Highly standardized plant extracts and active nutrients to improve cognitive function and memory in your aging population. Contains a comprehensive blend of ingredients designed to support cognition and memory. Phosphatidylserine, Bacopa, and Alpha-GPC are included to upregulate acetylcholine production and improve cognitive markers such as memory, attention, mood, and reaction time. Alpha-lipoic acid is able to cross the blood-brain barrier and protect the brain from oxidative damage. Ginkgo is added to improve blood flow to the brain. Vitamin B6, B12, and folate are provided for nervous system support and homocysteine reduction. Brain-Matrix is a comprehensive blend of ingredients designed to support cognition and memory with aging. With the average life expectancy increasing, it has never been more imperative to focus on cognitive health. Brain-Matrix includes herbs and nutrients that upregulate brain levels of acetylcholine, the neurotransmitter necessary for good memory and learning. For example, bacopa monnieri has been shown not only to increase acetylcholine levels, but also to improve working memory, reaction times, verbal recall, and comprehension speed. At the same time, alpha-glycerophosphorocholine (also known as Alpha-GPC) is included in the formula to provide a highly absorbed form of choline to be used as a building block for neurotransmitter production. As many people know, the human brain is primarily made of adipose tissue and requires various phospholipids to function. As such, Brain Matrix includes phosphatidylserine, a fat-soluble compound necessary for communication between brain cells, called neurons. Clinical research has shown that phosphatidylserine can enhance the release of not only acetylcholine, but also serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine. Phosphatidylserine has been shown to improve learning and recall in people with age-related memory impairment. Ginkgo biloba is included in Brain.Matrix to improve blood flow to the brain, allowing for better delivery of fuel (such as glucose and oxygen) and the removal of waste. Essentially, ginkgo improves energy delivery and protection for the brain. Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) in the formulation acts as a powerful antioxidant to also protect the brain from the damaging effects of free radicals and heavy metals. Finally, Brain-Matrix provides vitamin B6, B12, and folate for nervous system support and the reduction of homocysteine, a known neurotoxin. Available in capsule form for optimal absorption, it is clear that Brain-Matrix collectively supports healthy cognition through many different mechanisms.
