Product Description
The healthy adult brain is commonly thought to contain as many as 100 billion nerve cells, and you can supercharge their performance with focused nutrition. Cognitex® Elite Pregnenolone provides a steady supply of these compounds to support brain health as you age.
SIBELIUS™: SAGE extract for attention and memory
Sage extract is known to promote healthy levels of the essential neurotransmitter acetylcholine and other neurochemicals needed for optimal brain function. It also supports mood and cognitive performance.1,2 Our Cognitex® Elite formula uses SIBELIUS™ Sage, a novel type of sage extract, which has been clinically studied to encourage healthy brain and cognitive function.
In a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical study, SIBELIUS™ Sage improved accuracy of attention, working memory, and recognition and recall.3 SIBELIUS™ Sage has even been shown to enhance feelings of calmness and contentedness.1
Phosphatidylserine supports optimal brain cell function
Phosphatidylserine , an essential component of healthy cell membranes, is critical to brain metabolism and function, and supports brain-cell-to-brain-cell communication.4,5 It promotes healthy cognitive function, healthy memory, concentration, attention and more.6-10
Ashwagandha for stress and mental performance
The ashwagandha plant (Withania somnifera) is one of the most-studied Indian herbs. Clinical trials indicate that ashwagandha promotes both brain and mood health. It can increase stress resilience promoting calmness and making it easier to handle daily challenges.11-13
Ashwagandha has been clinically studied to encourage aspects of healthy memory, cognition and mental performance such as attention, executive function and information processing speed.14,15
Maintain mental focus and boost mood with pregnenolone
The neurohormone pregnenolone helps to maintain healthy youthful cognitive function, attention and memory performance.16-18 In fact, pregnenolone has even been thought of as a neurotransmitter.17 It has also been shown to support healthy, positive mood.19,20
One way pregnenolone may be able to accomplish all this is by encouraging something called synaptic plasticity which is a key characteristic of youthful brains and brain function.17
Enhance brain function with AuroraBlue®
Blueberry phytonutrients can help inhibit age-related decline in cognitive and motor function.21,22 Wild blueberry extracts have been shown to inhibit oxidative and inflammatory factors in brain cells to support memory health.23,24
Our formula uses AuroraBlue®, a whole-food complex of various blueberry species from the pristine Alaskan tundra, with powerful antioxidant properties compared with generic wild blueberry extracts.
Vinpocetine for cognitive function
Several clinical trials have demonstrated that vinpocetine, an alkaloid derived from the periwinkle plant, can support healthy brain blood flow, memory, concentration and overall cognitive function.25-28
Uridine-5'-Monophosphate supports healthy brain function
Pre-clinical studies have found that uridine-5’-monophosphate supports the essential neurotransmitters acetylcholine and dopamine and can encourage healthy learning and memory.29-31
