MAIN ACTIVE MENTAL VITALITY ingredients |

Panax ginseng For more than two thousand years, the roots of this slow-growing plant have been valued in Chinese medicine. The two most commonly used species are Asian ginseng ( Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer), which is mostly extinct in its natural range but is still cultivated, and American ginseng ( P. quinquefolius L.), Several studies report that ginseng can reasonably improve thinking or learning. Mental performance has been assessed using standardized measurements of reaction time, concentration, learning, math, and logic. Benefits have been seen both in healthy young people and in older ill patients. |

curcumin 95% Curcumin is the principal curcuminoid of the curry spice turmeric Curcumin is known for its antitumor, antioxidant, antiarthritic, anti-amyloid and anti-inflammatory properties. A 2004 UCLA-Veterans Affairs study involving genetically altered mice suggests that curcumin might inhibit the accumulation of destructive beta-amyloid in the brains of Alzheimer's disease patients and also break up existing plaques associated with the disease. |

Folic acid Folate (folic acid) is necessary for the production and maintenance of new cells. This is especially important during periods of rapid cell division and growth such as infancy and pregnancy. Folate is needed to replicate DNA. Thus folate deficiency hinders DNA synthesis and cell division. Memory and mental agility: In a 3-year trial on 818 people over the age of 50, short-term memory, mental agility and verbal fluency were all found to be better among people who took 800 micrograms of folic acid daily ... than those who took placebo. The study was reported in The Lancet on 19 January 2007. |

Inositol (hexaphosphate & hexaniacinate) Inositol (can be found in the form hexaphosphate & hexaniacinate) plays an important role as the structural basis for a number of secondary messengers in human cells. It is found in many foods, particularly in cereals with high bran content, nuts, beans, and fruit, especially cantaloupe melons and oranges. It is also noticeably present in popular "boost" drinks such as Red Bull. Inositol as the basis for a number of signaling and secondary messenger molecules, is involved in a number of biological processes, including: insulin signal transduction, nerve guidance, serotonin activity modulation, breakdown of fats and reducing blood cholesterol, etc. |

CDP CHOLINE Choline is an organic compound, classified as an essential nutrient and usually grouped within the Vitamin B complex. This natural amine is found in the lipids that make up cell membranes and in the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. Choline supplements are often taken as a form of 'smart drug', due to the the role that the neurotransmitter acetylcholine plays in various cognition systems within the brain. Choline is a chemical precursor or "building block" needed to produce the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, and research suggests that memory, intelligence and mood are mediated at least in part by acetylcholine metabolism in the brain. |

HUPERZINE A Huperzine A, is naturally occurring and found in the extracts of the firmoss Huperzia serrata. The botanical has been used in China for centuries for the treatment of swelling, fever and blood disorders. Recently in clinical trials in China, it has demonstrated neuroprotective effects. It is currently being investigated as a possible treatment for diseases characterized by neurodegeneration – particularly Alzheimer’s disease. Huperzine A has attracted the attention of Western medical science. It has been found to be an inhibitor of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase. This is the same mechanism of action of pharmaceutical drugs such as galantamine and donepezil used to treat Alzheimer's disease. |

Phosphatidylcholine Phosphatidylcholine, a primary component of lecithin is converted in the brain into the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. (similar to CDP Choline above) Researchers have found acetylcholine to be the primary carrier of memory. Acetylcholine is generally found to be deficient in people with age-related memory impairment. Memory is stored in neurons in the brain, and a deficiency of acetylcholine can result in ineffective transport of memory across neurons, potentially resulting in a fragmentation of memory. |

phosphatidylserine Phosphatidyl Serine provides powerful support to optimum brain function. This multi-tasking phospholipid is a major structural component of neural membranes that assists in the conduction of electrical impulses, and moreover plays a key role in the absorption of nutrients essential for optimal cognitive function. As we age our natural production of Phosphatidyl Serine slows and as a result, our ability to learn and concentrate gradually declines. Phosphatidyl Serine has also been proven to inhibit the secretion of cortisol, a hormone often found viciously elevated in individuals who are frequently stressed and depressed. |

THIAMINE (B1) Thiamine or thiamin, also known as vitamin B1, is one of the B vitamins. Thiamine aids the nervous system and is essential for the functioning of important enzymes. Thiamine is essential for the transmission of certain types of nerve signal between the brain and the spinal cord. Depression, poor memory, muscle weakness and stiffness, nerve tingling, burning sensation and numbness, tiredness, headache, loss of appetite and nausea are some of the symptoms and signs of Thiamine deficiency. |

DMAE (dimethylethanolamine) Dimethylaminoethanol, also known as DMAE or dimethylethanolamine, is an organic compound. Dimethylaminoethanol is related to choline and is a biochemical precursor to the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, and found naturally in fishes like sardines and anchovies. It is reported to have "cognitive enhancing" effects. |

RIBOFLAVIN (B2) Riboflavin is required by the body to use oxygen and the metabolism of amino acids, fatty acids, and carbohydrates. A shortage of this vitamin may cause dizziness, hair loss, insomnia, light sensitivity, poor digestion, retarded growth, and slow mental responses have also been reported. |

PANTOTHENIC ACID (B5) Pantothenic acid, also called vitamin B5 , is a water-soluble vitamin required to sustain life. Pantothenic acid is needed to form coenzyme-A (CoA), and is critical in the metabolism and synthesis of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Sufferers of Vitamin B5 deficiency may experience symptoms like fatigue, headaches, nausea, tingling in the hands, depression, personality changes and cardiac instability. Frequent infection, fatigue, abdominal pains, sleep disturbances and neurological disorders including numbness, paresthesia (abnormal sensation such as "burning feet" syndrome), muscle weakness and cramps are also possible indications of Vitamin B5 deficiency |
||||||||||||
|
VITAMIN E Vitamin E deficiency can develop into very serious problems, such as poor transmission of nerve impulses, muscle weakness, and degeneration of the retina that can cause blindness. An observational trial conducted by The Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health found that when vitamin E is taken daily in large doses in combination with vitamin C the onset of Alzheimer's was reduced between 64 and 78% |

organic rice bran Sarsaparilla shows diuretic and laxative effects, which may make it useful in promoting the loss of excess water from the body and also in treating mild constipation. |

|
bioperine The medicinal properties of curcumin obtained from cannot be utilized because of poor bioavailability due to its rapid metabolism in the liver and intestinal wall. When combining piperine (Bioperine) with curcumin, the bioavailability of curcumin increases significantly. |
