(cognitive enhancer and brain protector) and remains the most popular cognitive enhancer for general use. It is a solid foundation for any cognitive enhancement regimen due to the broad range of positive clinically proven biochemical effects on brain function as well as cardiovascular health. It can be used by people of all ages.
Overview
May help positively supports normal healthy cognitive & cardiovascular functioning by a multifaceted means of action.

Is recommended by many healthcare professionals and health organizations, such as the Life Extension Foundation and the American Academy of Anti-aging Medicine (A4M).*
Cognitive Effects
Enhances brain metabolism (By increasing glucose utilization, blood & oxygen flow) [Boosts mental energy & cerebral circulation].
Increases cerebral phospholipids & cellular membrane fluidity [Supports healthy neuron communication & structure].
Supports cognitive receptors [Strengthens neurotransmitter receptors involved in memory and neuro-protection].
Stimulates the Corpus Callosum, an area of the brain that controls communication between the left and right hemispheres (Increases communication between both hemispheres) [Involved in speech and creative thinking].
Stimulates the Locus Coeruleus, (specialized neurons) [Involved in information processing, attention, cortical/behavioral arousal, learning and memory]
Inhibits platelet aggregation [Supports healthy blood flow].
Decreases EEG complexity (Increases cooperatively of brain functional processing) [Positively effects neuro-electrical functioning].
Has a significant antioxidant effect.
Dosage
The standard lower dose is 800 mg taken 2-3 times a day. For advance usage take 6-12 capsules daily or as needed divided in 2-3 doses. For long term usage it may be best to take weekend breaks.
