Vinpocetine, there are other supplements on the market that do.

 | Final Thoughts |
|
Ultimately, it seems that Procera AVH does make some enticing promises to consumers who are interested in improving their overall mental capabilities. While we do feel this product contains some quality ingredients, we also feel that the formula could be far more powerful if Procera AVH also contained Alpha GPC. There are plenty of other options on the market for those consumers who want to continue their product search. However, people who are interested in Procera AVH can visit the company website for more information. As mentioned above, this supplement currently costs about $50 and comes with a 30 day money back guarantee.
