Vitamin B12 works in blood and nerve cells.* Neurological function,
such as brain, spinal and optic nerves, and proper blood cell
functioning require vitamin B12.* For the heart, vitamin B12 helps
maintain healthy homocysteine levels in the blood.* It also helps
restore energy levels.*
Methylcobalamin is the active, functional form of vitamin B12 and
the sublingual delivery ensures better utilization* (most B12 vitamin
supplements are cyanocobalamin and rely on conversion for use). There
are many reasons to supplement with methylcobalamin; vegetarians,
seniors, people with gastrointestinal concerns, post medical
procedures, and those with the genetic susceptibility to low vitamin
B12 all can benefit.*
DMAE (dimethylaminoethanol) is a choline precursor and works to enhance levels of acetylcholine, an important neurotransmitter.* Each capsule of DMAE 100 Plus delivers 100 mg of DMAE, plus additional B-complex vitamins to support optimal utilization.* Used to promote healthy cognitive function, prevent cognitive decline, support better behavior in challenged children, help improve mood, clear thinking and memory, and inhibit aging (brown) spots on the skin, DMAE 100 Plus is an often-recommended anti-aging supplement.
A Natural Defense Against the Hidden Causes of Food Intolerance
Some people can tell when a particular food they ate disagreed with
them and they will avoid it, while others have been eating foods that
have been slowly eroding their health without noticing it because they
have become used to the low grade inflammation in their GI tracts. Many
common symptoms are really the result of the lectin interactions with
our immune systems. An example of a common lectin that many have heard
of is gluten or gliadin. Some of the post-meal reactions to lectins are:
• Headaches, brain fog, lack of concentration
• Skin problems such as itchiness, eczema, and acne
• Water retention, puffiness around the eyes, extremities
• Bloating – a very common symptom
• Easy weight gain and stubborn weight loss
• Chronic fatigue and post-meal fatigue
• Chronically clearing throat and excess mucous
• Respiratory symptoms like chronic, (non-illness) coughing
• Joint stiffness and pain (particularly in the morning)
• Urinary weakness or chronic inflammation or infection
• Abdominal pain and gas with meals, excessive belching (lectins can also lower the HCL levels impairing digestion)
• Gastric reflux and upset stomach
• Irritable bowel and spastic colon
• Hyperactivity
• Sinus problems, itchy nose, congestion and post-nasal drip
• Insulin shifts affecting blood sugar balance
Lectins are specialized proteins commonly found in fruits,
vegetables, and seafood, and especially in grains, beans and seeds.
They are not degraded by stomach acid or proteolytic enzymes, making
them virtually resistant to digestion. Certain lectins consumed in
everyday foods can bind to cells in the gut and to blood cells,
initiating an inflammatory response and contributing to such problems
as digestive disorders, weight gain, post-meal fatigue and immune
challenges. Lectin Lock™ is a unique blend designed to “lock up”
problematic lectins and safely escort them out of the body. Take with
every meal for better health now as part of a program of prevention for
the future.

Tyrosine is important to the structure of proteins and the precursor of
several neurotransmitters in the body, including dopamine,
norepinephrine and epinephrine. Tyrosine’s effect on neurotransmitters
makes it helpful for maintaining a positive mood.
Use only as directed. Not for use by children, pregnant or lactating
women or by persons with the genetic metabolic disorder of
phenylketonuria (PKU), psychosis, hypertension, pigmented malignant
melanoma, cancer, violent temper, or persons taking prescription MAO
(monoamine oxidase) inhibitor drugs. Excessive consumption of
phenylalanine and/or tyrosine may cause symptoms of over-stimulation:
tremors, rapid heartbeat, irritability or insomnia. In case of
excessive stimulation or insomnia: reduce consumption by half, and
avoid intake during late afternoon or evening hours.
A formula that improves brain function by restoring the outgrowth of neurites on our brain cells. Neurites are the branch-like extensions (axons and dendrites) on brain cells where communication takes place. As we age, a reduction in this neurite network can occur, resulting in a corresponding loss of brain function.
Ability to retain new information – “How do I work the remote again?”
Even hearing and spatial memory (sense of “where I am”) can be affected by neurite loss.
NGF is different from other kinds of brain products. Unlike other formulas NGF enhances brain function by actually improving the structure of brain cells through enhanced neurite outgrowth. Every aspect of brain function can benefit. NGF contains nutrients that have been shown to increase neurite outgrowth and help restore and enhance the structural basis of the brain’s neural communications network.
NGF contains acetyl l-carnitine (ALC) which has been shown to increase nerve growth factor activity as much as 100-fold. ALC increases the number of nerve growth factor receptor sites on brain cells, thereby enhancing the rate of neurite outgrowth. A related compound, acetyl carnitine arginate, works synergistically by mimicking the action of nerve growth factor itself.
Another ingredient, uridine, has been shown to regrow axons and dendrites during growth and development stages, as well as in older animals. Uridine has also been shown to improve cognitive function.
Gotu kola contains several active principals called asiaticosides. These improve cognition in older animals while stimulating axon-dendrite growth and out branching in key areas of the brain. Gotu kola has been used for centuries as a brain tonic in Indian and Chinese medicine and its use has been recorded for 2,000 years.
Gingko biloba has been shown to reduce the free radical oxidative stress produced by the presence of senile plaque in older brains. It is also able to improve undesirable structural changes to neurites caused by the presence of senile plaque. Gingko is a well-known promoter of blood circulation in the brain.

If you are under a physicians care or taking medication, or if you are pregnant or nursing, consult your healthcare professional before using this product.
Clinical studies suggest that phosphatidylserine helps improve cognitive functions that decline with age, including memory, learning, concentration and vocabulary skills.* It may also help control excess cortisol.* CP’s Phosphatidylserine 100 Plus is soy lecithin-based and contains three additional supporting phospholipids: phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylethanolamine.
Taurine is needed by the brain, heart, central nervous system and
skeletal muscles.* Recent research indicates taurine’s role as an
important nerve and muscle interaction regulator. Taurine improves the
utilization of sugar and potentiates the action of insulin.* It also
has beneficial effects on eye and heart health.*
