What's inside:

• Full multivitamin base: B vitamins, vitamins A, C, D, E, magnesium, zinc, chromium, and more.
• Phosphatidylserine: A structural component of neuron membranes. A 2010 randomized trial in the Journal of Clinical Biochemistry and Nutrition measured memory and cognitive function in older adults over 6 months.
• Huperzine A: From Huperzia serrata. Slows the breakdown of acetylcholine, which the brain uses for memory and attention.
• Bacopa extract: Memory support. Give it 8 to 12 weeks.
• DMAE and choline: Used by the body to make acetylcholine.
• DHA: An omega-3 fatty acid used in neuron membranes.

The science:

Phosphatidylserine is the ingredient with a named human trial on this page. A 2010 randomized trial in the Journal of Clinical Biochemistry and Nutrition found that phosphatidylserine improved memory and cognitive function in older adults over 6 months.

Consumption of phosphatidylserine may reduce the risk of cognitive dysfunction in the elderly.

Very limited and preliminary scientific research suggests that phosphatidylserine may reduce the risk of cognitive dysfunction in the elderly. FDA concludes that there is little scientific evidence supporting this claim.

Consumption of phosphatidylserine may reduce the risk of dementia in the elderly.

Huperzine A is from Huperzia serrata moss. A 1999 randomized trial in Zhongguo Yao Li Xue Bao measured memory and learning in adolescents.
