Memory lapses are quite common; however, they often provoke fear of more serious
problems. Most often memory lapses are not harbingers of Alzheimer's disease,
stoke, or dementia, but are natural occurrence at any age. Many people expect
that as they age their memory and recall powers will diminish. This may not necessarily
be true as scientific studies clearly demonstrate that memory loss may be substantially
reduced by proper diet and nutrition. With proper diet and nutrition, there is
convincing evidence that people can maintain active lives and mental alertness
well into their autumn years.
Here are some of the benefits the makers of Memory
Boost claim result form using the product:
-
Increase memory.
-
Improve mental performance.
-
Increase reaction time.
-
Stimulate central nervous system.
-
Enhance mental clarity.
-
Deter degenerative age related diseases such as dementia
and senility.
-
Optimize cognitive skills.
-
Promote blood circulation to the brain.
-
Maintain brain cell integrity.
-
Slow brain Ageing.
Memory loss is frequently due to an insufficient supply of essential
nutrients to the brain. Blood carries nutrients to the brain. High
cholesterol and triglyceride levels impair nutrient-rich blood from
reaching the brain. Neurotransmitters, the chemicals in the brain
responsible for all body functions, are dependent upon nutrients.
Nutritional depravation starves the brain, and is a major factor
in the deterioration of memory.
Memory lapses are quite common; however, they often provoke fear of more serious
problems.
In addition to dietary considerations to reduce cholesterol and
triglycerides, optimal cognitive function can be enhanced by a synergistic
combination of nutrients provided in MD Healthline's Memory Boost. Each
ingredient in Memory Boost has been subjected to rigorous scientific
analysis and testing. The ingredients have been specially formulated
to enhance the effects of each other. Memory Boostis a product of
the latest cutting edge state of the art nutritional research and
is a proprietary formulation of MD Healthline.
The memory improving and circulation enhancing properties of Memory
Boost consist of the following ingredients:
Niacinamide is a supplement form of Vitamin B-3, is used to
lower harmful blood lipids, namely cholesterol, triglycerides, and lipoproteins
and to raise HDL (good cholesterol).
Pantothenic Acid is a key brain vitamin better known as Vitamin
B-5. It is used in the manufacture of red blood cells, hormones, and acetylcholine.
Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter responsible for carrying signals between
nerve cells in the brain.
Vitamin B-12 deficiency results in impaired nerve function,
that can cause impaired mental function. Vitamin B-12 deficiency is common in
the elderly and may be a contributing factor in depression. Left untreated,
Vitamin B-12 deficiency may lead to impaired neurological and cognitive function.
Manganese is an essential trace mineral primarily found in
the bone, liver, pancreas, and brain. Manganese deficiency has been traced to
abnormalities in brain function. Laboratory studies have demonstrated that Manganese
superoxide dimutase, an antioxidant enzyme containing manganese, protects brain
cells from the type of damage seen in stoke and Alzheimer's disease.
Huperzine A is an ancient Chinese remedy used for fever and
inflammation. Modern scientific investigation has found a new use for this moss
plant (Huperzia serrata) to treat Alzheimer's disease. Huperzine A, an
alkaloid isolated from the plant increases memory by preventing the breakdown
of acetylcholine by inhibiting the responsible enzyme (acetyl-cholinesterase).
Conventional medicine utilizes other drugs such as Tacrine and Donepezil to
inhibit the same enzyme, but Huperzine A is more selective and much less toxic
than the synthetic acetylcholinesterase inhibitors used in conventional medicine.
Clinical studies indicate that Huperzine A is safe and beneficial for memory
deficits.
Ginkgo Biloba is an ancient Chinese herb. It was brought to
Europe in the 1700's and is currently a commonly prescribed drug in France and
Germany. Abundant controlled clinical studies supports its use to improve memory.
Ginkgo increases blood flow to the brain, especially the cerebellum, thereby
enhancing neurotransmitters by increasing oxygen levels. Enhanced blood circulation
to the brain improves short and long-term memory, increases reaction time, and
increases mental acuity. Clinical uses of Ginkgo include treating early stroke
and senility, vertigo, tinnitus, embolism, and some eye disorders including
macular degeneration and diabetic vascular disease. Studies indicate that Ginkgo
also increases alertness and mental responsiveness in healthy people.
Phosphatidyl Serine (PS) is a category of fat-soluble substances
called phospholipids found in high concentrations in the brain. It may help
preserve or even improve memory loss, improve learning, and increase concentration.
Numerous double blind studies on PS indicate that it can also benefit depression
and stress with no adverse side effects.
DMAE (2-dimethylaminoethanol) is an acetylcholine precursor.
Studies indicate that DMAE can reduce lipofusican (cellular garbage) in brain
cells, and increase levels of the brain neurotransmitter acetylcholine. Double
blind studies have shown significant benefits of DMAE for people suffering with
Alzheimer's disease. Studies also indicate that DMAE plays a role in promoting
a prolonged level of attentiveness. In general, DMAE is associated with mental
focus, memory, and mood enhancement. DMAE is nontoxic and there have been no
reported side effects with doses of less than 1,600 mg per day.
Acetyl Choline (ACh) is produced from Choline and Pantothenic
Acid. It is one of the principal brain neurotransmitters. Without ACh, no messages
would be amplified for delivery throughout the central nervous system. ACh enables
the brain to change the synaptic strength in response to stimuli that leave
a memory trace. It is critical for cognitive development and for the normal
development of the brain.
L-Tyrosine is a nonessential amino acid. It is a protein building
block that is important to the structure of almost all proteins in the body.
It is also a precursor of several neurotransmitters including epinephrine, norepinephrine,
dopamine, and L-dopamine. Studies indicate that L-Tyrosine, along with other
amino acids, is beneficial for people affected by dementia including Alzheimer's
disease.
Gotu Kola has been an important herb in the medicinal systems
of Asia for centuries. In Sri Lanka it was purported to prolong life, increase
energy, and boost mental processes. Recent studies have shown that Gotu Kola
has memory enhancing properties. Gotu Kola is also used to keep veins strong,
and reduce symptoms of connective tissue diseases.
Memory Boost is manufactured in the United States under exacting
health standards and regulations. Each ingredient is tested for
purity before it is utilized.
