Brain Elevate - 60 Capsules - Now Foods

To improve cognitive performance and memory, especially in the elderly.

Therapeutic Indications:

• Combats physical fatigue and intellectual fatigue
• Promotes good cognitive function health
• Improves microcirculation in the brain

It has recently been discovered that Huperzine (a rare moss extract) has the ability to prevent the degradation of Acetylcholine – a chemical present in the brain that plays a crucial role in cognitive function and memory.
By combining this extract with a patented blend of natural substances that help protect neuronal tissue and improve blood flow (RoseOx®, Leci-PS®, Ginkgo Biloba, L-Glutamine among others), Brain Elevate™ by NOW® is one of the reference products in terms of brain supplementation at an international level.

It is a particularly beneficial supplement for improving cognitive performance and memory, especially in the elderly. RoseOx® is a soluble extract of Rosemary leaves (Rosmarinus officinalis L) standardized to a minimum of 6% carnosic acid, a powerful antioxidant.

™ It is the first of a new generation of antioxidants with a cascade effect. The cascade effect refers to the unique ability to transform into a series of progressively active forms, which can help create a longer-lasting result.
Rose Ox™ has the added ability to help regenerate other antioxidants, including vitamin E, that do not have this advantage. Phosphatidylserine is a phospholipid that occurs naturally in the brain and prevents the destruction of myelin sheaths, (the lipoprotein layer that covers nerves) which is essential for neuronal function.

Leci-PS™ contains 90% phosphatidylserine (PS) and is the highest concentration of PS available on the market. PS is a negatively charged membrane component present in all biological membranes of animals, higher plants and microorganisms. It has unique properties within the body, especially within the brain, where it ensures the proper functioning of all nerve cells. Leci-PS™ is produced in Europe under the observation of pharma GMP and application of HACCP principles.

Ginkgo Biloba improves microcirculation in the brain. Ginkgo extract protects arteries, veins and capillaries by reducing vascular permeability and having anti-thrombotic, anti-ischemic and anti-edematous activity (prevents swelling).

It reduces the permeability of blood vessels and relaxes them, improving blood supply to tissues. It prevents atherosclerosis, promoting healthy blood circulation. By inhibiting platelet aggregation, it is also used to prevent heart attacks and thrombosis.

L-Glutamine promotes a sense of well-being and is a precursor to Dopamine. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter and a natural precursor to adrenaline and noradrenaline. Its function is to stimulate the Central Nervous System. Gotu Kola improves blood flow and the resistance of capillaries. The beneficial effect of this plant in the treatment of varicose veins and venous insufficiency is due to its ability to strengthen the structure of the connective tissues surrounding the veins, reduce their hardening and improve blood flow through the vessels. By strengthening the structure of the tissues, Gotu Kola also reduces sclerosis.

Choline is a precursor of the neurotransmitter Acetylcholine, which allows for improved cognitive and memory functions. It is of great importance during pregnancy for the formation of brain tissue.
