Memoractiv

Nutritional Support for Enhanced Cognitive Function

Aging can be associated with functional changes in the brain, resulting from detrimental influences such as free radical damage, nutrient deficiencies, unwise lifestyle choices (e.g., smoking or alcohol), and emotional stress. For many people, beginning in mid-life, these changes can cause a slow, progressive decline in higher brain functions such as memory, concentration, and verbal ability. Providing nutrition that promotes structural integrity and optimizes cognitive functioning is a prudent course of action to protect the brain from these changes. Memoractiv – a synergistic blend of phosphatidyl-serine, acetyl-L-carnitine, Ginkgo biloba, Bacopa monniera, and vinpocetine – combines the most widely studied supplements known to promote brain health.

PHOSPHATIDYLSERINE

Phosphatidylserine is essential for nerve cell membranes to maintain the environment required for optimal brain function. Abundant clinical research has shown this nutrient to be of primary importance in optimizing cognitive function in the aging brain.

GINKGO BILOBA

Ginkgo biloba enhances mental alertness, reaction time, memory, and cognition. Many studies have shown Ginkgo improves mental functioning in individuals with age-related memory loss and mild-tomoderate dementia. These functional improvements are likely due to Ginkgo’s ability to improve circulation and protect nerve tissue from oxidative damage.

ACETYL-L-CARNITINE

Acetyl-L-carnitine readily crosses the blood-brain barrier, subsequently improving mitochondrial energetics, preventing oxidative damage from free radicals, and enhancing cholinergic neurotransmission. A number of double-blind studies point to its utility in enhancing brain function in those experiencing cognitive decline.

BACOPA MONNIERA

Bacopa monniera is a nerve tonic from Ayurvedic medicine traditionally used to improve learning and enhance memory. It has been shown to have nerve-protecting antioxidant properties, and has demonstrated increased exploratory behavior and improved recall and reaction time in children. Investigators believe it may exert these effects by enhancing structural changes that occur in nerve cells in response to memory-provoking stimuli.

VINPOCETINE

An alkaloid from Vinca minor (Lesser Periwinkle), vinpocetine has been used clinically in Europe and Asia for over 20 years. Vinpocetine selectively enhances cerebral circulation and oxygen utilization, and protects neurons by increasing the brain’s ability to function in situations of low oxygen tension, with the end result being enhanced cognitive performance. This alkaloid inhibits phosphodiesterase and platelet aggregation, and supports red blood cell fluidity.
