BrainWave Plus™ is a balanced formula of "smart nutrients" designed to enhance ones mental faculties. The formula is based on the most current research on the underlying mechanisms of neuro-cognitive supportive nutrients. BrainWave Plus™ contains nutrients which collectively are involved in supporting a variety of mental functions including: blood circulation, neurotransmitter activity and production, which in turn supports mental alertness, mood improvement, memory and learning, to name a few. The latest additions to BrainWave Plus™ include Huperzine A (Huperzia seratta), a traditional Chinese herb (Chien Tseng Ta) which in one study, was said to have significant beneficial effects in quality of life and memory retrieval for patients involved in the study who had previously been experiencing various memory disorders. CDP-Choline (Cytidine 5-diphosphocholine) quickly crosses the blood-brain barrier, increasing levels of neurotransmitters, enhancing cerebral energy metabolism, and activating the synthesis of critical components of cell membranes. Vinpocetine, an extract of Periwinkle, supports memory function by increasing circulation in the brain and increasing the rate at which brain cells produce ATP.* Experiments have shown it to be protective to brain cells. Baco Pin (Bacopa monniera) is an Ayurvedic herb used in India for 3,000 years for enhancing memory capacity, and to improve intellectual and cognitive functions.
